There are several emerging data trends that will define the future of ETL in 2018. In 2018, we anticipate that ETL will either lose relevance or the ETL process will disintegrate and be consumed by new data architectures. With the arrival of new cloud-native tools and platform, ETL is becoming obsolete. More details on this approach.

Each HTTP request that is required for the page needs to travel over the network and in turn this consumes energy on both the server and client. Without effective caching on the client, the server will see an increase in workload, more CPU usage and ultimately increased latency for the end user. It’s a win-win all round!
