About Vena ETL Performance Enhancement / Speedup

Slow ETL processing and long update cycles are significant productivity killers, forcing teams to wait hours for data. We optimize your Vena ETL processes using incremental refresh and advanced techniques to achieve high speed and enable multiple daily refreshes.

Key FP&A Challenges

Excessive refresh times, high data volume, and ETL bottlenecks hinder productivity, forcing FP&A teams to wait hours or overnight for critical data.

Slow Refreshes

Vena cube updates can take hours

Data Bottlenecks

high data volume slows down processing

Productivity Loss

waiting overnight delays crucial decisions

Vena Limitations

standard Vena ETL can be hard to debug.

Rigid Processing

ETL flow lacks optimization techniques

DSCIM diagnoses and tunes ETL processes, dramatically reducing refresh times from hours to minutes, giving your Vena system a turbo boost.

Why DSCIM’s Approach Stands Out

Incremental Refresh
Updates only recent data, not the full set.
Easy Diagnosis
ETL process is transparent and quickly analyzed.
SQL Optimization
Leverages full, powerful SQL capabilities.
Parallel Processing
Custom techniques ensure data throughput.
Rapid Refreshes
Reduces Vena update times to 30 minutes.

Key Steps in Vena ETL Performance Enhancement/Speedup

Performance Audit: Identifying Bottlenecks
  • Analyze ETL Flow
    • Identify which ETL steps take longest.
  • Data Volume Check
    • Analyze tables for distinct value count.
  • Identify Unused Fields
    • Eliminate unnecessary columns from imports.
Optimization Strategy: Incremental Data Handling
  • Historical Split
    • Divide data into static and current tables.
  • Incremental Logic
    • Implement delete/insert instead of truncate.
  • SQL Query Tuning
    • Optimize complex or slow SQL requests.
Vena File Refinement: Minimizing Load Size
  • Filter CSV Exports
    • Generate small CSVs based on date filters.
  • Targeted Clear Slice
    • Clear only updated data slice in Vena.
  • Review Transactional Data
    • Limit large drill-to-transactions for speed.
Proactive Monitoring: Ensuring Continued Speed
  • Automated Monitoring
    • Continuously track execution time of ETL.
  • Set Up Notifications
    • Receive alerts upon job completion/failure.
  • Maintain Performance
    • Guarantee rapid processing for all data volumes.
