How ETL allows us to respond to clients:
Discovery Logic's expertise in ETL - extracting, transforming, loading -
allows the company to respond to client-specific needs. For example, one
customer needed to achieve a complete understanding of the research portfolio
it funds. Discovery Logic developed a convenient way to identify subject areas,
such as AIDS vaccine research; create a portfolio of related projects; and
examine key performance indicators for that portfolio. For this customer, funding
is allocated annually, but grants are multi-year, thus further complicating this
task. Discovery Logic responded by stringing grants together into “projects.” Each
project was then examined for its outputs at the individual project level - number
of publications, journals accepting the publications, Journal Impact Factors, citations,
coauthors, inventions (if any), patent applications, issued patents, links to clinical
trials, FDA-related devices or drugs and other quantitative and qualitative indicators.
Today, the customer can browse to a Website, develop an ad-hoc portfolio and examine its
key performance indicators in real time.
