Priced on what you need.
Not on how much data you move.
Building custom security packaging, patch management, and monitoring internally costs ~0.5 to 1 FTE (€50k–€100k+/year in engineering overhead). Putki delivers a fully maintained, audited distribution on day one for a fraction of that cost.

Building in-house vs. Putki
Why engineering leaders choose a managed distribution over maintaining raw open-source pipelines internally.
| Dimension | In-House/DIY Open-Source | Putki |
|---|---|---|
| Engineering Cost | 0.5 to 1 FTE (~€50k–€100k/yr) spent on custom image hardening, CI/CD, and dashboard maintenance. | Turnkey setup. Enterprise security, monitoring, and lineage on day one for a predictable flat fee. |
| Infosec & Compliance | Manual patch tracking, ad-hoc vulnerability responses, and custom SBOM scripting. | Zero-lag response. Continuous base-image tracking, automated patch releases, and SBOM per release. |
| Production Risk | Silent schema changes break downstream reporting; emergency on-call hotfixes. | Design-time impact analysis. Know which pipelines break before running database migrations. |
| Knowledge Dependency | Pipeline architecture locked in 1–2 senior engineers' heads ("tribal knowledge"). | Standardized & Backed. Autodoc metadata, automated lineage, and direct PMC co-founder SLA support. |
Hassle-free support, guaranteed. All Putki plans include commercial backing from know.bi — the team that contributes to Apache Hop core.
Common questions
Are there limits on pipelines or data volume?
No. Putki is priced on the level of observability, governance, and support your team needs — not on how many pipelines you run or how much data you move.
Can I start on Basic and upgrade later?
Yes. All tiers are annual subscriptions and you can upgrade at any point. When you upgrade, the new tier takes effect at the start of the next billing cycle.
What does Enterprise pricing depend on?
Enterprise engagements start from €50,000/year and are scoped based on your environment — number of environments, compliance requirements, SLA targets, and whether you need onboarding workshops or architecture advisory. We quote after a conversation, not before.
What's included in commercial support?
All plans include access to the Putki helpdesk and knowledge base. Basic covers business hours CET with a 2 business day response SLA. Professional adds more named contacts, extended CEST hours, and a 2 business hour response SLA. Enterprise includes a custom SLA — from 2 hours for P1 — and a dedicated technical advisor.
Do I need Putki to run Apache Hop?
No. Apache Hop is open source and free to use. Putki layers security hardening, operational tooling, maintained connectors, and commercial support on top. You decide how much of that you need.
Need budget sign-off from your CTO or VP of Engineering?
Copy and forward this quick pitch to summarize the ROI and maintenance savings for executive leadership:
"Hey [Name], I'm evaluating Putki (the enterprise distribution for Apache Hop) for our data pipelines. Offloading image security hardening, patch management, and schema change impact analysis saves us an estimated ~300+ hours of custom infrastructure work per year (~€40k+ in engineering overhead). It gives us commercial SLA backing directly from Hop PMC co-founders. Check out the executive overview here: putki.io/pricing"

Common questions
What is the pre-upgrade audit for PDI migrations?
The pre-upgrade audit (€2,500) is a separate assessment that catalogues your existing PDI pipelines, identifies complexity, and produces a realistic migration scope before any conversion work begins. It can be purchased standalone or as part of a coaching package.
What's a topic session?
A topic session is a focused, structured working session (typically half a day) with a Putki engineer. You choose the topic — getting started with Apache Hop, pipeline architecture review, data warehouse design, CI/CD setup, or a specific problem in your environment.
Are sessions remote or on-site?
Sessions are remote by default. On-site delivery can be arranged for Standard and Premium engagements — travel costs are billed separately.
Can coaching be combined with a Putki subscription?
Yes, and many clients do. A coaching engagement is often the fastest way to get a new team productive on Putki — the subscription then provides ongoing support and tooling.
