All the pathing tools I have seen out there are end to end systems meaning that they collect the data, store it, and analyze it all in their own package. While nice, these are expensive, and we do not need to do duplicate data collection.
Does anyone know of a pathing tool that can read a pre-existing database table? I don't need it to be the fancy at all, I just need to get basic paths that lead to certain events.
I am only looking for a tool because I don't believe that you can write SQL to do path analysis because of the numerous possibilities that exist. If there is a way to do this with SQL or code, I'd appreciate getting pointed in that direction too.
What is your operating system, database format? How much would be unexpensive? Please send an example log data with colum names/description.

There is other stuff on the table, but this is all that is really important for pathing. Plus I am going to be building a lot of custom tables that I will want to do pathing for where I will restrict down the dataset. So ideally any tool could just be pointed at a table, told what columns to pay attention to, and then go to work.
In terms of cost, I would expect to pay between $200-$2000 for it depending on features. That's probably not enough to get someone to go out and build this for me, but it should it be built that is what I think it is worth depending on features.
