The Growing Practice of ETL Outside of Data Warehousing

Date: March 28, 2007
Time: 9:00 a.m. PT/12:00 noon ET
Presenter: Philip Russom, Senior Manager of Research and Services, TDWI

TDWI Research shows that data integration usage—especially in the form of ETL—is growing overall, but growing fastest outside of data warehousing. Non-warehouse ETL is now approximately 25% of all ETL usage, up from less than 20% in 2004. This is because ETL tools and techniques are increasingly applied to non-data-warehouse projects within and beyond the enterprise, like database and application consolidations, migrations, upgrades, synchronizations, and B2B data exchange. The number of these technical projects is driven up by business events like mergers, acquisitions, reorganizations, partner realignments, and new regulatory requirements.

From this Webinar, attendees will learn:

  • Why ETL usage is growing outside of data warehousing
  • What kind of technology requirements this involves, including new ones like SOA and software as a service (SaaS)
  • How requirements for tools, techniques, and teams for ETL vary between warehousing and non-warehousing projects
  • Which approaches help accommodate non-warehouse ETL without raiding resources of the data warehouse
