This case study describes how you might set up an environment that processes Unicode UTF-8 multibyte data. You might want to configure your environment this way if you need to process data from Western European, Middle Eastern, Asian, or any other language with characters encoded in the UTF-8 character set. This example describes an environment that processes German and Japanese language data.
For this case study, the UTF-8 environment consists of the following elements:
The
CDI-PC Integration Service
on a UNIX machine
The
CDI-PC Client
on Windows systems
The
CDI-PC repository
stored on an Oracle database on UNIX
A source database contains German language data
A source database contains German and Japanese language data
A target database contains German and Japanese language data
A lookup database contains German language data
The data environment must process German and Japanese character data.
