    INTRODUCTION

    PowerCenter and PowerMart provide an environment that allows you to load data into a centralized
    location, such as a datamart, data warehouse, or operational data store (ODS).

    Extracts data from multiple sources, transform the data according to business logic you build in the
    client application, and load the transformed data into file and relational targets.

    INFORMATICA COMPONENTS

     Informatica repository.
     Informatica Repository Server
     Informatica Client
     Informatica Server
    INFORMATICA REPOSITORY

    The Informatica repository is at the center of the Informatica suite.

    You create a set of metadata tables within the repository database that the Informatica
    applications and tools access.

    The Informatica Client and Server access the repository to save and retrieve metadata.

    INFORMATICA REPOSITORY SERVER

    The Informatica Repository Server manages connections to the repository from client
    applications.

    It inserts, updates, and fetches objects from the repository database tables.

    It also maintains object consistency.

    INFORMATICA CLIENT

    Use the Informatica Client to

     Manage users
     Define sources and targets
     Build mappings and mapplets with the transformation logic
     Create workflows to run the mapping logic.

    The Informatica Client has four client applications:

     Repository Manager
     Designer, Workflow Manager
     Workflow Monitor

    Informatica Server

    The Informatica Server

     Extracts the source data


     Performs the data transformation
     Loads the transformed data into the targets.
    SOURCES~INFORMATICA

     Relational. Oracle, Sybase, Informix, IBM DB2, Microsoft SQL Server, and Teradata.
     File. Fixed and delimited flat file, COBOL file, and XML.
     Application. If you use PowerCenter, you can purchase additional PowerConnect
    products to access business sources such as PeopleSoft, SAP R/3, Siebel, IBM MQSeries,
    and Tibco.
     Mainframe. If you use PowerCenter, you can purchase PowerConnect for Mainframe for
    faster access to IBM DB2 on MVS.
     Other. Microsoft Excel and Access.

    Targets ~INFORMATICA

    PowerCenter and PowerMart can load data into the following targets:

     Relational. Oracle, Sybase, Sybase IQ, Informix, IBM DB2, Microsoft SQL Server, and
    Teradata.
