10 Open Source ETL Tools

Pentaho Data Integration (Kettle) is Java (Swing) application and library. Kettle is an interpreter of procedures written in XML format. The features and components are a little less compressive than Talend ones, however this doesn't restrict the complexity of the ETL procedures that can be implemented. Kettle provides a JavaScript engine (as well as a Java one) to fine tune the data manipulation process. Kettle is also a good tool, with everything necessary to build even complex ETL procedures.
