Workflow Connections

Workflow Connections

Workflows contain connections to the
Integration Service
, the TDM repository, and one or more connection objects.
An offline job requires three connections to the TDM repository. When you run a plan with multiple workflows, each workflow requires one connection. You can run a maximum of eight workflows at a time. When you run eight workflows, you need 11 connections. Additional workflows move into the queued state.
Each workflow can use different connections to relational sources and paths to flat files. Choose the connections in the plan.
When you create a plan, you can select the following connections:
  • Source. The connection that is used to connect to the source.
  • Target. The connection that is used to connect to the target.
  • Staging connection. A connection to a database for staging data. The default connection entered in the Preferences view appears. You can change the connection for a plan.
  • Lookup connection. A connection to a database that contains lookup tables.
  • Storage connection. A connection to a database that contains storage tables. The default connection entered in the Preferences view appears. You can change the connection for a plan.
  • Teradata connection. An ODBC connection to a Teradata database.
  • Dictionary connection. A connection to a database that contains a dictionary table for substitution, email masking, and data generation.
