Data Pipeline Incident Recovery
Unblocking ETL/ELT flows that are stalled, slow, or failing silently, to restore continuity of your data assets
When a pipeline stops — or worse, fails silently — the damage is not only technical: reports that never arrive, dashboards that stop updating, decisions made on stale data. Data Pipeline Incident Recovery gets stalled, slow, or interrupted extract, transform, and load (ETL/ELT) flows running again and restores continuity of your data assets. As with every Recover engagement, we do not stop at a restart. We find the cause so the flow does not break again.
The service in brief
- Service
- Unblocking and restoring ETL/ELT data flows that are stalled, slow, or failed.
- When you need it
- Data pipelines are stalled or failing, putting data continuity at risk.
- R.O.C.E. phase
- Recover: the first phase of the Miriade R.O.C.E. methodology (Recover · Optimize · Control · Evolve).
- Scope
- ETL/ELT flows, data pipelines, and continuity of data assets.
- Approach
- Restoring continuity and finding the cause to prevent recurrence.
- Works on
- Existing pipelines and data platforms, regardless of who built them.
- Related service
- Platform Stabilization Sprint (same approach, applied to cloud environments and applications).
The data stops arriving (or arrives wrong)
A pipeline that stops is noticed at once. One that fails silently is not — and meanwhile, someone downstream makes decisions on partial or stale data.
How it works
First, continuity is restored. Then the cause is removed: a flow that restarts but stays fragile is not a solved problem.
Triage and scoping
We define the affected flow, the downstream impact, and the urgency. We obtain the access we need and gather evidence.
Flow diagnosis
We analyze sources, transformations, destinations, and dependencies to find where and why the flow breaks.
Unblocking and restoration
We restore continuity of extractions and loads, recovering missing data where possible.
Removal of the cause
We eliminate the cause of the blockage so the flow does not stop again.
Handover and prevention
We deliver the evidence and recommendations. Where needed, we point you toward pipeline optimization or continuous management.
The risk of silent failure
A flow that fails silently is more dangerous than one that stops.
The technologies we use
Some of the technologies and platforms we work with on this service.
From recovery to continuous management
The area spans immediate recovery (Recover) to continuous management (Control). Data Pipeline Incident Recovery is the dedicated response for data flows.

Frequently asked questions
How is it different from the Platform Stabilization Sprint?
Both follow the same Recover approach. The Sprint stabilizes cloud environments and applications, while Data Pipeline Incident Recovery is dedicated to ETL/ELT data flows.
Do you recover missing data?
Where technically possible, we recover missing data and restore continuity. In every case, we reconstruct the state of the flow and its dependencies.
Do you work on pipelines you did not build?
Yes. We work on existing pipelines and data platforms, regardless of who built them.
What happens after the flow is unblocked?
Once the cause is found and removed, we can point you toward pipeline optimization (Optimize) or a continuous managed service (SRE), where needed.
How does it start?
With triage: we define the affected flow, the downstream impact, and the urgency.
Do you need to get your data flows running again?
Tell us which flow is stalled and what depends on it. We restore continuity and remove the cause of the blockage.
Tell us which flow has stopped
Tell us which pipeline is stalled or unreliable, and what depends on it downstream. We restore continuity and remove the cause of the blockage.
We use the data you submit only to contact you about this request.
