You can enhance the mapping performance with SQL ELT.
You can read data from a cloud data warehouse and write it to the same cloud data warehouse. You can also read data from a data lake in your cloud ecosystem and write it to a cloud data warehouse in the same ecosystem. Data Integration translates the transformation logic into ecosystem-specific commands and SQL statements that run in the underlying cloud infrastructure. This increases the data processing speed because the data is not moved out of the cloud infrastructure for processing.
Example
You work for healthcare solutions and your organization provides healthcare technology to pharmacies and pharmacy chains. You enable pharmacies to process prescriptions, store and provide access to healthcare records, and improve patient outcomes. Your organization stores its data in Amazon S3.
The management wants to create a patient-centric pharmacy management system. The organization plans to leverage the warehouse infrastructure of
Google
BigQuery
and load all its data to
Google
BigQuery
so that they can make operational, financial, and clinical decisions with ease.
To load data from an Amazon S3 object to
Google
BigQuery
, you must use SQL ELT with the required transformations that support the data warehouse model. Use an Amazon S3 V2 connection to read data from the Amazon S3 source and a
Google BigQuery
V2
connection to write to a
Google
BigQuery
target.
You can enhance the performance of the task and reduce the costs involved by configuring SQL mappings.
