Скачать или смотреть Introduction to information Lifecycle Management and its relationship with ETL - PowerDesigner

Information Lifecycle Management (ILM) refers to the strategies and tools used to manage data throughout its entire lifecycle—from creation and usage to archiving and disposal. In PowerDesigner, ILM is supported through Data Movement Modeling (DMM), which provides a comprehensive view of how data flows, transforms, and is stored across systems.

One key component of ILM is ETL (Extract, Transform, Load), which involves extracting data from multiple sources, transforming it into the desired format, and loading it into target systems like data warehouses. PowerDesigner enables the visual modeling of ETL processes, including source and target mappings, transformations, data flows, and control flows, helping teams design efficient, traceable, and maintainable data integration solutions that align with enterprise ILM strategies.
