USING VIEWS OF SUBSETS OF NODES OF A SCHEMA TO GENERATE DATA TRANSFORMATION JOBS TO TRANSFORM INPUT FILES IN FIRST DATA FORMATS TO OUTPUT FILES IN SECOND DATA FORMATS

Provided is a method for processing input data in a storage system and in communication with a repository. Views are generated that comprise a tree of nodes selected from a subset of nodes in a hierarchical representation of a schema. The views are saved to the repository. At least one of the views are used to create a job comprising a sequence of data transformation steps to transform the input data described by input schemas to the output data described by output schemas.
