RETL is a high-performance, scalable, platform-independent, parallel processing data movement tool. RETL addresses several primary needs: Database-independent application. Platform-independent applications. Developing applications more quickly than possible with conventional coding methods (such as custom-crafted C or C++ code). High-performance data processing To provide for these needs, RETL defines an interface in XML that applications can call to define Extraction, Transformation, and Loading (ETL) functions. This interface is in a well-defined XML form that allows access to any database that RETL supports. RETL is a cross-platform development tool supported on Oracle Linux. The XML definitions do not change on a per-platform basis, so moving between hardware platforms is simplified. Development of the XML instructions for RETL is simpler, faster, and less error-prone than writing C or C++ code. Applications can be completed much faster than possible with previous methods.
