GitLab is an open-source code repository and collaborative software development platform for large-scale DevOps and DevSecOps projects. Databricks, in turn, is a serverless big data solution that provides robust storage and large-scale data analytics capabilities.

With Erathos, you can connect GitLab data to Databricks in minutes. Our platform handles the entire data movement process into your analytics environment and lets you join that data with other sources in your data warehouse. That way, your time goes toward what really drives value — extracting actionable insights and making more data-driven decisions.

### What GitLab data does Erathos sync with Databricks?

The integration automatically syncs GitLab's key objects:

- **Core entities** — objects and records synced automatically
- **Custom fields** — custom properties included in the sync
- **Historical data** — full initial load and incremental updates

### Why sync GitLab with Databricks?

Centralizing GitLab data in Databricks eliminates manual exports and spreadsheet work — and gives your team the ability to combine it with other sources for analyses that were previously out of reach. An automatically updated data warehouse is the foundation for faster, more reliable decisions.

### How it works

Erathos connects to GitLab through the official API and syncs your data incrementally — only new or updated records are processed on each run, keeping pipelines fast and Databricks costs predictable. You choose the sync frequency (from every 5 minutes to daily), which objects to sync, and the target dataset. Every run is tracked with full observability: runtime, rows processed, contextual errors, and instant alerts via Slack or email if something goes wrong.

## Data in your data warehouse in minutes

### Ready-to-use GitLab connector

Connect GitLab to Databricks in minutes with our native connector. Data is synced automatically—no code required, with full observability for every run.

### Total control over your GitLab pipelines

Configure frequency, sync type, and partitioning by table. Data arrives in Databricks ready for ML, analytics, and ad hoc queries—with predictable cost.

### End-to-end observability

Stop finding out about GitLab failures only after the business team complains. Every run is logged with runtime, rows processed, and error context. Automatic alerts via Slack, Discord, or email the moment anything deviates from expected behavior — so your data stays fresh and ready for analysis.

## Centralizing GitLab data in Databricks has never been easier.

Erathos is a data ingestion platform built for reliability, visibility, and control. With the GitLab connector, you automatically move operational and business data into Databricks—with full observability into every run and zero maintenance.

## FAQ

### What is Erathos and how can it help my company?

Erathos is a data ingestion platform built for reliability, transparency, and control. We help data teams connect tools like GitLab to their data warehouse—with full observability into every pipeline run, zero maintenance, and none of the opacity of traditional market tools.

### What GitLab data does Erathos sync to Databricks?

Erathos automatically syncs the main GitLab objects and entities to Databricks. To check which specific tables and fields are available in the GitLab connector, see our documentation or contact our support team.

### How often does Erathos synchronize data from GitLab to Databricks?

You can configure synchronization frequency at the table level, from every 5 minutes up to once a day. Erathos uses incremental sync—only new or updated records are processed on each run—keeping the GitLab pipeline efficient and Databricks costs predictable.

### What happens if a GitLab sync fails?

Erathos automatically detects failures and sends alerts to your email, Slack, or Discord with full context—not just "job failed." Smart retries handle transient errors, and every execution is logged with run time, processed rows, and error context so your team can debug in minutes, not hours.
