dbi_loader
A specialised
data loading and migration PL/SQL package solution with XML support.
The loader has been developed as a light weight contender for the
more sophisticated ETL available on the market. The application is a
single Oracle PL/SQL package driven via XML configuration/metadata
files. Running and monitoring of loads is performed via HTML based
screens (ready to use if the Oracle HTTP listener is enabled).
-
Supports data loading methods via CREATE TABLE AS ... Oracle
partition exchange, INSERT APPEND, PL/SQL bulk loading.
-
PL/SQL bulk loading option processes and records data loading
exceptions on individual rows. Also able to perform update if
row already existing by using the MERGE command.
-
Closely coupled with the dbi Data Migration Methodology
supporting the various data transformation, validation, and
reporting stages and associated tasks.
-
Driven by XML configuration files. The characteristics of each
data load batch is defined by an XML document. The overall
migration schedule is also controlled by an XML configuration
document itemising all of the individual loads and their
dependencies.
-
Supports Oracle performance enhancing features such as index
disable and rebuild, statistics calculation, trigger and
constraint disable/enable.
-
Alerting of events during loading via e-mail and/or SMS.
-
HTML front end application to submit, stop, resubmit loads, and
to review built-in and custom reports. HTML is generated via XSL
applied to XML output, enabling the opportunity to customise the
screens and reports, including using your own corporate colours
and graphics.
-
XML configuration files enable very flexible source control,
deployment, and maintainability.
-
Built in object dependency monitoring and reporting to manage
impact analysis.
-
Built in performance analysis and monitoring features to
identify problematic loads.
-
A pure Oracle PL/SQL solution contained in one package for ease
of deployment and support. All XML, HTML, SMTP functionality
uses Oracle's built-in support for these technologies, via
PL/SQL native language features and/or built-in PL/SQL packages.
For future releases, we are looking at extending the sophistication
of the tool:
-
Define multiple dependencies between loads (i.e. splits and
joins waiting for all) to enable multi-threaded loading.
-
Generation of XML documents and messages to
perform tasks such as invoke services and instantiate business
processes in a BPM.
