Data Fusion's advantages:
Visual interface: Offers a user-friendly interface for designing data pipelines without extensive coding, making it accessible to a wider range of users.
Built-in transformations: Includes a wide range of pre-built transformations to handle common data quality issues, such as:
Data type conversions
Data cleansing (e.g., removing invalid characters, correcting formatting) Data validation (e.g., checking for missing values, enforcing constraints) Data enrichment (e.g., adding derived fields, joining with other datasets) Custom transformations: Allows for custom transformations using SQL or Java code for more complex cleaning tasks.
Scalability: Can handle large datasets efficiently, making it suitable for processing CSV files with potential data quality issues.
Integration with BigQuery: Integrates seamlessly with BigQuery, allowing for direct loading of transformed data.
