Integrate Bigcommerce to Amazon Redshift in minutes

Are you looking for a quick way to transfer data from Bigcommerce to Amazon Redshift? You can perform this data migration easily using an effective ETL tool: Daton.

The complex cross-platform journey of a customer in eCommerce sites has led to confusion among online retailers. It is becoming difficult to decide which channels they want to sell or spend their advertising budget. To reduce losses and optimize their business, it becomes necessary to understand the demand and supply trends, maximize revenue, get more ROIs out of Ad campaigns, and offer an engaging and seamless experience. You need to tally the data from the BigCommerce eCommerce platform and data generated from other apps like customer support platforms, websites, inventory management, payment gateways, and CRMs. BigCommerce eCommerce platform generates numerous data like store overview, merchandising, customer info, orders reports, and abandoned cart details. These marketing details need to be analyzed, including customer feedback, product demand, and user behavior data.

Different tools used in the business create separate data silos. You have to analyze these individually to generate relevant reports, which might be inaccurate due to a considerable time delay. Online retailers reduce the time & effort of reporting and analyzing their multiple data silos by integrating these massive amounts of data from BigCommerce to Amazon Redshift. Integration makes the process of reporting generation and analysis simpler.

 

Why integrate Bigcommerce to Amazon Redshift?

BigCommerce leverages online retailers to sell their products with ease and maximum reach. You can harness the data from BigCommerce to determine the fast-moving and profitable products, relevant keyword search by buyers, productive ads, and many more. Most companies use other apps to automate business, such as Google Analytics, Facebook Ads, payment gateways, Inventory management systems, Chat Interfaces, Sales databases,s and customer support platforms. Without all these applications, it becomes difficult for modern-day businesses to run their different business processes efficiently & smoothly.

These different tools individually generate much data, which you can use to optimize the business further as it provides in-depth business insights like customer feedback, product demands, and Marketing ROIs. All the inventory data, customer feedback, payment gateway, and customer behaviour data need to be consolidated to make an informed decision. Manual data extraction takes much time which delays the analysis report. To solve this issue, relevant data needs from these various data sources need to be replicated from BigCommerce to Amazon Redshift using a Data Pipeline. Daton is a highly automated data pipeline that easily integrates multiple sources that a company may be using. It can automatically fetch data into Amazon Redshift without writing codes.
