DUBLIN, Ireland --(Business Wire)-- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c42545) has announced the addition of Extract, Transform & Load (ETL) report to their offering.

Technically, ETL stands for 'extract, transform and load'. Historically, this meant that you extracted data from source systems, transformed it appropriately, and then loaded into a target system. Further, this process has traditionally been associated with the loading of data into a data warehouse in a batch-based process.



The problem with this description is that none of these things are true any longer. If we take the association with data warehousing first, there are a number of other environments in which you may want to use an ETL process; such as when you are migrating from one database to another or if, after a merger, you need to synchronise different databases. There are also cases where you might want to move data from a source system directly into an application environment such as a call centre or contact management system.
