dbt Labs is redefining how data teams work with SQL. Instead of waiting on complex ETL processes, dbt lets data analysts and data engineers build production-ready transformations directly in the warehouse, using code, version control, and CI/CD. This community-driven approach puts power back in the hands of practitioners while maintaining governance and scalability for enterprise use.
With a rapidly growing open-source community and an enterprise-grade cloud platform, dbt is at the heart of the modern data stack. It’s the go-to solution for teams who want faster analytics, higher quality data, and the confidence that comes from transparent, testable transformations.

Plauti builds native data-quality applications that run entirely within your CRM environment. No data is sent to external servers or third-party processing services, and there’s no parallel infrastructure to maintain. Your data stays where it belongs: under your control, behind your security perimeter, governed by your own access model.
For Salesforce, Plauti addresses the full lifecycle of data quality:
> Prevention at entry: Real-time duplicate detection alerts users as they type, blocking bad data before it’s created.
> Detection from external sources: Identify duplicates coming from integrations, imports, and APIs, so data quality doesn’t degrade over time.
> Batch remediation at scale: Run powerful batch jobs to find, review, and merge existing duplicates, with full audit trails for compliance and governance.
> Contact data verification: Validate email addresses and phone numbers before they’re saved to reduce bounces and failed outreach.
All processing runs natively on Salesforce infrastructure. Plauti respects your existing profiles, roles, and permission sets, so there’s no separate login, no data synchronization layer, and no new security surface to harden.
For Microsoft Dynamics 365, Plauti provides similar control over duplicates with real-time alerts, API-driven detection, batch processing, and cross-entity matching. It’s designed for CRM admins and data stewards who need direct, immediate control over data quality without waiting on developers, external consultants, or long IT ticket queues.

Kylo
Kylo serves as an open-source platform designed for effective management of enterprise-level data lakes, facilitating self-service data ingestion and preparation while also incorporating robust metadata management, governance, security, and best practices derived from Think Big's extensive experience with over 150 big data implementation projects. It allows users to perform self-service data ingestion complemented by features for data cleansing, validation, and automatic profiling. Users can manipulate data effortlessly using visual SQL and an interactive transformation interface that is easy to navigate. The platform enables users to search and explore both data and metadata, examine data lineage, and access profiling statistics. Additionally, it provides tools to monitor the health of data feeds and services within the data lake, allowing users to track service level agreements (SLAs) and address performance issues effectively. Users can also create batch or streaming pipeline templates using Apache NiFi and register them with Kylo, thereby empowering self-service capabilities. Despite organizations investing substantial engineering resources to transfer data into Hadoop, they often face challenges in maintaining governance and ensuring data quality, but Kylo significantly eases the data ingestion process by allowing data owners to take control through its intuitive guided user interface. This innovative approach not only enhances operational efficiency but also fosters a culture of data ownership within organizations.
