Ab Initio

fast, scales nicely and is fairly straightforward to maintain. Their
GDE makes it fairly strightforward to generate the ETL code and test
it.

the GDE requires windows.

Still buy Ab Initio and VMware.

It works. You can't say that about most things.

The product is well thought out and effective for scalable 
computing needs. If all you want to do is tickle a few thousand
records/minute use DBI. If you need to move millions then Ab Inito
is the best bet.

DBI is the obvious other choice. Partly because it also works, well,
and partly because it's now supported by Oracle. Perl also provides
the best general toolkit for mangling data available.
