Test Data Warehouse Architecture

Test Data Warehouse Architecture

The test data warehouse architecture consists of tools, services, and databases.
The following image shows the architecture components for the test data warehouse:
The test data warehouse architecture diagram shows the tools, services, and database components of the test data warehouse.
When you run a plan to create a data set, the Test Data Warehouse Service stores the project and source table metadata in the test data warehouse repository. The service creates the tables in the test data warehouse. The PowerCenter Integration Service then moves the data into the tables in the test data warehouse.
The following table describes the architecture components:
