States: Powering Flexible Data Workflows in beVault

In the ever-evolving landscape of data management, organizations need robust tools to handle complex data workflows efficiently. Enter States, the powerful internal orchestrator at the heart of beVault. This innovative component revolutionizes how businesses manage their data pipelines, from initial extraction to final delivery into business intelligence (BI) tools.

Unleashing the Power of Workflow Orchestration

States leverages the Amazon State Language (ASL), a JSON-based language designed for creating intricate workflows called state machines. This foundation allows States to manage data processes of any complexity with ease and precision. Whether you’re dealing with simple linear workflows or complex branching scenarios, States provides the flexibility and control you need.


Dynamic Workflow Creation

Using ASL, States enables the construction of state machines that can handle conditional branching, parallel execution, and iterative processing. This versatility ensures that your data workflows can adapt to any business logic or data structure.

Modular Design

Complex workflows can be broken down into smaller, more manageable state machines. This modular approach not only simplifies management but also promotes reusability, saving time and resources in the long run.



Worker Integration

States seamlessly integrates with small web services called Workers. These specialized components execute specific tasks such as making HTTP calls or querying databases, allowing for precise control over each step of your data pipeline.



Extensibility

While States comes with a set of generic Workers, it also supports custom Worker creation. Using common programming languages like Python, Ruby, Java, or .NET, you can develop Workers tailored to your unique data processing needs.
