Talend Open Studio comprises three major applications (Business Modeler, Job Designer, and Metadata Manager) within a single graphical development environment based on Eclipse, which is easily adapted to corporate needs.

[advt]The Talend Open Studio Business Modeler uses a top-down approach that allows line-of-business stakeholders to get involved in the design of integration processes and to monitor development progress. Business Models are non-technical and business-oriented views built using the convenient library of shapes and links.
The Business Modeler groups all relevant documentation supporting open source data integration, data migration and data synchronization processes in a business-friendly diagram. This is a very efficient way of monitoring jobs and performing impact analysis if a problem arises.

The Talend Open Studio Job Designer provides both a graphical and a functional view of actual integration processes using a graphical palette of open source components and connectors. Integration processes are built by simply dragging and dropping these components and connectors onto the workspace, drawing connections and relationships between them, and setting their properties.
Components and connectors cover all types of tasks and operations relating to the data itself, data management and data flow sequencing. Connectors help access and read/write all data source and target systems for data integration, data migration and data synchronization. Refer to homepage for a complete list of supported connectors.

All metadata is stored and managed in a Metadata Manager (repository) shared by all modules. The repository centralizes all project information and ensures consistency across all integration processes.
Meta information related to source and target systems of integration processes is easily loaded in the Metadata Manager through advanced system, database or file introspection facilitated by a number of wizards. The Metadata Manager is based on an open relational model, where job dependencies can be easily identified, facilitating the maintenance of the data integration, data migration and data synchronization jobs.
