#2Use the best in class open source solution for managing and integrating data without the hassle of maintaining a secured, scalable cluster. Using DataJet you can build data flows that are as simple or complex and you like with no code.
Join millions of data engineers and developers in using the Apache NiFi based platform to build anything from database replication to ETL to IoT data ingestion.

#3That's cool! I looked at NiFi for a past company and it seemed pretty put together. IIRC, the UI felt a bit dated like Java Swing, but the capabilities were awesome.
That said, two worries:
* marketing this is going to be a bigger lift. Folks don't build data flows for fun, they use them to solve business problems. What business problems will this solve?
* "visual" programming claims always make me suspicious, because at some point you usually have to dive below the abstraction.
Anyway, best of luck!

#4NiFi is underrepresented online although it's very capable. Currently extending a thousands of steps dataflow and it's a breeze.

#5For anyone who has used DataJet or knows about it - why would I choose it over a tool like Matillion?

Yes, via the NiFi Registry

I don't know about DataJet or Matillion but I do know about NiFi.
One reason would be that it's Open Source, easily extendable and you can host it yourself if needed.
(I'm not saying that this is a good reason for everyone but for some)

Yep. I was about to recommend this to our data team until I realized there was no info on pricing.
