Connection Compatibility

Connection Compatibility

Connections are pushdown compatible if they connect to databases on the same database management system and the Integration Service can identify the database tables that the connections access.
The following transformations can have multiple connections:
  • Joiner.
    The Joiner transformation can join data from multiple source connections.
  • Union.
    The Union transformation can merge data from multiple source connections.
  • Lookup.
    The connection for the Lookup transformation can differ from the source connection.
  • Target.
    The target connection can differ from the source connection.
Each connection object is pushdown compatible with itself. If you configure a session to use the same connection object for the source and target connections, the Integration Service can push the transformation logic to the source or target database.
Some relational connections are pushdown compatible if they are of the same database type, have the same database user name and password, and have certain identical properties.
The following table lists the connection properties that must be identical for each database type:

The Integration Service performs a case-sensitive string comparison to verify that connection properties are identical.
Netezza databases in the same relational database management system are pushdown incompatible. A Netezza database is only pushdown compatible with itself.
If the connection properties in Pushdown Compatibility for connections of the same database type are identical, but the database user names and passwords differ, you might still be able to make the connections pushdown compatible.
