CI/CD

Before

Data Warehousing: A Slow & Siloed World?

Traditional data warehousing is all too often burdened with time-consuming manual processes, fragmented workflows and clunky version control. Distributed teams struggle to synchronize their changes, leading to outdated data models & costly reworks.

After

Break the Mold with Agile Pipelines

WhereScape transforms data warehousing by introducing CI/CD capabilities. With RED, we enable ‘Git Friendly’ workflows – pushing JSON metadata and automating push/pull operations – enabling you to ascend to a new plateau of seamless, collaborative development.

Features

CI/CD Features That Accelerate Your Innovation

WhereScape RED provides enhancements designed to integrate with Git and external tools:

Workflow Scripts

Context-sensitive scripts appear in RED’s menus to process lists of objects – enabling actions like automated deployment, external testing and metadata export in a Git-friendly JSON format.

Export Endpoints & CLI Enhancements

New endpoints and command line options such as an ‘Export All’ feature allow for streamlined and automated code extraction and file creation.

Merge Settings for 3D

Control how multiple Source Mapping Sets are merged when deploying from 3D to RED – ensure that only new and relevant changes are applied. Then push onwards to a supported platform, such as Snowflake.

Scheduler API Variables

Leverage variables to trigger job releases via script and integrate seamlessly with external CI/CD tools.
