Abstract
Considering extract-transform-load (ETL) as a complex and evolutionary process, development teams must conscientiously and rigorously create log strategies for retrieving the most value of the information that can be gathered from the events that occur through the ETL workflow. Efficient logging strategies must be structured so that metrics, logs, and alerts can, beyond their troubleshooting capabilities, provide insights about the system. This paper presents a configurable and flexible ETL component for creating logging mechanisms in ETL workflows. A pattern-oriented approach is followed as a way to abstract ETL activities and enable its mapping to physical primitives that can be interpreted by ETL commercial tools.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Data Warehousing and Mining (IJDWM) disseminates the latest international research findings in the areas of data management and analyzation. IJDWM provides a forum for state-of-the-art developments and research, as well as current innovative activities focusing on the integration between the fields of data warehousing and data mining. Emphasizing applicability to real world problems, this journal meets the needs of both academic researchers and practicing IT professionals.The journal is devoted to the publications of high quality papers on theoretical developments and practical applications in data warehousing and data mining. Original research papers, state-of-the-art reviews, and technical notes are invited for publications. The journal accepts paper submission of any work relevant to data warehousing and data mining. Special attention will be given to papers focusing on mining of data from data warehouses; integration of databases, data warehousing, and data mining; and holistic approaches to mining and archiving
