Informatica 9.6.x and Oracle Data Integrator: ETL/ELT Development

The WebLearning Informatica 9.6.x and Oracle Data Integrator: Data Integration and ELT/ETL Development Course provides hands-on step-by-step instructions on how to perform a variety of Data Integration and ETL Transformation tasks using Informatica and Oracle Data Integrator in an Oracle Database environment for activities based on real-life work scenarios. This course combines the WebLearning Oracle Data Integrator 11g: ELT/ETL Development and the WebLearning Informatica ETL Development courses.

Using the ODI graphical interfaces, you create and manage ODI repositories, which stores configuration information about the IT infrastructure, the metadata for all applications, projects, models and other ODI artifacts. You also learn how to create the ODI Topology, organize ODI models and design ODI interfaces, procedures, packages and other objects.

Using the Informatica ETL Tools, Informatica PowerCenter developers and administrators will learn about the Informatica 9.x architecture, introduce you to working with the PowerCenter Designer, Workflow Manager, and Workflow Monitor tools, performing tasks such as creating transformations, mappings, reusable objects, sessions and workflows to extract, transform and load data.

You will develop cleansing, formatting, sorting and aggregating procedures. You can learn how to use routers, update strategies, parameters /variables and overrides. This course will cover many different types of lookups, such as cached, persistent, dynamic and multiple row returns. Workflow tasks will be created to define a set of instructions for executing the ETL.

You will learn how to use Oracle Data Integrator Topology Manager to define context and logical schema objects according to current best practices. You will learn how to use manage projects in Oracle Data Integrator to develop interfaces and other objects.

On successful Completion of this course you will be able to:
