2007/1/23, Paul Lambert <paul.lambert@autoledgers.com.au>:
G'day,

Is there an equivalent in Postgres to the DTS Packages available in M$
SQL server.

I use these in SQL server to pre-load data from CSV files prior to
enabling replication from my primary application. Any pointers on where
best to go for this would be appreciated. I'm reading about something
called EMS, is that the way to go?

Sample of one of the files I use:

Paul,
what you're looking for exists in a number of variations.
You can use a good text editor with the postgres' COPY command for simple bulk .csv loading, but in the long run, you might want to consider a full-fledged ETL tool like the Pentaho Data Integration suite.  It allows you to use a wide variety of data sources (anything with a jdbc driver, .xls, .csv, .xml for starters), chain data transformations, store them and execute them on a regular basis or on-demand from a java app etc. A number of such tools are available, but I suggested Pentaho Data Integration as I have experience with it and because it is under an open source licence. If anyone can suggest a better tool for the job, please say so: I for one would like to have my horizons broadened. :)

Cheers,
t.n.a.
