Sun Master Data Management Suite Primer

Sun Data Integrator

Sun Data Integrator is an extract, transform, and load (ETL) tool designed for high-performance ETL processing of bulk data between files and databases. It manages and orchestrates high-volume data transfer and transformation between a wide range of diverse data sources, including relational and non-relational data sources. Sun Data Integrator is designed to process very large data sets, making it the ideal tool to use to load data from multiple systems across an organization into the master index database.

Sun Data Integrator provides a wizard to guide you through the steps of creating basic and advanced ETL mappings and collaborations. It also provides options for generating a staging database and bulk loader for the legacy data that will be loaded into a master index database. These options are based on the object structure defined for the master index. The ETL Collaboration Editor allows you to easily and quickly customize the required mappings and transformations, and supports a comprehensive set of data operators. Sun Data Integrator works within the MDM Suite to dramatically shorten the length of time it takes to match and load large data sets into the master index database.
