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.
The U.S. Census Bureau takes the pulse of the country’s economy. Producing economic data monthly, quarterly, yearly, and at five-year intervals requires high-tech solutions. The U.S. Census Bureau, in response to this need, has built an its first ever iPhone application, aimed at providing users with important economic statistics quickly and easily directly from an iPhone: the America’s Economy application.
The US Census Bureau's API provides access to a wide range of data related to the United States population and economy. The following are the categories of data that can be accessed through the API:
1. Demographic data: This includes information on population size, age, gender, race, ethnicity, and household characteristics.
2. Economic data: This includes data on employment, income, poverty, and industry.
3. Housing data: This includes data on housing units, occupancy, and characteristics of housing units.
4. Education data: This includes data on educational attainment, enrollment, and school districts.
5. Geographic data: This includes data on boundaries, locations, and maps.
6. Health data: This includes data on health insurance coverage, disability, and healthcare facilities.
7. Transportation data: This includes data on commuting patterns, modes of transportation, and traffic.
8. Business data: This includes data on businesses, employment, and revenue.
9. Agriculture data: This includes data on crops, livestock, and farms.
10. International data: This includes data on international trade, migration, and foreign-born population.
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.

JSON File is a tool that is used to store and exchange data in a structured format. JSON stands for JavaScript Object Notation, and it is a lightweight data interchange format that is easy for humans to read and write, and easy for machines to parse and generate. JSON files are commonly used in web applications to transfer data between the server and the client, and they are also used in many other programming languages and platforms. JSON files consist of key-value pairs, where each key is a string and each value can be a string, number, boolean, array, or another JSON object. The syntax of JSON is similar to that of JavaScript, but it is a separate language that can be used independently of JavaScript. JSON File is a tool that allows users to create, edit, and view JSON files. It provides a user-friendly interface for working with JSON data, and it can be used by developers, data analysts, and anyone else who needs to work with structured data. With JSON File, users can easily create and modify JSON files, and they can also validate the syntax of their JSON data to ensure that it is well-formed and error-free.
