Answer / Ajai Kumar Dwivedi

In one project, we had to combine data from multiple tables in an Oracle database, perform calculations, and aggregate results. The source tables contained customer details, order history, and product information. To achieve this, we created a job that used SQL scripts for transformation, joining tables on specific columns, applying business rules (e.g., calculating total sales), and grouping by certain attributes (e.g., customer or product). Finally, the aggregated data was exported to a CSV file.
