Low-code iPaaS announces new suite of AI-enabled features

CHICAGO, Sept. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — StarfishETL, a low-code iPaaS built for scalable data connections, is delighted to announce a new suite of AI-enabled features to its platform.

The application’s user-friendly Cloud Cartographer now includes three AI-assisted features to support more intelligent field mapping, script writing, and SQL query writing.

AI-Assisted Field Mapping

AI-assisted field mappings take auto-mapping to the next level. Users can apply this feature to get a quick jump-start of field-level mapping exercises. It can evaluate the list of available Origin fields and the Destination fields for that stage and come up with a recommendation for which fields should be matched.

If the user is only interested in mapping a few fields, they can easily narrow down the list prior to processing. All mapping suggestions can be reviewed and approved individually before adding them to the stage.

This AI mapping capability adds on to StarfishETL’s pre-existing low code mapping functions, to make it even easier for non-technical users to work with the platform.

AI-Assisted Script Writing

The AI-assisted script writing feature will help users write functions for individual field mappings or global scripts to create pre/post-process procedures. All StarfishETL’s pre-existing scripting language options are supported: C#, VBScript, Javascript, and Python.

The AI model has also been trained on internal ETL scripting functions, including: performing lookups, logging, working with cross-reference lists (Xrefs), and many other features.

To use the AI-assisted scripting, the user enters a prompt for what they want the new function or field mapping to do and provides hints of which fields they expect should be referenced. The AI model does the rest – presenting the user with a complete function to review and approve for their mapping.

AI-Assisted SQL Query Writing

The AI-assisted SQL query writing function within the Origin tab to help users write more complex queries. It can build WHERE clauses, perform JOINs across multiple tables, and use built-in SQL functions to perform translations on the SQL side to streamline the mapping experience.

The user provides a plain language prompt of which data they want returned, adding hints of which tables they’ll be pulling from, and StarfishETL then feeds the schema for those tables into the AI request. The response is a full SQL SELECT statement which users can review and approve for their Origin query. These queries can be tested and modified as the user wishes.

StarfishETL applies these AI capabilities using Amazon’s AI platform, which is powered by the latest AI models available.

“Our goal has always been to simplify the integration process, and by adding AI-assisted scripting, query writing, and field mapping to our platform, we’re empowering users to work faster and with greater accuracy,” says Aron Hoekstra, Lead Developer for StarfishETL. “This new feature reduces manual effort, accelerates project timelines, and makes complex integrations more accessible for teams of all skill levels.”

StarfishETL offers connections to 400+ applications. The platform is well received by analysts and business users for its ease-of-use, scalability, and performance. These new AI features will be available starting October 1, 2024.

Employees and infrastructure are safe

LAS VEGAS, Sept. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — CleanSpark Inc. (Nasdaq: CLSK), America’s Bitcoin Miner® (the “Company”) today provided comments and updates on the impact of Hurricane Helene.

Statement from CEO Zach Bradford

In the wake of Hurricane Helene’s destructive path across the Southeastern United States, we extend our deepest condolences to the communities, families, and individuals who have suffered loss, damage, and disruption due to this catastrophic event. We recognize the immense challenges faced by those in regions where the storm has left countless without power, water, and other basic necessities. The loss of life, including first responders who bravely served during this crisis, underscores the severity of Helene’s impact. Our thoughts are with every person whose life has been altered by this hurricane.

The communities in rural Georgia, where our employees and their families reside and where we operate, have experienced this firsthand. The resilience shown by the affected communities and our employees, as they come together to support one another is a testament to the human spirit’s indomitable nature. Our teams have been working hand in hand with the local utilities to mutually support the efforts to bring power back online to regions affected. Their grit and commitment have been outstanding.

I want to extend our deepest gratitude to our incredible teams who have demonstrated remarkable resilience and dedication in the face of this challenge. Your unwavering commitment to excellence, even under trying circumstances, has not gone unnoticed. The spirit of collaboration, grit, and perseverance you’ve shown is truly commendable. Thank you for your hard work, your adaptability, and for pushing through adversity with such determination. We continue to move forward and achieve our goals because of your efforts.

Most importantly, all our team members are safe. Additionally, our geographically diverse portfolio of sites allowed us to maintain approximately 10.5 EH/s at our sites in Northwest Georgia, Mississippi, and Tennessee throughout the storm. To ensure health and safety, and to avoid any undue pressure on the electrical grid, we shut 365 MW of our Southeast Georgia sites down as the hurricane began impacting the region.

Since then, we have been in regular communication with the local utilities to safely bring up the sites in a manner that ensured the local community was supported throughout the process. Within 24 hours, we were able to bring hashrate back to over 17.5 EH/s. We have now brought approximately 200 MW back online and expect to bring the remaining 165 MW online in the coming week after the utilities and communities around us receive power. The majority of the 165 MW remaining offline is projected to be restored to communities no later than October 4, 2024. Our teams are prepared to promptly restore normal operations as soon as power becomes available.

We have also thoroughly evaluated all of our sites and are pleased to report that we have experienced no material damage to any site infrastructure. We are not aware of any material losses related to our mining servers and will continue this evaluation as we energize the remaining sites. Our hashrate is currently at approximately 22 EH/s. When our sites are fully reenergized, we expect to reach standard operations at approximately 28 EH/s.
