Talend releases the new version (4.0) of Open Studio & Integration Suite
Talend has recently released a new version of Open Studio (V 4.0) which has significantly improved the functionality of the product in all areas. As a result of the changes in the product and the increasing support for open source solutions amongst the user community we have "promoted" Talend from the previous classification as a "Niche" product and have reclassified Open Studio as a "Pure ETL " product. In terms of all the functionality that we measure Open Sudio compares very well with the established market leaders in the ETL / Data Integration marketplace and in our opinion makes them a viable alternative for the first time.

What You See Is What You Get (WYSIWYG)
All the ETL vendors say the same thing: “our biggest competitor is custom code and stored procedures”. There are still a large number of organizations building data warehouses without using an ETL tool, writing their own, mostly very complex, SQL statements, often difficult to maintain. This is not very smart if you realize that an ETL tool can increase productivity by a factor of three to five. Two of the most important features in this case are that these tools are completely meta data driven, and work with an easy to understand graphical user interface (GUI). Some ETL tools are not only meta data driven, but in addition, they have an embedded data driven approach. They can show you, at any time you choose, how the data will be transformed and loaded into the data warehouse, without actually loading it. At any time, the user can press the ‘WYSIWYG’ button, and the ETL tool shows immediately what the results of an ETL flow would be.
