Project Camel
Pros Flexibility very lightweight
Potential to Custom Fit some integration
requirements
Lower Cost - Licensing
Product Development Methodology.
Open Source
Heavily aligned with Java
Automation/Continuous Development
Integrated Testing Framework
Limited cross project environment impact
Cons Unavailability of specialized components to achieve
high volume (>0.5M) data lookups/dataset joins
Need to leverage DB feature of joins by persisting data.
Sorting and aggregation on the huge intermittent
datasets.
Removal of duplicates to retain last record on huge
dataset.
State maintenance is required to have restart 'ability /
job recoverability.
Unavailability of CDC (Change Data Capture).
Any batch use case (though its a flow) dealing with
large volumes of data on which mathematical
calculations are performed collectively should be
avoided.
Pivoting is yet another scenario where stream and split
processing is not possible which is performed on entire
Talend Open Studio
Native ETL tool with more than 900
components and built-in connectors that
allows easy linking of wide array of sources
and targets.
Lesser TTM (GUI Based) creating
straightforward, simple, code in the least
amount of time.
Built-In components for Joins/Lookups on
medium volume of data.
Column level data aggregation can be
achieved easily.
Built-In components for data sorting and for
eliminating duplicates.
Built-In CDC functionality.
Modularization can be achieved through jobs.
Reusability - efficient reuse of sharable
objects.
Talend does not follow Target's dev ops
approach such as building in reusable test
cases within applications
Talend's open studio toolset doesn't
incorporate code within a software repository
(e.g. GIT)
Talend doesn't follow automated CI/CD
pipeline best practice.
Un-availability of component level
parallelism (sequential execution). This
requires vertical scaling of environment as
the data grows.
No component for parsing binary mainframe
files.
Hadoop
Open source technology.
Highly scalable distributed system that use
commodity software.
Self-managing and self-healing, Built-In
mechanism for machine outage recovery.
Highly fault tolerant.
Enterprise Infrastructure can be leveraged.
Efficient processing of exponentially
growing data.
Brings the computation as physically close
to the data for best bandwidth, instead of
copying the data.
Efficiently handling batch workloads.
Built-In techniques for
Large volumes and parallel data
processing.
Large data Sorting.
Aggregation.
Complex calculations.
Multiple heterogeneous source system.
Multiple lookups/joins.
Ideal for both batch Processing and Data
Streaming.
Can be leveraged for Data Migration,
Historical loads and Historical Storage.
Not fit for small data.
Compliance data needs to be encrypted
before processing.
Hadoop File System is immutable. Files
cannot be modified.
Multiple tools involved in the ecosystem
which need to be expertized.
 FFA
FFA project includes medium data volume ( < 10 Million) and huge
transformations such as mathematical calculations, series of joins/lookups to
integrate data that is scattered across multiple systems and data roll ups, Talend
could be used for its conversion.

WFM
WFM project includes Huge data volume ( 50-600 Million) and transformations
such as mathematical calculations, series of joins/lookups to integrate data that
is scattered across multiple systems and data roll ups. Multiple Historical Loads
for drivers (1800+ Stores , 2 Years Data ) Needs to be migrated to Kronos.
