mabel is a Data Engineering platform designed to run in serverless environments.
mabel just runs when you need it, scaling to zero, making it efficient and ideal for deployments to platforms like Kubernetes, GCP Cloud Run, AWS Fargate and Knative.
Focus on What Matters
We've built mabel to enable Data Analysts to write complex data engineering tasks quickly and easily, so they could get on with doing what they do best.
from mabel import Reader
data = Reader(dataset="test_data")
print(data.count())
Key Features
- On-the-fly compression
- Low-memory requirements, even with terabytes of data
- Indexing and partitioning of data for fast reads
- Cursors for tracking reading position between processes
- Partial SQL DQL (Data Query Language) support
- Schema and data_expectations validation
Installation
From PyPI (recommended)
pip install --upgrade mabel
From GitHub
