Migrating content into AEM is nobody’s idea if fun. Creating experiences and authoring content in the powerful AEM authoring experience is great, but identifying, classifying and mapping legacy content? Not so much. AEM’s repository structure contributes to this challenge. AEM, being based on the Java Content Repository (JCR) offers a massively more flexible content taxonomy […]

Oracle Data Integration Platform Cloud (DIPC) DIPC is a unified, powerful, data-driven data integration platform on cloud which can accept data in any format from any source system either on premise or on cloud and process that data as per organization needs. With DIPC, you get all the capabilities of most popular E-LT (Extract – Load […]

Following my previous blog post on how to add a new Dimension to a Data Sync task, this post looks at how to add a Fact and perform a lookup on dimensions while loading the target fact table in a data warehouse using Data Sync. To refer to the blog post on adding a Dimension […]

In this and the following post, I will cover the steps entailed in adding dimension and fact tasks in Oracle Data Sync. The latest releases of Data Sync included a few important features such as performing look-ups during an ETL job. So I intend to cover these best practices when adding new dimension and fact […]

Introduction On a daily basis, data growth is expanding at a pace greater than the expansion of the universe itself. It makes our lives better, but it also has the capability of reflecting the vulnerabilities of a person or an organization. Data is like Infinity Gauntlet. If you know how to use it, like Thanos […]

Introduction:   In general, the ETL (Extraction, Transformation and Loading) process is being implemented through ETL tools such as Datastage, Informatica, AbInitio, SSIS, and Talend to load data into the data warehouse. The same process can also be accomplished through programming such as Apache Spark to load the data into the database. Let’s see how it […]

The need exists for the ability to read and extract data from BICS, especially when the ETL strategy involves a Staging approach, as written about in Best Practice to ETL with Data Sync (BICS). But Data Sync does not support the direct data read from BICS. The built-in Oracle (BICS) connection in Data Sync only supports a data write to BICS. […]

Integrating data from non-Oracle source systems with an Oracle prepackage solution is a common practice that requires source to Target integration. While implementing BI Apps/Oracle EHA (Enterprise Healthcare Analytics) with a new source, I used several best practices, which can be leveraged while integrating a new source in an Oracle Warehouse using ODI. As a […]

In my last blog, I presented a brief overview on Informatica Data Quality (IDQ) tools, the significance of Data Profiling and how to use the Analyst tool to profile data. In this second blog, I will introduce a few commonly used Informatica Developer tool Data Transformations. But, Why Data Transformations? Long story short, Data Quality […]
