Enterprise ETL - Keep It Simple Stupid

 I wish I had a dollar for every time I see a consultancy roll in with a development framework of one sort or another that is the answer to all our problems. More often than not these cobbled-together code-bundles are merely a foot in the door for bringing in legions of more consultants to utilise the framework to build the solution. It’s all a big con. The value added by these frameworks is often less than the value of building the solution from scratch.

Personally I always apply the KISS principle. Keep It Simple (Stupid!). If the solution isn’t lean and straight-forward then it is likely to be more trouble than it’s worth.

Generally a simple ETL design can be applied for the majority of development. Ensuring that adequate coding standards are developed in conjunction with templates, can help with code consistency, simplicity and maintainability.
