Use cases
Marketing data management
An e-commerce company acquired a rapidly expanding online retailer, and the marketing team had trouble seeing how their ads were performing across different platforms like Google, Bing, YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn, and X (formerly Twitter), making it difficult to understand which campaigns and channels delivered the best return.
Instead of relying on manual spreadsheets or months-long custom data projects, NovaStyle adopted Data Integration no-code DataOps platform, paired with Snowflake, to consolidate all paid ad data into a centralized analytics hub. Using Data Integration prebuilt connectors and template workflows, they quickly joined and modeled the ad performance data from all major paid search and social platforms.
By integrating CRM and product usage data with ad spend, NovaStyle created a powerful and scalable system to monitor marketing ROI. Legacy and acquired teams have access to real-time campaign insights, enabling NovaStyle to optimize budget allocation, improve ROAS, and accelerate post-merger growth without needing dedicated data engineering resources.
Custom data integration
A logistics and supply chain management company operates across multiple regions, each using different logistics, CRM, and inventory management tools. Data inconsistencies and connector limitations between systems caused reporting delays and prevented leadership from gaining real-time operational insights.
To streamline operations, GFS implemented Data Integration custom data integration platform. They quickly ingested raw data from various APIs—including lesser-known regional systems. They configured custom sources with built-in support for authentication, pagination, and rate limiting, within minutes.
With automated end-to-end workflows, GFS used SQL and Python transformations to build reliable data models. These pipelines fed directly into the cloud data warehouse, offering full visibility into the shipment statuses, inventory levels, and customer interactions. As a result, GFS drastically improved data consistency across regions, cut down reporting delays, and empowered teams to make informed, real-time decisions.
Cloud data migration
A financial services firm needed to migrate its legacy on-premise databases to a modern cloud data warehouse. Their key challenges included managing schema changes, ensuring real-time synchronization, and maintaining data security throughout the migration process.
By leveraging Data Integration Cloud Data Migration solution, NGF executed a low-impact migration using Change Data Capture (CDC), keeping their data fresh and fully synchronized without downtime. Data Integration fine-tuned migration controls enabled them to replicate only relevant data using custom queries, raw data selection, and calculated fields. To address strict security and compliance needs, they used robust and secure transfer options, including private file zones and encrypted network routes.
With Data Integration, NGF achieved a seamless, scalable, and secure transition to the cloud—reducing data lag, minimizing risk, and improving access to real-time analytics across business units.
