Problem: unstructured data, relational tools

Many of today’s ETL tools and data integration software solutions were designed in the ‘90s to handle operational and legacy data stored in highly-structured data formats including relational databases and flat files.  Structured data remains a critical element for business analytics, but experts estimate that more than half the information generated by organizations today is unstructured or semi-structured “complex” data – stored in legacy systems, spreadsheets, word processing files or proprietary formats. Most ETL tools and data integration tools need to “flatten” complex data and read each data record separately and/or require developers to manually reestablish these relationships with custom code – a tedious and error-prone data mapping process that also creates performance bottlenecks.

Solution: process complex data natively and in-flight

The expressor data integration platform was built from the ground up to process complex data “natively” and “in-flight,”  which means expressor maintains the structure and hierarchy of complex data as it is extracted from one or multiple information sources, transformed and loaded into the target data formats.  By preserving the physical structures of complex data as it passes through the expressor data processing engine, this solution eliminates the need to deconstruct complex data for processing and reconstruct it for storage. In addition, the Data Processing Engine is capable of processing terabytes of data per hour, and it offers flexible deployment across Windows and Linux computers.
