This is an interesting topic to work on and we thought it could be useful to share some internals out there. Put on your scuba equipment, this is a deep dive into our architecture and the story of how we built our own global deployment engine.

A common data development task is to move data from a target to a source. It can be a time consuming and tedious process when you have many sources or many targets of different types. This task can be made more complex when you add an automation component. These tasks can be made much quicker and easier to manage when using the right tool, for example Linx.

"I always loved web development... working with eSports teams, and making websites," Nathan recalls, thinking back to a childhood filled with online adventures in a tech-savvy family.
