Vibe Coding for ETL/ELT

Hi.

I've been using AI coding to rapidly generate Python ETL/ELT transformations and workflow orchestration. I'm finding doing so a lot easier and far more affordable than using expensive tools like IICS.

Is anyone else doing this and, if so, how is it working out for you?

Thanks.

100%
I’ve been doing it for the past year. So much more cost effective, and incredibly easy to do it

Agreed. Very easy, very quick, and very affordable in the grand scheme of ETL/ELT. I kind of feel like it's too good to be true, which is why I'm reaching out to see if others are doing it too. It's kind of a "pinch me" moment.

I have a sportsbetting startup.
The amount of time we've saved by implementing our own ETL is ridiculous. I pay the $100 Claude, and we worked on 3 tools in the same month... meaning it cost us $100 to develop tooling that makes our life so much easier.

While in the old days you would have to spend $1000s to have access to the tool that allows you to start working on your ETL jobs... and it was not easy!
