ETL (Extract, Transform, Load)

 

Definition: ETL is the process of pulling data from one application, formatting them as needed, and putting them into the target application.

What This Means: Data are kept in different ways inside various software applications. When we must move the data from one to another, we have to reformat and at times, change codes to match what the target application wants. ETL is how this is done.
