BigDimETL with NoSQL Database

In the last decade, we have witnessed an explosion of data volume available on the Web. This is due to the rapid technological advances with the availability of smart devices and social networks such as Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, etc. Hence, the concept of Big Data was created to face this constant increase. In this context, many domains should take in consideration this growth of data, especially, the Business Intelligence (BI) domain. Where, it is full of important knowledge that is crucial for effective decision making. However, new problems and challenges have appeared for the Decision Support System that must be addressed. Accordingly, the purpose of this paper is to adapt Extract-Transform-Load (ETL) processes with Big Data technologies, in order to support decision-making and knowledge discovery. In this paper, we propose a new approach called Big Dimensional ETL (BigDimETL) dealing with ETL development process and taking into account the Multidimensional structure. In addition, in order to accelerate data handling we used the MapReduce paradigm and Hbase as a distributed storage mechanism that provides data warehousing capabilities. Experimental results show that our ETL operation adaptation can perform well especially with Join operation.
