Weaviate Weaviate
Vector Database

Every source into Weaviate, retrieval-ready.

Dataddo is the turnkey data layer for Weaviate. Connect 400+ business sources and keep your vector store continuously fed with clean, PII-safe, up-to-date records - no pipelines to build or maintain - so your RAG pipelines, semantic search, and agents always retrieve current data. Fully managed and deployment-flexible - no lock-in.

YOUR DATA FOUNDATION

Every source into Weaviate, clean and current

Connect 400+ sources and keep Weaviate continuously fed with clean, governed records and metadata - no pipelines to build, and no bad or broken data reaching your retrieval layer.

400+ managed connectors

Marketing, sales, finance, product, and ad platforms - plus databases and flat files - all maintained for you, ready to ground your AI.

Flexible batch loading

Load Weaviate by scheduled batch ETL or ELT from any of 400+ sources - blended, transformed, and delivered on the cadence your retrieval layer needs.

Scheduled loads that keep it current

Load Weaviate on the schedule you choose so it reflects your latest source data, and refresh it as sources change - no manual rebuilds.

PII-safe before it's locked in

Automatic PII detection masks or hashes sensitive fields, and the Data Quality Firewall stops bad records - so nothing you can't retract gets written into Weaviate.

Rich metadata for filtered retrieval

Land structured metadata alongside your records so you can filter and scope semantic search and hybrid queries in Weaviate.

Proactive monitoring

Data-quality checks and delivery alerts catch gaps before they reach Weaviate or the agents and apps it grounds.

WITH VS. WITHOUT

Who carries the load when things change upstream

Keep the same sources flowing into Weaviate - and see who owns it when an API, schema, or endpoint changes:

Without Dataddo With Dataddo Outcome for you
API or auth change You discover the breakage and scramble to fix it. We update the connector and restore the pipeline - often before you notice. Pipelines to Weaviate keep flowing
Schema drift Columns change and pipelines break or corrupt data silently. Detected automatically and handled by configurable rules. Only clean data lands in Weaviate
Endpoint deprecated You re-engineer the integration. We own the update - the data contract holds. Your Weaviate loads keep working
Missing connector You build and maintain a custom integration. We build it and maintain it, under a ~4-week SLA. Any source can reach Weaviate
Silent degradation You find out when a report or model run fails. Proactive monitoring catches anomalies and delays first. Issues caught before retrieval quality drops
Debugging You dig through logs across disconnected tools. Run histories, payload inspection, and end-to-end lineage in one place. Faster root-cause, less downtime
Data residency by design

Choose where Weaviate runs - cloud, sovereign, or on-prem

Vector stores often sit next to sensitive, proprietary knowledge. With Dataddo you decide where the data plane runs per workload - fully in the cloud, in a regional or sovereign cloud, or on-premises inside your own perimeter - whether Weaviate is a managed service or self-hosted. The control plane orchestrates every option the same way, through metadata only.

Data Plane location Typical data sensitivity Why this setup

Public cloud

AWS Microsoft Azure Google Cloud
Low to moderate - general business, marketing, and product data; sources that are already cloud-native. Fastest to stand up and scales elastically. Best when the data has no residency restriction and often already lives in the same public cloud.

Regional & EU sovereign clouds

EU sovereign clouds Regional providers Private cloud
Regulated / residency-bound - PII, financial, and health data governed by GDPR or local law. Keeps processing inside a specific jurisdiction to meet data-residency and sovereignty rules, while still running as managed infrastructure.

On-premises

Kubernetes Red Hat OpenShift VMware Tanzu
Highly sensitive / restricted - data that contractually or legally cannot leave the corporate perimeter. Data never leaves your network. Required for air-gapped, classified, or locked-down environments; the Control Plane still manages it via metadata only.
DATA TYPES

Every data type, transformed and ready to embed in Weaviate

Dataddo blends, cleans, and structures data from 400+ sources before it reaches Weaviate - so the records and text your embedding jobs read arrive consistent and analytics-ready.

Data type Examples Vector-store use case
Structured Database tables, CSV, SaaS and CRM records Embed catalogs, tickets, and CRM records for semantic search and recommendations
Semi-structured JSON, API responses, NoSQL and MongoDB documents Flatten and embed document-store and event data to ground RAG
Unstructured text Free-text fields: reviews, descriptions, notes, support messages Deliver the raw text your embedding job turns into vectors for retrieval

Dataddo delivers records, metadata, and text fields ready for embedding. It does not ingest raw files such as PDFs, images, or audio, and it does not generate embeddings - your embedding job does that.

FAQ

Weaviate + Dataddo, answered

What can I load into Weaviate?

Any of Dataddo's 400+ sources - marketing and ad platforms, CRMs, finance tools, databases, and flat files - plus custom sources on request. Data is blended, cleansed, and PII-masked before it lands in Weaviate.

How does Dataddo load data into Weaviate?

Dataddo writes records and metadata to Weaviate by scheduled batch load on the cadence you choose, delivering the clean, current data your embedding and retrieval jobs rely on. Dataddo does not run the embedding model itself.

What does Dataddo write into Weaviate?

Dataddo keeps the properties of the objects in your Weaviate collections current from your governed sources, matched by object id. Each object carries its data properties and a vector; Dataddo delivers the properties, not the vectors.

Does Dataddo replace Weaviate's own vectorizer modules?

No. Dataddo does not generate embeddings. Whether you vectorize with Weaviate's own vectorizer modules or bring your own vectors, Dataddo's job is to keep the underlying object properties fresh, validated and PII-safe.

How does Dataddo keep Weaviate fresh, and can it stay in my network?

With scheduled, incremental refreshes from 400+ sources plus data-quality and PII controls. For self-hosted Weaviate, Dataddo's hybrid deployment keeps the data plane in your network so property data does not leave your perimeter.

Do I have to maintain the pipelines?

No. Dataddo is fully managed: we maintain the connectors, adapt to source schema changes, and alert you if anything needs attention. Run it fully in the cloud with nothing to operate, or self-host the data plane as a lightweight agent - either way there is no pipeline code for you to maintain.

How is sensitive data handled?

Dataddo is SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified. Because you can't retract a value once it's embedded, PII can be masked or hashed before it ever reaches Weaviate, and with an on-premises data plane payload data never leaves your network. EU or US data residency is available.

How do I keep Weaviate up to date?

Scheduled loads refresh Weaviate with your latest source data on the cadence you choose, so your RAG and search results reflect current data - no manual rebuilds.

Am I locked in?

No. Data lands in your own Weaviate instance, and pipelines are destination-agnostic - you can add or switch vector stores and other destinations without rebuilding your sources.
