Abstract: According to some embodiments, a method and an apparatus of analyzing log files comprises sampling a log and determining a structure associated with the log file based on the sampling and a pattern within the structure. If the structure and the pattern are stored in a repository, data from the log file will be exported into a database based on the determined pattern.

Abstract: Disclosed is a user interface on a display for editing data transformations comprising an ETL process. A first display area presents a data representation of a data transformation. A second display area presents a view of input data, and a third display are presents a view of output data. User input to modify the data transformation is received. In response to receiving the user input, the third display area is updated with output data generated by applying the modified data transformation to the input data.

Abstract: A computer readable medium includes executable instructions to audit data migration. The executable instructions include instructions to define a data migration path from a source to a target. Audit points are specified within the data migration path. Audit statistics to be generated at the audit points are identified. The audit statistics including data corresponding to individual data values transmitted over the data migration path. Audit rules to be applied against the audit statistics are established.

Abstract: A computer readable storage medium includes executable instructions to create a database structure that contains groups of linked data tables to store different types of metadata selected from Business Metadata, Structural Metadata and Operational Metadata. At least two different types of metadata are received. The database structure is populated with the at least two different types of metadata to form composite metadata.

Abstract: A computer readable storage medium includes executable instructions to accept a specification of an Extraction, Transformation, Load (ETL) task associated with source data. Source data is profiled to produce profiled data. Data conformance rules are defined from the profiled data. Mapping rules are generated in accordance with the collaborative specification and data conformance rules. The mapping rules are utilized to create an ETL task.
