What is ETL (Extract, Transform, Load)?
- ETL (Extract, Transform, Load)
- ETL is the data pipeline process of extracting data from sources, transforming it into the right format, and loading it into a data warehouse or BI tool.
What is ETL?
ETL stands for Extract, Transform, Load — the three steps of moving data from source systems (ERP, CRM, spreadsheets) into a centralised data warehouse for reporting and analysis.
Why ETL Matters
Raw data from different systems is inconsistent and siloed. ETL cleans, standardises, and merges it so BI dashboards show a single version of the truth.
Tools
Apache Airflow, Talend, dbt, and Python scripts are common ETL tools. ERPNext's Data Import/Export features serve as lightweight ETL for small businesses.
