Abstract: ETL is a tool suite for data loading and maintaining of data warehouse.How to efficiently shorten the ETL process execution time is a big challenge because the volume of data to be processed is very large. Four types of view horizontal patition approaches such as " single fact derived by one view", " single fact derived by many views", "many facts derived by one view" and "many facts derived by many views" are proposed to shorten the execution time.The theory and experiment result prove it to be efficient.

Key words: ETL, horizontal partition, incremental maintenance
