ABSTRACT:
The fundamental processes in data integration continue to present challenges to enterprises. This is not because the fundamentals have changed, but rather that expectations for data volumes to support reporting and analysis continue to increase. Although many look for the next emerging technology to solve data integration bottlenecks, it is clear to those that have been successful in handling their enterprise's data volume needs that techniques and tools already exist, are affordable, and can be quickly implemented.
The best approach to successful, large-scale data integration is to leverage file utilities for those processes that require processing of large, structured data sets. This approach may not get the attention that emerging technologies may, but look under the covers of many successful data integration applications and you will find that this approach is part of the savvy data integration practitioner's, tips & tricks' arsenal.
