Data Integration
An organization needs to work with data which comes from different sources which
can be in various file formats. The data should be extracted from a different
source which can be from different servers or databases. This data is integrated
into one standard format in a common staging area.

Data Processing
In this stage, the integrated data is still not prepared for visualization as the
data needs processing. This data is pre-processed. For example, redundant values,
missing values will be removed from the data set.

The business rule should be applied to the data when the data is cleaned. You can
load that data back to Data Warehouse.
