Pentaho Data Integration - Introduction
Data is everywhere. I once heard someone saying that data is the next Intel Inside.Well, just look around and I think it’s very true indeed.
Pentaho Data Integration (PDI) is a powerful, metadata-driven ETL tool designed to bridge the gap between business and IT; Previously it’s known as Kettle (Kettle ETTL Environment).The best thing is: it’s FREE. Yeah…admit it,we do like FREE things right ?
The fact is, I’m into Ubuntu now,hence I’m testing this on top of it. No worries if you are using other operating system,PDI is coded using Java so it’s by right platform independent

(Note:Login:admin,Password:admin)
PDI 3.1 have support for 34 database types and a generic database connection for the others. It’s cool right. You can connect to almost all database in this universe.

This is how PDI look like.

If you are in ETL,DW,BI Industry, this is very good stuff to look into. I will definetly explore this tool in my FREE time.
Till then…adioss.
