Greece's Public Sector merges its data, how it was done

Fuzz Box: Greece's Public Sector merges its data, how it was done
Kallikratis is the codename of the largest project ever conceived in the later years (2010-2011) of Greece's public sector digitalisation / computerisation effort and was founded by the Ministry of Interior and Decentralization.


The goal? To migrate different datasets spread among different applications and databases within the public sector's infrastructure.
That accounts to million rows of citizens' and public organizations' data / datasets distributed among different applications, structures, databases etc. having to be migrated in a homogenous, valid, normalized and commonly accepted data structure. In other words an ETL - Extract Transform Load process was required.
