title: How to perform ETL process performace testing
body: <p>I have been asked to perform performance testing of ETL process. I use Jmeter for performace testing of web applications, but this is the first time I have been asked to do it for ETL process. After researching I think what I want to achieve are the below steps but do not know how to achieve them.</p>
  
  <p>The steps are</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Verify that data loads and queries are executed within anticipated time frames </li>
  <li>Verify that maximum anticipated volume of data is loaded within an acceptable time frame </li>
  <li>Verify load times with various amounts of data to predict scalability  </li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Note: Our Company is not using any tool to for testing ETL process and they are doing it using java, so for performance testing also, I will not be provided with any paid tool, I will have to use open source technologies. My skill sets includes java, Jmeter.</p>
