Is it possible to use Babeldoc to create a db schema and populate tables directly from flat files without converting them into XML first? Reason is we have fairly large datasets (10s to 100s of GB's representing multi million lines of customer records and their transaction for last 2-4 years) that we get from ODS's and need to create a dimensional model off it. But to go through an intermediate step of convertinng all these flat file dumps into XML first, that won't be very practical. Any thoughts, ideas? or alternate open source means?
