Usage and Dependencies

Industry Usage: This category contains a variety of special tools used for loading of legacy data into new database environments. These tools are collectively referred to as Extract, Transform and Load (ETL) tools.

SC Usage: Standardization of relational data on SQL Server has eliminated the need for such tools for relational database ETL tools.

SC Impacts: The advent of SharePoint XML-based web storage for unstructured data (in the Electronic Information Management system) may require the use of special tools in the future, such as HiSoftware Metadata server.
