The data integration pattern

The ETL vs ELT debate has its merits, but for those of us in energy and commodity markets, it misses something fundamental. Both patterns treat transformation as a monolithic step, when in reality there are two very different kinds of work: enrichment and transformation. They are not the same thing, and conflating them creates real problems.

That's why we think the energy industry needs its own pattern: EELT — Extract, Enrich, Load, Transform.

Why it matters

There's a moment every energy data manager remembers. A regulation changes with a 90-day deadline. A critical data source goes dark. A new trading partner needs integration and your vendor says "we can scope that, I'll have someone reach out about timeline." That's when you realize: you don't control your own infrastructure. Your vendor does.

And they're busy with someone else's emergency right now.
