RE: Extract / Transform Process
 
Generally this is going to be 2 stage process, some times 3 stage depends on the requirement.
Most of the time its 2 stage process. In first phase is to extract data from different source systems for eg : Oracle, Flat Files, SAP etc. and load into Stage area as it is and in 2nd stage apply transformation/business rules and load from Stage area to Datawarehouse/mart.
