PowerExchange Condense - Service Class Criteria

PowerExchange Condense - Service Class Criteria

PowerExchange Condense is an optional component that reads change data from PowerExchange Logger log files and writes the data to condense files. If multiple changes have been made to the same record, PowerExchange Condense reduces the volume of the change data by storing only the oldest before image and the latest after image of that record. PowerExchange Condense also re-sequences the change records into the transaction commit order and eliminates any change records that were rolled back.
When determining the WLM service class to assign to PowerExchange Condense, consider the PowerExchange Condense resource usage characteristics and performance requirements.
  • PowerExchange Condense has the following resource usage characteristics:
    • CPU usage is moderate.
    • CPU usage depends on the volume of log data that PowerExchange Condense extracts from the PowerExchange Logger log files.
    • I/O rates vary, depending on the volume of change data that PowerExchange Condense extracts from the PowerExchange Logger log files.
    • Virtual memory usage depends on the number of capture registrations.
  • Because PowerExchange Condense runs asynchronously, you can assign the PowerExchange Condense started task or job to a service class that is used by batch jobs.
