Every week, you receive customer data from different departments that you need to join and aggregate. The departments might periodically change the source schema to include additional columns for departmental analysis. To accommodate the changes to the data source, you create a dynamic mapping. You configure the Read transformation to get data object columns at read time. Create an input rule to include columns that you need and to exclude all other columns.

When your organization wants to manage frequent metadata changes in the streaming data sources, develop a dynamic streaming mapping that can get the metadata changes directly from the data sources at run time.

Technical preview functionality is supported for evaluation purposes but is unwarranted and is not production-ready. Informatica recommends that you use in non-production environments only. Informatica intends to include the preview functionality in an upcoming release for production use, but might choose not to in accordance with changing market or technical circumstances.
