Hi, On all DW project I've been, the ETL tool was on the database server containing the DW database.
On the current project, the architecture team has decided that the ETL tool (Data Junction) will be on its own server (Windows) to service all projects needing ETL processing. We are the first client of this approach. All sources will ftp their files on the unix box where the staging/data integration database is. So that means that the the ETL tool on server A will read the files and the reference tables from server B, process that on server A and insert the cleansed data on server B. Somewhere I'm not confortable with that approach.
