Today I saw how easy it can be to make a mashup from ETL and DataQuality tools. More and more ETL vendors see the need to not only extract, transform and load data, but at the same time also enhance the data by hand with data quality tools. Most of them stick to so-called tick mark data quality – main stream easy to get enhancements. These results are mostly experienced as disappointing or at max average. Building ETL solutions is another ball-game than building data quality solutions. You need to mash these worlds together.
Together with Pentaho we as Human Inference are creating a mashup with their Kettle ETL tool and our HIquality Data Quality solutions. The nice thing is that the data quality solutions can be used both in the cloud as well as on-premise.
It’s almost finished now and as a teaser I just want to show you a hot screenshot of it. Soon available as add-on from our easyDQ website, followed by an inclusion in the coming Pentaho release. If you need it right away, please contact us directly.
