A method and system for flexibly transferring data from one or more data
sources to one or more data destinations within an information network
where each of the one or more data sources have data in a particular
source format and each of the one or more data destinations have data in
the same or another particular destination format using a parameter
database that includes parameters to control the transfer of data, a
scheduler that initiates the transfer of data, and a data loader in
communications with the parameter database and scheduler that, upon
initiation by the scheduler, extracts data from the one or more data
sources, manipulates the extracted source data into one or more
destination formats associated with the one or more data destinations,
and inserts the data into one or more data destinations according to the
parameters within the parameter database.
