Native database drivers or ODBC
The PowerCenter Integration Service on Windows and UNIX can use ODBC drivers to connect to databases. You can use native drivers to improve performance.
The PowerCenter Integration Service includes ODBC libraries that you can use to connect to other ODBC sources. The Informatica installation includes ODBC drivers.
For flat file, XML, or COBOL sources, you can either access data with network connections, such as NFS, or transfer data to the PowerCenter Integration Service node through FTP software. For information about connectivity software for other ODBC sources, refer to your database documentation.
