Oracle Retail Bulk Data Integrations
The file transfer style of integration is the most common integration
pattern used with Oracle Retail products. The majority of them still
take the form of periodic programmatic extractions (e.g. MOM Batch)
using a variety of tools or programs such as shell scripts, Pro*C, and
RETL scripts.
The Oracle Retail strategic direction has been, and continues to be,
moving bulk data using the Oracle Data Integrator tool, an ETL tool
that performs the extraction, transform and load between Oracle Retail
Applications, and now to external Oracle applications.
This release of RRA 14.0 is the beginning of including these forms of
integration.

Bulk Data Integration
(File-based, ETL-based)
Oracle Retail, like most vendors, have relied on file extraction of
large amounts of data (bulk), moving that data between it's
applications using file-based methods or ETL-tool based methods, and
then consuming the data for processing.
