There are more than 75 tools on the market that purport to have some ETL function
Whether you are implementing a new data warehousing strategy or improving an existing one, you need EvalLite's independent and in-depth comparative analysis of the leading warehouse population tools.
Warehouse population is the most complex, expensive, risky and unfamiliar part of the data warehousing process. It also accounts for most of the management and maintenance cost of a typical data warehouse – up to 80% of its lifetime cost.
The population process requires data to be extracted from source information systems, then transformed and integrated before being loaded into a data warehouse or datamart. Data warehouse population tools can automate this process, speeding initial development and reducing your costs.
The first generation of tools was expensive and flawed. Vendors have learnt from their mistakes, and users have a clearer idea of what they need. Now the variety of population tools on the market mirrors the complex tasks they perform . . . and so do their price tags!
No more confusion
These products have been called extraction tools; transformation tools; "backend" tools; warehouse population tools; warehouse management tools; ETT tools; EMT tools; DTMS tools, DTE(A)MM tools... EvalLite™ cuts through the confusion and tells you what they really do and which one you should choose for your data warehouse
