This course is meant for anyone who wants to know how to deliver ETL solutions using Talend. Maybe you’re an IT manager looking for a cost-efficient ETL solution, an IT professional looking to broaden your skill set, or a BI or data warehouse consultant responsible for developing ETL solutions in your organization. Maybe you’re a software developer with a lot of experience building open source solutions but still new to the world of data integration. And maybe you’re already an experienced ETL developer with deep knowledge of one or more of the existing proprietary tools. In any case, I assume you have a hands-on mentality because this is a hands-on course. I do expect some familiarity with using computers to deliver information, installing software, and working with databases, but most of the topics will be explained right from the start. Of course, the data integration concepts are explained as well, but the primary focus is on how to transform these concepts into a working solution. That is exactly why the course is called Talend ETL Solutions.

This course will teach you:

• What data integration is, and why you need it

• How to install and configure Talend
