Informatica Domain

Informatica Domain

The Informatica domain is a server component that hosts application services, such as the
Model Repository Service, cluster configuration for an existing configuration, cloud provisioning configuration for an autodeployed configuration,
and
Data Integration Service
. These services, together with domain clients, enable you to create and run mappings and other objects to extract, transform, and write data.

Application Services

The Informatica domain includes the following application services:
Model Repository Service
Manages the Model repository. The Model repository stores metadata created by Informatica products in a relational database to enable collaboration among the products. Informatica Developer, the Data Integration Service, and the Administrator tool store metadata in the Model repository.
Data Integration Service
Performs data integration tasks for the Developer tool and for external clients.
Metadata Access Service
Allows the Developer tool to access Hadoop connection information to import and preview metadata. The Metadata Access Service contains information about the Service Principal Name (SPN) and keytab information if the Hadoop cluster uses Kerberos authentication.

Domain Repositories

Informatica repositories, hosted on Microsoft SQL Server databases, store metadata about domain objects. The Informatica domain includes the following repositories:
Domain configuration repository
The domain configuration repository stores configuration metadata about the Informatica domain. It also stores user privileges and permissions.
Model repository
Stores metadata for projects and folders and their contents, including all repository objects such as mappings and workflows. For more information, see the Model Repository Service documentation.

Application Service Databases

The Informatica domain and the application services use a series of databases to store information. You must set up the databases with the database names and user names that the domain and the services expect.
To read a list of the database names and user names that you must apply to the databases, see Database Account and User Details.
