Data Warehousing

You are implementing a data warehouse project for a client and need to evaluate the various tools available for extracting, transforming, and loading data into the data warehouse from various sources.

Problem:

- For your client in this case, select a company that is familiar to you.  Briefly describe the company and how it could benefit from a data warehouse.

- Research the leading ETL products available in the marketplace and write a comparison of their major features.  You must evaluate at least three tools from ETL vendors, such as Informatica, ETI, etc.

- Select the product that you feel best meets your client's requirements and explain your reasons for selecting that product.
