What is Apache Hop?

Apache Hop is the next-generation data integration platform — evolved from Pentaho Data Integration (PDI) and reimagined for modern data infrastructure.

Hop enables visual development of data pipelines with a GUI, orchestrates workflows with scheduling and coordination, and supports deployment through Docker, Kubernetes, or on-premises installation. As an Apache project, Hop is open-source, transparent, and community-driven.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Seapa and Apache Hop.

What is Apache Hop?
Apache Hop is an open-source data integration and orchestration platform. It's the modern successor to Pentaho Data Integration (PDI), with redesigned architecture, visual pipeline development, workflow orchestration, and container-native deployment. Hop is an Apache project, meaning it's transparently developed and freely available.
How does Seapa differ from Apache Hop?
Seapa is built on Apache Hop but adds enterprise features for production deployment: security, observability, data governance, hardened integrations for Southeast Asian systems, regional support in local time zones, training, and managed operations. Seapa delivers Hop as an enterprise-ready platform.
Can I migrate from Pentaho PDI?
Yes. Seapa offers migration services from Pentaho Data Integration to Apache Hop. We convert jobs and transformations, validate functionality, and manage the cutover with minimal downtime. Hop is the natural evolution of PDI, so the transition is straightforward.
What integrations does Seapa support?
Seapa supports ERP systems (SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, local ERPs), databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, Oracle, SQL Server), cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP), APIs, e-commerce platforms (Tokopedia, Shopee, Bukalapak, Shopify), analytics tools (Metabase, Superset, Grafana), and files. Custom connectors are available for unique systems.
How is Seapa deployed?
Seapa can be deployed on-premises, in private cloud, public cloud (AWS, Azure, GCP), via Docker containers, Kubernetes, or fully managed by Seapa. Deployment patterns match your infrastructure preferences and operational requirements.
What support options are available?
Seapa offers Standard (documentation, community forums), Professional (priority email support, quarterly reviews), Enterprise (24/7 incident support, dedicated account manager, custom SLAs), and Managed (Seapa operates your pipelines) support tiers. Regional coverage includes Southeast Asian time zones with English and Bahasa Indonesia.
How does pricing work?
Seapa pricing is based on deployment scale, integration requirements, and support level. Starter projects are priced on a project basis, while Professional and Enterprise plans are annual subscriptions. Contact us for a custom quote based on your requirements.
Can I try Seapa before purchasing?
Yes. Schedule a demo to discuss your requirements, and we can arrange a proof-of-concept pilot implementation. This allows you to evaluate Seapa with your actual data sources and use cases before committing to a production deployment.
