 ETL And EAI Integration
Compared
Data Messages

Unit of “Package” – an XML definition of Schema that capture structure/

modeling “workflow” and data flow Contracts that capture behavior
Unit of “Synchronous” DTS “Pipeline” Asynchronous message passing
Interaction for data movement

Unit of Pipeline rowset buffers – via XML-based metadata

sharing heterogenous source and (WSDL/XSD)
destination adapters
Instancing DTS Service controls instances Weak/opaque URI-based
references
Extensibility Scripts, SQL, custom Intermediaries and message
components routing
Platform Databases Multiple
Versioning Version schemas for packages Simple – open schemas

12
EAI/ETL Prescriptive
Guidance
Data designs excel when…
Bulk data load
Database centric environment
Message designs excel when…
Can’t guarantee atomic deployment
Platform/environment flexibility desired
Connected-ness is a central capability

 EAI Messaging Patterns
1) Y 2)
3)

• Fire and Forget • Request / Reply Y • Needs ability to

cache response
Y
• No Response required • System makes request from multiple
requests to
and gets response
respond to one

4A/B) XREF
• Multiple Applications
needed to satisfy request
• 4A: XREF Look-up
• 4B: XREF Update
5) 6A)
• Publish Subscribe
• Needs data from Z to be
• A, B and C subscribe to message able to update Y

 Shared EAI/ETL Patterns

3)
• Z is updated by X
ETL XREF
• Info in Z needed to update Y 4B)

• Y is a high-volume db • EAI reads XREF

• EAI is maintaining ODS (replica • ETL updates XREF
