Data Stage Transformer Usage Guidelines. The parallel Transformer stage generates “C” code which is then compiled to a parallel component.

Data Stage Transformer Usage Guidelines

For this reason, it is important to minimize the number of transformers, and to use other stages (Copy, Filter, Switch, etc) when derivations are not needed. The Copy stage should be used of a Transformer for simple operations including: Renaming Columns Dropping Columns Default Type Conversions use the “BASIC Transformer” stage in large-volume job flows. Consider, if possible, implementing complex derivation expressions using regular patterns by Lookup tables instead of using a Transformer with nested derivations. For example, the derivation expression: If A=0,1,2,3 Then B=”X” If A=4,5,6,7 Then B=”C” Could be implemented with a lookup table containing values for column A and corresponding values of column B.

Using Configuration Files in Data Stage Best Practices & Performance Tuning. The tells DataStage Enterprise Edition how to exploit underlying system resources (processing, temporary storage, and dataset storage).

Using Configuration Files in Data Stage Best Practices & Performance Tuning

In more advanced environments, the configuration file can also define other resources such as databases and buffer storage. At runtime, EE first reads the configuration file to determine what system resources are allocated to it, and then distributes the job flow across these resources. When you modify the system, by adding or removing nodes or disks, you must modify the DataStage EE configuration file accordingly. Since EE reads the configuration file every time it runs a job, it automatically scales the application to fit the system without having to alter the job design. There is not necessarily one ideal configuration file for a given system because of the high variability between the way different jobs work.

Hi Folks, I have one requirement like below. DataStage tip: using job parameters without losing your mind. A job parameter in the ETL environment is much like a parameter in other products, it lets you change the way your programs behave at run-time by tweaking or changing parameters to alter the way the job behaves.

DataStage tip: using job parameters without losing your mind

This constant changing can either ease your support burden or drive your support staff mad. In this blog we will be looking at project specific environment variables and how they become happy job parameters. This is also my first blog with diagrams to show steps. This is a happy parameter method because an administrator or support person can modify the value of a parameter, such as a database password, and every job in production will run with the new value. Yippee! If you have trouble with the pictures below you can read the alternative text (which isn't nearly as good) or go straight to the photo album. Tooling Around in the IBM InfoSphere.

Datastage Tips. Top 50 Datastage Interview Questions. Datastage. DataStage. 14 Good design tips in Datastage. 1) When you need to run the same sequence of jobs again and again, better create a sequencer with all the jobs that you need to run.

14 Good design tips in Datastage

Running this sequencer will run all the jobs. You can provide the sequence as per your requirement. 2) If you are using a copy or a filter stage either immediately after or immediately before a transformer stage, you are reducing the efficiency by using more stages because a transformer does the job of both copy stage as well as a filter stage 3) Use Sort stages instead of Remove duplicate stages. Sort stage has got more grouping options and sort indicator options. 4) Turn off Runtime Column propagation wherever it’s not required. 5) Make use of Modify, Filter, and Aggregation, Col.
