*ETL Tools for PostgreSQL::*

Definition: An ETL process data to load into the database from a flat file

A. Extract
B. Transform
C. Load

1. PGLoader -  Load .csv file
2. Benetl 1.8 - Load .txt or .csv or .xls file
3. Talend Open Studio = http://www.talend.com/index.php
4. Pentaho Kettle = http://kettle.pentaho.com/
5. Visual Importer = Data can be imported from flat files,Excel.MS
Access,Oracle.Mysql.Interbase,PostgreSQL,oleDB,ODBC and DBF files.
6. CloverETL = http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CloverETL

Both [3 4] of these ETL solutions have a lot of the same types of features:


   - Both are Java based and run on Linux and Windows (Talend is
   Eclipse-based)
   - Visual designers for creating the transformations
   - Connectivity for a myriad of databases, including all the big DBs,
   text formats, etc.
   - Supports distributing jobs across multiple servers if you are doing
   serious lifting
   - Excellent error handling and error notification systems
   - Active and helpful forums (Kettle is older and seems to have a larger
   community however)
   - Free and open source
   - They are complex enough to handle a lot of tasks, but not so much as
   to kill you
   - There are versions of both (GeoKettle and Spatial Data Integrator)
   that are tailored for GIS

Thanks  Regards

Not exactly an ETL tool, but I've recently felt a sense of liberation since 
switching to make/python/psql/wget... for my ETL needs. Make is probably the 
cornerstone as it handles dependencies (think foreign key ordering with schema 
introspection) and parallel loading in a very intuitive way.

Cheers,

Tony

Forgot to mention that I do something more like ELT. Postgres itself is the 
best Transform tool.
