Evolution of Extract-Transform-Load (ETL) Processes Towards Data Product Pipelines

Learn about the evolution of Extract-Transform-Load (ETL) processes in this 16-minute conference talk that explores how traditional data processing methods are adapting to meet modern data monetization needs. Discover how the emergence of data as a first-class asset has spurred the development of specialized infrastructures and tools, with a particular focus on ETL's role in internal data operations. Examine new data exchange ecosystems like Data Spaces, Gaia-X, and SIMPL that enable external data monetization through sharing and selling. Through the lens of the DATAMITE project, explore a technological comparison of traditional ETL tools versus modern data product pipelines, complete with real-world scenarios and use cases that demonstrate practical benefits and applications.
