ETL

DataSlave is an example of an ETL Tool (Extract, Transform and Load) tool. It is designed to allow you to import data from for example a CSV File and then run a series of data quality checks on that data.

Follow the links to the right to find out more.

Formats supported as part of Extract Transform Load

Check the data for valid formats - Social Security Number, Email address, URL, ISBN number, valid telephone number, ZIP code, Postcode and many more. DataSlave offers over 100 standard functions, more than most ETL Tools on the market and at a market-leading price.

Transform

Data can be modified for example splitting a field into two, breaking up a contact name or stripping our unwanted characters. More than 35 standard functions.

De-duplicate

Data can be checked for duplicate or repeated records either within its self or compared to another set of data.

Finally the clean data can be loaded into a new database or exported into a text file.

DataSlave is a leading ETL Tool, but also provides de duplication (de dup) and data cleaning, removing duplicates, clone or repeat records. We do not use soundex as this does not work well with names drawn from non-English sources. We use the number of edits, a simple but effective approach.

First-class ETL

DataSlave is designed to allow you to import data, transform data, validate data and finally export that data. DataSlave is one of the best tools on the market for database import, database export and data migration. We are not a de duplication service, but a de-dup tool that you own and use as many times as you need. An ETL Tool with data de-duplication built in. DataSlave also offers tools for merging data.

DataSlave provides support for CSV files, Tab delimited, comma delimited, fixed format files, Microsoft Access, Excel, SQL Server, FoxPro, Act, DataFlex, MySQL, ODBC, OLE DB, Oracle, VSAM, Paradox, Postgress, dBase, ISAM. More...

The data can come from marketing lists, email lists, mailing lists, direct mail lists, address lists, contact management systems, CRM systems, Maxamiser, ACT!, Outlook. Make DataSlave a part of your marketing campaign management or list management.

You can also use the DataSlave SDK to add a ETL into your own application. A data migration facility with the minimum of development effort. Learn more. See a demonstration of Extract Transform Load (ETL) in action.
