As businesses increasingly rely on SaaS solutions like Stripe for payment processing, Striim’s integration makes it easier to move, analyze, and leverage payment data in real time. This connector helps streamline data workflows, allowing customers to consolidate their payment data and gain valuable insights faster than ever before.
What Does the Stripe Reader Do?
The Stripe Reader is designed to help users move payment data from the Stripe service provider into any target supported by Striim. Stripe is a popular payment solution for online businesses, particularly those with subscription-based models. With this connector, Striim users can now seamlessly extract data from Stripe and send it to destinations such as Google BigQuery, enabling advanced analytics and data consolidation.
How Do You Use It?
Using the Stripe Reader with Striim is simple and straightforward. To get started, create a Striim application and use the setup wizard for a quick and seamless configuration. The wizard walks you through adding Stripe as a source and connecting your Stripe instance securely via OAuth authentication. Once connected, you can easily select the Stripe objects (tables) you want to work with and define your destination target, such as BigQuery.
For advanced users, Striim’s Flow Designer offers deeper customization options, allowing you to tailor data flows to your specific needs. This layered approach ensures both new and experienced users can maximize the value of Striim, making it a versatile solution for integrating Stripe data. The following section dives further into how Striim’s features amplify efficiency and control for complex data workflows.
How Does Striim Add Value?
Striim’s integration of the Stripe Reader adds significant value by allowing businesses to consolidate their data workloads across multiple sources. With Striim, you can combine on-premises databases (via CDC) with SaaS payment data from Stripe, enabling real-time analytics across all your business data. This level of integration and real-time capability would be challenging to achieve with other tools, making Striim a powerful solution for modern data-driven enterprises.
One of the standout features is the “mode=Automated” option. With this setting, the connector initially reads all the data from selected objects and then switches to incremental loading, ensuring ongoing updates are seamlessly captured. This flexibility makes it easy to keep your data pipeline running efficiently.
Additionally, Striim’s new support for the Stripe Delete Event handler allows users to track deleted data from Stripe objects without needing to perform a full resync, unlike some competitor products. This not only saves time but also reduces operational costs, making it a more efficient and cost-effective solution.
