 is a Codeless ETL Tool. It has two major components Data transformation engine and Automation engine&lt;/p>




&lt;h2 id="transformation-example">Transformation Example&lt;/h2>

&lt;p>The transformation engine converts data from one format to another, such as converting a text file into an Excel file. A typical transformation process includes the following components: a reader, a validator, a transformer, and a writer. Data flows sequentially through these components, moving from left to right.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>Visual Importer ETL Introduction</title><link>https://www.etl-tools.com/wiki/visual-importer-etl/introduction/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Aug 2022 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://www.etl-tools.com/wiki/visual-importer-etl/introduction/</guid><description>&lt;div class="d-flex alert alert-danger " role="alert">

&lt;h2 id="mqtt-protocol">MQTT Protocol&lt;/h2>

&lt;p>MQTT (originally an initialism of MQ Telemetry Transport) is a lightweight, publish-subscribe network protocol that transports messages between devices. The protocol usually runs over TCP/IP, however, any network protocol that provides ordered, lossless, bi-directional connections can support MQTT. It is designed for connections with remote locations where resource constraints exist or the network bandwidth is limited.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>Office 365 Email Logger Introduction</title><link>https://www.etl-tools.com/wiki/office365-email-logger/introduction/</link><pubDate>Sun, 07 Apr 2024 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://www.etl-tools.com/wiki/office365-email-logger/introduction/</guid><description>&lt;p>Office365 Email Logger uses Microsoft Graph API processes email messages using the scheduler.

&lt;p>Health Level Seven or HL7 refers to a set of international standards for the transfer of clinical and administrative data between software applications used by various healthcare providers. These standards focus on the application layer, which is &amp;ldquo;layer 7&amp;rdquo; in the OSI model. The HL7 standards are produced by Health Level Seven International, an international standards organization, and are adopted by other standards issuing bodies such as American National Standards Institute and International Organization for Standardization.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>IMAP4 Email Logger Introduction</title><link>https://www.etl-tools.com/wiki/imap4-email-logger/introduction/</link><pubDate>Sun, 31 Mar 2024 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://www.etl-tools.com/wiki/imap4-email-logger/introduction/</guid><description>&lt;p>IMAP4 Email Logger processes email messages using the scheduler.

&lt;p>Apache Kafka is a distributed event store and stream-processing platform. It is an open-source system developed by the Apache Software Foundation written in Java and Scala. The project aims to provide a unified, high-throughput, low-latency platform for handling real-time data feeds. Kafka can connect to external systems (for data import/export) via Kafka Connect, and provides the Kafka Streams libraries for stream processing applications. Kafka uses a binary TCP-based protocol that is optimized for efficiency and relies on a &amp;ldquo;message set&amp;rdquo; abstraction that naturally groups messages together to reduce the overhead of the network roundtrip. This &amp;ldquo;leads to larger network packets, larger sequential disk operations, contiguous memory blocks [&amp;hellip;] which allows Kafka to turn a bursty stream of random message writes into linear writes.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>File System Event Logger Introduction</title><link>https://www.etl-tools.com/wiki/file-system-event-logger/introduction/</link><pubDate>Sun, 17 Apr 2022 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://www.etl-tools.com/wiki/file-system-event-logger/introduction/</guid><description>&lt;p>File System Event Logger writes information about file system changes into the database.&lt;/p>
