Writer Targets and Output Destinations

Choose the right output target for ETL results depending on whether the goal is a table, map-ready output, or database-backed destination.

Before you start
  • Flow with at least one prepared output branch

Writers determine where the transformed result goes once a flow is ready to produce something operational.

Typical output targets

  • table-oriented outputs
  • map-ready outputs
  • PostGIS and other supported destinations

How to choose the target

Choose the writer based on the next job:

  • write to a managed table when the result should stay operational inside the platform
  • write to a map-oriented target when the result is meant to become immediately useful in spatial work
  • write to a database destination when the flow is part of a broader integration path
