ETL - An Overview
ETL stands for Extraction, Transformation and Load
The "E" represents the ability to consistently and reliably extract data with high performance and minimal impact to
the source system
The "T" represents the ability to transform one or more data sets in batch or real-time into a consumable format
The "L" stands for loading data into a persistent or virtual data store

Why ETL is Still Relevant
Is ETL becoming a History with the advent of Big Data?
Data needs to flow from source applications into analytic data stores in a controlled, reliable, secure manner
Information needs to be standardized, with regards to semantics, format and lexicon, for accurate analysis
Operational results need to be consistent and repeatable
Operational results need to be verifiable and transparent

Facilitates Integration of data from various data sources for building a Data warehouse
Businesses have data in multiple databases with different codification and formats
Transformation is required to convert and to summarize operational data into a consistent, business oriented format
Pre-Computation of any derived information
Summarization is also carried out to pre-compute summaries and aggregates
Makes data available in a query-able format
Why ETL is Still Relevant
Mergers and acquisitions also
create disparities in data
representation and pose more
difficult challenges in ETL.

Why Informatica?

PowerCenter:
It is a single, unified enterprise data integration platform that allows companies and government organizations
of all sizes to access, discover and integrate data from virtually any business system, in any format and deliver
that data throughout the enterprise at any speed.
An ETL tool ( Extract, Transform and Load)
The main advantages of PowerCenter over other ETL tools lies in its robustness, for it can be used in both
Windows and Unix based systems.
 PowerCenter can read from a variety of different sources and write to as many targets, while transforming data
in between.
The main advantages of PowerCenter over other ETL tools, and hence a reason for its popularity over other
such tools are as follows:
» It is robust, and can be used in both windows and UNIX based systems
» It is high performing yet very simple for developing, maintaining and administering
Introduction to PowerCenter

The architecture of Informatica PowerCenter (version 9.x onwards) is based on the service Oriented Architecture
(SOA) concept.
A service-oriented architecture (SOA) can be defined as a group of services, which communicate with each other.
The process of communication involves either simple data passing or it could involve two or more services
coordinating same activity.
Informatica 9.X represents a major change in the architecture of the product line.
Aim: Its main aim is to provide improved performance and high availability.
Approach: By reengineering the underlying architecture has been made even more services-based.

The PowerCenter server components comprises of the following services:
Repository service: The Repository service manages the repository. It retrieves, inserts, and updates metadata into
the repository database tables.
Integration service: The Integration service runs sessions and workflows.
SAP BW service: The SAP BW service looks out for RFC requests from SAP BW and initiates workflows to extract data
from, or load data into the SAP BW.
Web services hub: The Web services hub receives requests from web service clients and exposes PowerCenter
workflows as services.

The salient features of a Domain are as follows:
» A Domain is a logical collection or set of nodes and services.
» The PowerCenter Domain is the fundamental administrative unit of PowerCenter.
» A Domain can be a single PowerCenter installation, or it can consist of multiple PowerCenter installations.
The salient features of a node are as follows:
» A node is a logical representation of a physical machine. It has physical attributes such as a hostname and a
port number.
» Each node runs a service manager which is responsible for the application and core services.
» A node can be a gateway node or a worker node, but it can belong to only one Domain.
Informatica - Domain & Nodes

A service can be described as follows:
A service is a resource that provides specialized functions. All PowerCenter processes run as services on a node.
PowerCenter has two types of services:
» Application Services represent server based functions including Repository and Integration Services.
» Core Services represent functions that manage and maintain the environment in which PowerCenter operates
and include services like Log Service, Licensing Service, and Domain Service amongst many others.
Informatica- Services

Component-based development is a technique where predefined components or functional units, or both, with
specific functionalities are used to assemble the final product.
PowerCenter follows the component-based development methodologies by allowing to build a data flow from a
source to the target, using different components (called transformations) and linking them to each other as required.
Component Based Development Techniques

The advantages of a component-based development model are as listed below:
As the functional units are already built, the developer need not build them from scratch and can instead use them
directly. Apart from making the entire process easier, this reduces the development time as well.
This approach makes bug-fixing easier as well as aid in various maintenance activities, with only the malfunctioned
components needing to be fixed.
Reusability is also another factor that works in the favor of a component-based development model
Component Based Development Techniques

Transformation is the process in ETL where we actually apply the business rules in the data flow
It is here that the data cleansing and formatting activities are actually performed along with data validation, which is
one of its main functionalities
In PowerCenter, transformations are the functional components
In order to meet all kinds of requirements, a wide range of transformations are available within Informatica
The hierarchy goes in this way
» Transformation
» Mapping
» Sessions
» Workflow
Transformation -> Mapping -> Session -> Workflow

Informatica PowerCenter is the premium data integration solution available today
"Database neutral” - will communicate with any database
 Powerful data transformations convert one application’s data to another’s format
