DataStage

DataStage is an ETL tool used to extract, transform and load data from multiple sources into a data warehouse. The goal of DataStage is to provide businesses with an efficient and automated solution for accessing and analysing large volumes of information across platforms and systems – it can build pipelines, perform data cleansing functions, integrate multiple sources together into one database and produce reports.

DataStage is a GUI-based tool for designing, developing, testing, and deploying data integration applications. It helps organizations with data analysis as it facilitates data extraction, transformation, and loading applications that help support data warehouses and marts.

DataStage helps organisations integrate structured, semi-structured and unstructured data. It connects databases, flat files, XML files and online services.

Companies can aggregate information from multiple sources using DataStage as it transforms, cleanses and verifies it before placing it into its target location.

DataStage supports Oracle, SQL Server, DB2, and Sybase databases as well as CSV, XML and JSON formats for CSV files and JSON documents.

Furthermore, DataStage features many data transformation components as well as reports and dashboards to allow for data visualisation.
