Sparkflows - A Compelling Alternative to Alteryx


Sparkflows is a compelling alternative to Alteryx. Sparkflows provides self-serve data preparation, data analytics, machine learning, and generative AI. It offers powerful analytical apps and visualizations. Sparkflows includes an ML model repository, model versioning, model comparison, and serving. It is available on all cloud platforms and on-premises. Sparkflows integrates natively with cloud services, is highly secure, and scales to petabytes of data seamlessly.

Sparkflows Features

Sparkflows comes with a number of studios and designers. It provides 500+ nodes or tools for drag-and-drop functionality. It has a number of connectors to various data sources and an extensive list of data preparation nodes. Users can also write code in SQL, Scala, and Python within the workflows.

Various Studios & Designers
Workflow Designer

Sparkflows provides extensive ML model training and MLOps capabilities. It offers ML model building capabilities with AutoML and 90+ ML algorithms for clustering, regression, classification, and forecasting, all available through a drag-and-drop designer. Users can view the details of all the models built, understand model explainability, and compare ML models. Additionally, they can import external models. Sparkflows seamlessly integrates with MLflow, Kubeflow, AWS SageMaker, and GCP Vertex AI. Models are deployed with one click, their performance is tracked, and notifications can be sent to trigger retraining.


Sparkflows provides extensive Generative AI capabilities. It has an end to end Generative AI platform, integrates with OpenAI, Gemini, Bedrock, Llama etc. The Analytical Apps designer enables building powerful Generative AI apps seamlessly with drag and drop.


Generative AI Modules

Sparkflows has extensive support for LLM models. Users can use LLM models in workflows, fine-tune them, and seamlessly use them for building apps.


Sparkflows integrates natively with all the cloud providers. It pushes down compute to various clusters and everything runs distributed. It thus scales seamlessly to thousands of concurrent jobs and petabytes of data. Because of pushdown, the data is never moved out and the solution is extremely secure. It supports connections to multiple clusters across different clouds. 



Supports various cloud and compute environments

Sparkflows provides an extremely powerful analytical app-building platform for self-service. Users can build powerful interfaces with drag-and-drop functionality and can also add JavaScript code. The analytical apps support both AI and Generative AI applications and support both workflows and notebooks as the backend along with the Generative AI endpoints.


Editing an Analytical Application

Ad-Spend Analytical App in Action

Sparkflows provides powerful visualization capabilities. It supports 20+ types of charts. It provides drag-and-drop capabilities to publish charts on dashboards.


Sparkflows as a modern analytical platform is web-based end-to-end. Users access it securely via their browser and do not have to install anything on their laptop. Sparkflows provides extensive capabilities for teams to collaborate. Teams can work together securely on projects. Projects can be shared with various groups with defined permissions.

Various Personas

Collaboration between users and groups

Sparkflows has deep integration with JupyterHub. It provides secure access to JupyterHub and users can collaborate in groups. Sparkflows has deep integration with GitHub. Everything is versioned in Git, making CI/CD seamless with the ability to effortlessly export and import assets from one environment to another. Sparkflows provides secure REST APIs for all of its features, making it very easy to integrate with any system.


Sparkflows is extremely extensible. Users can seamlessly add new nodes to it. These nodes would have all the functionality and features of the nodes that come with Sparkflows. It includes powerful node configurations, schema propagation, and interactive execution.


Sparkflows comes with over 80 AI and Generative AI apps for Retail, CPG, Telecom, Healthcare, Marketing, and Sales. Users can get started on Day 0 with the apps, configure them to their data, and quickly begin gaining insights.

Sparkflows Solutions

Sparkflows thus provides a compelling alternative to Alteryx. To top it all, Sparkflows is competitively priced and offers easy ways to scale with hundreds to thousands of users. It also has seamless methods to migrate Alteryx workflows to Sparkflows with one click.



Effortlessly migrate legacy workflows from Alteryx to Sparkflows using automated workflows.
