FAQs

What is ETL?

ETL, an acronym for Extract, Transform, Load, is a vital data integration process. It involves extracting data from diverse sources, transforming it into a usable format, and loading it into a database, data warehouse or data lake. This process enables meaningful data analysis, enhancing business intelligence.

What is Excel File?

Excel File is a software application developed by Microsoft that allows users to create, edit, and analyze spreadsheets. It is widely used in businesses, schools, and personal finance to organize and manipulate data. Excel File offers a range of features including formulas, charts, graphs, and pivot tables that enable users to perform complex calculations and data analysis. It also allows users to collaborate on spreadsheets in real-time and share them with others. Excel File is available on multiple platforms including Windows, Mac, and mobile devices, making it a versatile tool for data management and analysis.

What is BigQuery?

BigQuery is an enterprise data warehouse that draws on the processing power of Google Cloud Storage to enable fast processing of SQL queries through massive datasets. BigQuery helps businesses select the most appropriate software provider to assemble their data, based on the platforms the business uses. Once a business’ data is acculumated, it is moved into BigQuery. The company controls access to the data, but BigQuery stores and processes it for greater speed and convenience.

What data can you extract from Excel File?

The Excel File provides access to a wide range of data types, including:  
• Workbook data: This includes information about the workbook itself, such as its name, author, and creation date.  
• Worksheet data: This includes data about individual worksheets within the workbook, such as their names, positions, and formatting.  
• Cell data: This includes information about individual cells within the worksheets, such as their values, formulas, and formatting.  
• Chart data: This includes data about any charts that are included in the workbook, such as their types, data sources, and formatting.  
• Pivot table data: This includes information about any pivot tables that are included in the workbook, such as their data sources, fields, and formatting.
• Macro data: This includes information about any macros that are included in the workbook, such as their names, code, and security settings.  

Overall, the Excel File's API provides developers with a comprehensive set of tools for accessing and manipulating data within Excel workbooks, making it a powerful tool for data analysis and management.

How do I transfer data from Excel File to BigQuery?

This can be done by building a data pipeline manually, usually a Python script (you can leverage a tool as Apache Airflow for this). This process can take more than a full week of development. Or it can be done in minutes on Airbyte in three easy steps: 
1. Set up Excel File as a source connector (using Auth, or usually an API key)
2. Set up BigQuery as a destination connector
3. Define which data you want to transfer and how frequently
You can choose to self-host the pipeline using Airbyte Open Source or have it managed for you with Airbyte Cloud. 

What are top ETL tools to extract data from

The most prominent ETL tools to transfer data from Excel File to BigQuery include:
- Airbyte
- Fivetran
- StitchData
- Matillion
- Talend Data Integration
These tools help in extracting data from Excel File and various sources (APIs, databases, and more), transforming it efficiently, and loading it into BigQuery and other databases, data warehouses and data lakes, enhancing data management capabilities.

What is ELT?

ELT, standing for Extract, Load, Transform, is a modern take on the traditional ETL data integration process. In ELT, data is first extracted from various sources, loaded directly into a data warehouse, and then transformed. This approach enhances data processing speed, analytical flexibility and autonomy.

Difference between ETL and ELT?

ETL and ELT are critical data integration strategies with key differences. ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) transforms data before loading, ideal for structured data. In contrast, ELT (Extract, Load, Transform) loads data before transformation, perfect for processing large, diverse data sets in modern data warehouses. ELT is becoming the new standard as it offers a lot more flexibility and autonomy to data analysts.
