Compiled Mappings in Informatica Platform 10.x Resources

Compiled Mappings in Informatica Platform 10.x Resources

Metadata Manager extracts the compiled version of mappings from Informatica Platform 10.x applications. In the compiled version of a mapping, the mapplets, logical data objects, and parameters in the mapping are expanded. Therefore, the mappings and logical data objects included in the mapping appear in the mapping itself.
The compiled version of a mapping might differ from the corresponding mapping in the Developer tool.
For example, a Developer tool user creates the Customer logical data object. The following logical data object mapping populates the Customer logical data object:
The logical data object mapping shows two sources, an Expression transformation, a Union transformation, and the Customer logical data object as the mapping output.
The Developer tool user uses the Customer logical data object as a source in mapping m_Customer.
The following image shows mapping m_Customer in the Developer tool:
The Developer tool mapping shows the Customer logical data object as the read object, a Filter transformation, and a Write transformation.
If you create an Informatica Platform 10.x resource that includes mapping m_Customer, Metadata Manger extracts the compiled version of the mapping. The compiled version of the mapping includes the transformations in the logical data object mapping in addition to the transformations in mapping m_Customer.
The following image shows mapping m_Customer in the data lineage diagram:
In Metadata Manager, the compiled mapping shows the two Read transformations, the Expression transformation, the Union transformation, an Expression transformation that represents the Customer logical data object, the Filter transformation, and the Write transformation.
