Create and Configure the PowerCenter Repository Service
The PowerCenter Repository Service is an application service that manages the PowerCenter repository. The PowerCenter repository stores metadata created by the PowerCenter Client and application services in a relational database.
When you access a PowerCenter repository object from the PowerCenter Client or the PowerCenter Integration Service, the client or service sends a request to the PowerCenter Repository Service. The PowerCenter Repository Service process fetches, inserts, and updates metadata in the PowerCenter repository database tables.
