What is Extract Transform Load (ETL)

This chapter looks at the feasibility of creating a scalable data warehouse architecture in a higher education institution. The authors lay out the background of the historical data environment of the institution and look at ways in which the application of new technologies could better meet and exceed the needs of the institution moving forward. The chapter also covers the increased role security plays in the management and governance of data and the ways in which developing more secure aware employees through the use of People Centric Security (PCS) can reduce risk and drive positive change. The authors then look at the ten steps to create a better data framework which will allow for enhanced analytics and a greater return on investment.
