The setup of Talend Open Studio is simple. The process took approximately two hours and it was my first experience.

I rate the initial setup of Talend Open Studio a ten out of ten.

We currently use the free version, where we don't get the built-in scheduler. We had to deploy the job on the server as a file and, using the CRON jobs, schedule the batch or shell file. We can deploy the solution and the ETL jobs in ten or 15 minutes.

Initial setup requires a systems engineer, who has knowledge in Linux/ Windows OS, depending on the server type, to work with Talend support. It takes about 2-3 weeks for the basic setup. For additional plugins/ components, guidance from Talend support team is required.

After the initial setup, most of the ETL data pipelines take about a week at the minimum to build. Typically, we reap the benefits after a month or two from a particular data stream. Of course, it is based on the different use cases and depends on the number of data pipelines involved in solving that particular use case, however, smaller scoped items can be delivered in one to three months' time. 

After development and testing, the time required for the deployment varies, depending on the process we adopt and depending on the version control tools that we have as well. Certain tools will easily integrate into the Talend environment. In those cases, I mean, it would be a medium-complexity deployment. We can't say it's very simple, we can't say it's too complex either. There is a medium level of difficulty involved in deployment.

The time it takes depends on the processes a particular organization follows in terms of change management and deployment. Some will require at least one week of review with the change management board. In certain organizations, the approval processes may take up to three weeks to get something deployed. If the process is a little simpler, if the developer has a fair level of control, it could be just one week.

I did not take care of the product's installation phase since my company had an infrastructure team consisting of five engineers who did the installation for us.

The solution is deployed on an on-premises model.

The initial setup was pretty straightforward. I didn't have many problems installing it. It seemed very straightforward to me. 

Deployment can take a few hours, depending on your environment, because it requires some things that you may need to install if you're missing them. I think it took me probably under an hour to do it.

Obviously, being on AWS, we're using Linux AMI machines or vertical machines, using two machines. The setup was very easy. The only difficult part was to set up to the current time zone, however, this is nothing to do with Talend. We were having issues when Talend jobs were reporting the wrong date when they arrived because the set up was ETC rather than the local time zone.

Setting up Talend and setting up the administration console at the Tac server was very, very easy for somebody with a Linux System Administration skillset.

Open Studio's initial setup is pretty easy. When installing the solution, you get installation on the cloud console, and you get the installation with Java integrated. The easy configuration allows a quick start.

However, you need some lessons. I give lessons to customer companies. The course has four lessons per year. It's quite simple to learn how to use Talend.

The initial setup was quite straightforward. The deployment took between two and three days. 

We deployed it in our Unix boxes using a third-party tool called Jenkins.

The whole deployment model is automated and it happens every three weeks. There are just two people needed for maintenance.

The initial setup of the product was very easy.

The solution is deployed on an on-premises model.

Based on the log file and how the transformation and aggregation work, within five three to five minutes, the transformation happens.

The initial setup out of the box is straightforward. However, it becomes more complex as you start to distribute the components and get forced down a path of connecting to one type of database for all the components. In my case, I had to deploy Talend using RedHat Ansible and use only a PostgreSQL database.

I needed to first install the software, search for all references to H2 or PostgreSQL, change the configuration files, and then do it all over again for the distributed installs; then translate this into Ansible scripts. So although it's not directly Talend that made this complex, the installation by Talend gives the option to install to PostgreSQL but doesn't use PostgreSQL for all database repositories.

It's quite simple to set up. It's all about the installation. Just you need to click on the main file, and then it's just next, next, next. That's it. The one thing that you need to make sure of is that you have a JVM of version 11. It's just a standard installation. However, after that, the main thing that you need to make sure of is that you have a Java virtual machine, version 11. Anything below that will not work.

Initial setup was not very easy because when I started I didn't have any background on the data integration. But there is a class to start. When I started with Talend Open Studio, it was an average, good experience. Not very easy, nor very complicated.

I wasn't part of the initial setup. I'm not sure if the implementation was complex or straightforward.

The deployment part of the implementation was easy if I recall correctly. We had no problems there at all.

MS
CEO at Solutia, s.r.o.

The initial setup ranges from simple to complex. 

For the average customer, we are able to deliver solutions between two and six months. Sometimes, this is only part of the solution that we integrate for our clients. Something other than data integration may be covered by another product. One of the products that integrate well with Talend is Vertica. Together, it makes for a small setup.

Normally, one or two people are required for the deployment of this solution. It is a small team, and it covers more than just Talend.

Maintaining this solution should be the job or four or five people because you're sharing these resources. These people sometimes represent different levels of support and have varying levels of experience.

The initial setup was straightforward. It was not complex at all.

Deployment times vary according to the size of the client or their needs. If it's for a big client and big project, it could be six months of implementation time. Smaller jobs may only take one month of implementation. It all depends.

It's a very easy integration. Not so complicated. You must use the application itself. Open Studio is free and is one small part of this portfolio which Talend offers in this portfolio.

It took two weeks to connect it but all of the preparations and everything took three months.

I had a few problems during the initial setup. I had to configure some environment variables within my machine in order to be able to start working with Talend. I think that it had to do with confusion between Talend and the Java version that I had installed.

The deployment is almost nothing. You just click on the icon and it will launch.

Here in Asia, the on-premises deployment is preferred.
