ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) is a data integration process used by data engineers and analysts to pull data from multiple source systems, clean and reshape it, and load it into a target database or data warehouse. Tools like Informatica, Talend, SSIS, and Apache Airflow are commonly used to automate ETL pipelines, which are foundational to business intelligence and analytics workflows.
