A Tarsal connector reaches out to your source, receives data, normalizes it, lets you optionally transform it, and then routes it to your end destination.
You can manage Tarsal connectors directly from your browser. You can configure
how frequently the data is synced, what data is replicated, and set up alerts if
logs are dropped.Tarsal normalizes and cleans the data. The purpose of this normalization and
cleaning is to format the data in the optimal way for your analysis.
