Abstract
The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for managing data ingestion. Aspects of the invention include a pluggable architecture channel service (e.g., a push/pull channel service) to ingest raw data. Aspects of the invention also include a pluggable architecture formatter to convert ingested raw data into a common format, such as, for example, key value pairs. Aspects of the invention also include an EAV storage with functionality allowing consumers to define multiple entities on (and spanning) ingested data sets. Accordingly, data can be ingested without data loss, without having to define extraction logic, and without having to define a storage schema.
