A general ASCII file row based ingestion tool using the DBIngestor library. This tool allows you to define custom ASCII data formats similar to the MS SQL Server format files. However it is possible to define custom checks, transformation functions, derived data rows, and constant data rows. It is easy to extend the assertion and convertion functions, by implementing ones own functions in the DBIngestor library. Further the DBIngestor library provided data buffering for higher ingest performance and many interfaces to various DB systems.
