Advantages
Rich and intuitive GUI
DataStudio has many panels simplifying design and deployment of ETL processing.
Easy to use and easy to design
The numerous helpers, the comprehensive HTML documentation full of examples as well as high level functions and the SQL approach for transformations allow for both simplicity and effectiveness.
Performance based on EL-T architecture, parallel processing and massive bulk loading technology
|
With the EL-T architecture, data is processed before or after transfer. The transformations, always handling large scale data sets, are done closer to the data source or target allowing access to very powerful tranformations. |
Parallelization on a single click and massive data loading technologies complement the performance of the processing from one end to the other of the processing chain.
DataStudio engine optimized in native code : no waste of resources
|
DataStudio is coded in C++ so as to optimize processor load and memory usage. Thus, the power of your machine is used for true data processing and not for running countless abstraction layers. |
Business format connectors : ETEBAC, EDIFACT, NOEMIE...
|
Business formats are seen as data zones containing table type data objects accessible with SQL queries. Access to these data is thus simplified despite the possible great complexity of the underlying format. This approach allows easy and standardized integration of multi-source data in information systems. |
ERP, CRM, mainframes and non relationnal data connectors
|
Just as with business formats, access to ERP, CRM, ... is done in SQL. |
Integrated reporting module
|
DataStudio drives reporting features of "Crystal reports" runtime engine. The combination of DataStudio ETL for data extraction and processing and the reporting on this pre-processed data gives a rational and powerful platform. |
Indeed, reporting tools are specialized in graphical layout and are much more efficient when information is already extracted, filtered, cleaned, ...
Data quality management (standardization, deduplication...)
Data quality management can be done at different levels. When reading data from a source (especially when reading files), while data transfers (line by line or block by block), by executing business rules.
DataStudio data quality error behavior can be completely specified or left to default behavior.
Integrated platform : design, meta-data, version management, deployment, scheduling, monitoring, ...
All the tools needed for implementing a true professional information system are part of the DataStudio platform, from design to deployment, reuse of validated ETL processes and resources version management.
Centralized, shared and secured repository in database
|
All the settings of data ETL processes are stored in a database, which provides the needed security and allows system administrators to easily insert the DataStudio platform in their administration process. |
Comprehensive Service Oriented Architecture (SOA)
|
DataStudio SOA framework makes it easy to integrate ETL processing in a modern service oriented architecture but also to combine other external services to create a new high added value ETL processing. |
It will of course be possible to publish it as a service itself.
Availability on Windows, Linux and Unix
The same version of DataStudio can be deployed on Windows, Linux or Unix platform. All platform DataStudio versions use the same settings repository to run the ETL processing without any update.
Reusing and enhancing legacy
DataStudio can drive and integrate legacy processing developped in other technologies, other languages, enhancing it while adding the power and connectivity of ETL technology to the whole system.
