For publications that use an automatic mapping with a pass-through file source,
Data Integration Hub
published the files without processing them and stores them on a file publication repository. For example, unstructured files such as PDF or .zip files.
You can use file transfer to publish flat files from applications that reside outside the
Data Integration Hub
network.
When you use file transfer, you can select whether or not
Data Integration Hub
deletes the files from the remote server after it reads them.
You cannot publish pass-through files from Hadoop Distributed File Systems (HDFS).
