Tool vs Python Script for Transforming Data in Mongo












0












$begingroup$


We have a bunch of Mongo collections (data collected from APIs, web scraping, etc) that we need to transform to a cleaner data structure (standardized schema) on a monthly basis. Are there any good tools to help us manage this process, or would you recommend writing a Python script instead?

    I'd look into mongo's Spark connector; Spark simplifies ETL.

Many ETL tools support MongoDB and are commonly used for normalizing and standardizing data. For example:
