Introduction

Lingk provides recipes to make data integration more agile and simplify your data processes. Lingk scales to your largest datasets, handles your scheduled and event-based processes, and can integrate with existing tools and platforms using webhooks.

The Lingk Platform

Recipes are the heart of the Lingk Platform. Each recipes starts with connectors (to APIs, files, and cloud apps) and SQL statements. These YAML-based recipes are REST API events or time-based schedules.

All recipes are executed by the Lingk Spark Integration Recipe Engine (SIRE). SIRE is an Apache Spark application designed that runs on Amazon EMR and other Spark installations. The Lingk SaaS platform provides you immediate access to the power of Apache Spark through recipes.

Reusable recipes can be shared in public or private recipe libraries to make it easier for anyone to build integrations in your enterprise or on your platform.

Lingk REST APIs can be embedded in recipes, in Salesforce CRM, or your tool to trigger powerful data integration and processing on-demand. Additionally, you can leverage event subscriptions to hook into event listeners from your application, Zapier or other workflow integration tools.

Lingk's API Plugin for Apache Nifi provides an out of the box API set of templates and custom NARs designed to make it easy to build APIs from databases, files and other legacy systems.
