> Apache Hop, short for Hop Orchestration Platform, is a data orchestration and data engineering platform that aims to facillitate all aspects of data and metadata orchestration. Hop lets you focus on the problem you’re trying to solve without technology getting in the way. Simple tasks should be easy, complex tasks need to be possible.
> Hop allows data professionals to work visually, using metadata to describe how data should be processed. Visual design enables data developers to focus on what they want to do instead of how that task needs to be done. This focus on the task at hand lets Hop developers be more productive than they would be when writing code."
Are these really often useful?
From looking at the Apache HOP docs, it doesn't look like they have changed the UI much (if at all). I wonder if they at least made it less buggy.
