SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DATA PIPELINE OPTIMIZATION IN AN ANALYTIC APPLICATIONS ENVIRONMENT

Abstract:

In accordance with an embodiment, described herein are systems and methods for data pipeline optimization with an analytic applications environment. The system can determine historical performance data or statistics associated with data pipeline processes recorded over a period of time. The system can automatically determine an order of running jobs associated with the flow of data, while honoring functional dependencies, to reduce or otherwise optimize an overall time to load data to a data warehouse. For example, the system can use the historical data to estimate a time for current or upcoming tasks, or organize various tasks to run in sequence and/or in parallel, to arrive at a minimum time to run an activation plan for one or more tenants. The described approach enables fine-grained monitoring of statistics of ongoing jobs, prediction of potential issues, and communication of alerts where appropriate to address such issues ahead of time.
