Data Scraping Pipeline
Automated data collection with scheduling
The challenge
A market research client needed daily price and availability data from multiple sources without manual exports or brittle scripts on individual laptops.
Our solution
BDBOTS engineered a Scrapy-based pipeline with Celery scheduling, Redis task queues, deduplication, and structured JSON output to the client's dashboard API.
Key features
- Scheduled crawls with retry and rate limiting
- Change detection alerts for price drops
- Proxy rotation and respectful crawl policies
- Monitoring dashboard with failure notifications
Results
Data freshness improved from weekly batches to daily updates with 99.5% job success rate over six months of production operation.
