Scrape Product Data from Fashion Sites

Success Story -

Challenge

The customer required a product scraper to fetch the data from over a hundred fashion websites, such as GAP, Macy's, and Nordstrom. Product data, as well as all conceivable variations of a specific product, such as assorted colors, were essential data fields. The customer gave us a range of source websites to crawl as well as the data points needed. The extraction interval was set at once a day.

Crawlers were put up to fetch the necessary data fields from the source sites by our team. Because the source websites were in varied formats and designs, this use case falls under our site scan service. The extracted data had to be saved in CSV format and transferred to the client's S3 servers. The initial installation took only a few days, and the crawlers began delivering data right away.

During the initial crawl, almost 200 thousand records were sent to the client.

Solution

Client Requirements: The client supplied their data needs, which included a list of source websites, product pieces of information, and frequency of data extraction.

Custom Product Scraper Set Up: Crawlers were put up to scrape product information such as the product name, description, characteristics, price, and discounts for each color and size variant.

Data Delivery: The information was extracted through specially trained web crawlers and given to the customer in the frequency and file format that they requested directly to their S3 locations.

The data was massive, with over 1 million records collected and given in a clean and organized format every day.
