"For TUI Musement, Airbyte cut development time in half and enabled dynamic customer experiences."
Chase Zieman
“Airbyte helped us accelerate our progress by years, compared to our competitors. We don’t need to worry about connectors and focus on creating value for our users instead of building infrastructure. That’s priceless. The time and energy saved allows us to disrupt and grow faster.”
Rupak Patel
"With Airbyte, we could just push a few buttons, allow API access, and bring all the data into Google BigQuery. By blending all the different marketing data sources, we can gain valuable insights."
Begin by thoroughly understanding the format and structure of the source data you intend to move. This involves identifying data types, data size, and any specific requirements such as encoding that might affect the transfer process.
Once you understand the data structure, prepare the data for export. If it's stored in a database, use SQL queries to export the data into a CSV or TXT file format. Ensure that the exported file is clean, meaning no corrupt rows or invalid entries that could disrupt the import process.
Gain access to your Teradata Vantage environment. This includes ensuring you have the necessary credentials, permissions, and network access to log in and perform data import operations. Familiarize yourself with the Teradata SQL Assistant or BTEQ (Basic Teradata Query) tool, as these will be used for data loading.
Before importing data, create the necessary tables in Teradata to hold the data. Use the `CREATE TABLE` statement to define the schema corresponding to your source data. Make sure the data types in Teradata match or are compatible with those of the source data to avoid type conversion errors.
Transfer the exported data files to a location accessible by Teradata. This could be a network shared drive or a directory on the Teradata server itself where you have write access. Use secure file transfer methods like SCP or SFTP if transferring files over the network.
Utilize Teradata's native tools such as FastLoad, MultiLoad, or TPT (Teradata Parallel Transporter) to import the data files into Teradata tables. These tools are specifically designed to handle large data transfers efficiently. For example, a FastLoad script can be used to import CSV files directly into Teradata tables.
After loading the data, perform checks to ensure the data integrity in Teradata matches the source data. This can be done by running queries to count rows and verify sample records. If there are discrepancies, investigate and reload the necessary data. Finally, clean up any temporary files or tables used during the import process to maintain a tidy environment.
By following these steps, you can efficiently move data to Teradata Vantage without relying on third-party connectors or integrations.
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 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.
