Requirements Analysis: Understanding Your Data Needs

The first step is crucial to ensure that the ETL process meets the client's data needs. Here, our team conducts a detailed analysis of business requirements, identifying data sources and the type of transformation required. This involves discussions with stakeholders to understand the objectives and expected outcomes.

Additionally, we assess the quality of existing data to detect potential issues such as missing or inconsistent data. With this information, we can plan the best workflow for data extraction, transformation, and loading.

In this phase, the project scope is also defined, including the types of data to be extracted and the systems or platforms that will be part of the process. This clear and shared vision among all parties involved is essential for the success of the project.

At the end of this stage, a document with all the requirements and expectations will be delivered, serving as a guide for the next steps. This alignment is crucial to ensure that all objectives are met effectively.
