zorgpadtools

zorgpadtools is a modular, open-source software toolkit designed to help researchers, developers, and IT teams build, automate, and deploy data processing pipelines and workflows. The project provides a core library, a command-line interface, and a collection of plugins or adapters that connect to databases, file formats, cloud services, and messaging systems. Its design emphasizes extensibility and interoperability across languages, with a pluggable architecture and interfaces for common programming languages.

Key features include data cleaning and transformation capabilities, pipeline orchestration with dependency management, scheduling and retry policies, observability through logging and metrics, and configuration-driven workflow definitions. Pipelines can be versioned and tested using a built-in testing harness, and the tool supports deployment in on-premises or cloud environments.

zorgpadtools targets users across data science, software development, and operations, and can be embedded in larger systems or used as a standalone utility. It is typically installed from public repositories or package managers and supports multiple run-time environments, including containerized deployments.

Development and licensing: The project is maintained by an open-source community with public repositories, contribution guidelines, and a permissive license. Documentation and examples accompany releases to facilitate adoption.
