Hi,

I currently administer an ArcSDE database and have most things automated with Python and task scheduling. This works well but it is far from transparent and simple, and I feel I could use FME to automate the entire process. I'm thinking that while some of the process could be handled with the inbuilt transformers I would definitely still need to utilise ArcPy for most tasks and so would rely heavily on the PythonCaller transformer. 

Is this an avenue I should explore, or is this best dealt with another way? Has any one else successfully done this, and if so are there any examples available?

Thanks in advance.

Nathan
