Executive Summary (This is a document excerpt)

With the long awaited "Paris" release of Oracle Warehouse Builder 10gR2 (OWB) finally available, Oracle has delivered a scaleable, user-friendly, and feature-rich ETL solution at a much more attractive price than its competitors: Free! Base OWB functionality is bundled at no charge with the purchase of an Oracle Standard Edition One, Standard Edition, or Enterprise Edition database. That's great news for enterprises already using — or planning to use — Oracle databases in their environment, but you can't purchase OWB without an Oracle DB, which is a limiting factor for some enterprises. OWB also offers improved connectivity to non-Oracle source platforms and applications, but target load and connectivity is still optimized for Oracle database and data warehousing environments.
