How pushdown optimization works in Informatica?
The Data Integration Service processes all transformation logic that it cannot push to a database. When you apply pushdown optimization, the Data Integration Service analyzes the optimized mapping from the source to the target or until it reaches a downstream transformation that it cannot push to the source database.
How do you implement pushdown optimization?
To optimize the performance of the Snowflake session, configure full pushdown or source pushdown optimization in the session properties.
- Open the session properties for the session that you created.
- On the. Properties. tab, select the value of the.
- Click the. Mapping.
- Click. Sources.
- Click. View Pushdown Optimization.
Which transformation will not work with pushdown optimization?
The solution is to use custom query in Source transformation. Using variable ports in Expression transformation is not supported by Pushdown Optimization. The solution is to use to handle the logic in source query.
What are the optimization techniques in Informatica?
Optimization Methods
- Pushdown optimization.
- Early projection optimization.
- Early selection optimization.
- Branch pruning optimization.
- Push-into optimization.
- Predicate optimization.
- Global predicate optimization.
- Cost-based optimization.
What are the limitations of pushdown optimization in Informatica?
Pushdown Optimization Limitation
- Informatica Integration(IS) service can push SQL logic only for below transformations.
- Integration service transfer the transformation logic at database level, so we cannot able to find rejected rows.
- We cannot able to use variable port in Expression transformation.
What is advanced pushdown optimization in Informatica?
Informatica Advanced Pushdown Optimization (Advanced PDO) is specially designed to support modern cloud data warehouse and lake patterns, including traditional cloud data warehouse patterns currently in use by many vendors.
What are the limitations of pushdown optimization?
What is cross schema pushdown optimization?
You can enable cross-schema pushdown optimization for tasks that use source or target objects associated with different schemas within the same database. The Source and Target transformations must use two separate ODBC connections to run cross-schema pushdown optimization.
On which database can we configure pushdown optimization in Informatica?
The Data Integration Service can use full pushdown optimization for the following sources: Oracle. IBM DB2. Microsoft SQL Server.
What is update strategy transformation in Informatica?
Update Strategy Transformation is an active and connected transformation, which is used for Inserting, Updating, Deleting and rejecting the records in the target table. The target table should contain Primary key.
Can we update target without primary key Informatica?
Your only way to update without primary key is to write an Target override in Target.By doing this, you dont need primary key for updation.
Can we use joiner after aggregator?
To use joiner, you have to create dummy join ports first. After the aggregator, use an expression transformation to create a dummy output column with a hardcoded value “1”. You have to create two such expressions for A and B. Now connect them to a Joiner.
Is router a passive or active transformation?
The Router transformation is an active transformation that you can use to apply a condition to incoming data. passes the row multiple times. You can either drop rows that do not meet any of the conditions or route those rows to a default output group.
Can we update records without using update strategy?
You cannot perform “insert and delete” or “update and delete” at session level. You need to use update strategy and mark the record for insert, update or delete. Also the benifit of using update strategy is when you have data to be updated or deleted.
Which one is better joiner or Lookup in Informatica?
In terms of performance Joiner is better than LKP. In Joiner you can decide which table to cache you don’t have that option in LKP. Secondly if you use sorted input in joiner it doesn’t caches the whole master table at one go. Performance is much faster.
What is Informatica target override?
Target update override is also like source qualifier override. It is useful to update the target without using the update strategy transformation. You can find the Target Update Override option in the target definition properties tab. The syntax of update statement to be specified in Target Update Override is.
