More Information
Summary:Mining data transformation flows in spreadsheets includes identifying operations defined in a spreadsheet, identifying source data, in the spreadsheet, on which the operations operate, automatically creating an extract, transform, load (ETL) data transformation flow, and executing the created ETL data transformation flow. Creating the ETL data transformation flow includes selecting, in the ETL system, source data endpoint(s) for data extraction, selecting target data endpoint(s) for data loading, mapping at least one of the identified operations to ETL operation(s) for data transformation, and building the ETL data transformation flow, which defines extraction from the selected source data endpoint(s), transformation based on the ETL operation(s), and loading to the selected target data endpoint(s).
