They are composed of different systems that need to communicate among themselves. Ask a developer to code routines for data integration is no longer a viable option so the rules change often and codes are not robust enough as those offered by the data integration tools. Talend (one of the leading open source integration) provides a data integration tool called Talend Open Source for data integration. There are few books on data integration. However Talend made enough effort and provided enough documentation on its products. This book far from being a copy an paste of official documentation addresses the problem from a different angle. The official documentation is a guide to the components while this book is more oriented use cases. This book is a step by step guide you can read from top to bottom if you are a beginner or go to specific chapters. This book has 12 chapters that show the most potential with examples of jobs to support Chapter 1: Knowing Talend Open Studio Chapter 2: Working with Talend Open Studio Chapter 3: Transforming Files Chapter 4: Working with Databases Chapter 5: Filtering, Sorting, and Other Processing Techniques Chapter 6: Managing Files Chapter 7: Job Orchestration Chapter 8: Managing Jobs Chapter 9: Global Variables and Contexts Chapter 10: Worked Examples The last chapter of the book covers the use of routines and the creation of new components. This book (http://www.packtpub.com/getting-started-with-talend-open-studio-for-data-integration/book) is a must read if you want to make the integration of data with TALEND.
