The Data Integration Process Generator
If it has a pattern, why not automatize?
DIPGen is a generic metadata driven tool that generates fully functional Informatica Powercenter ETL processes:
- DIPGen generates Informatica Powercenter ETL-processes (mappings, sessions, workflows).
- DIPGen returns fully functional results: the resulting workflows are automatically imported into the desired Informatica environment, and are ready to be started.
- DIPGen is offering versioning (git-based) and deployment features.
- DIPGen can also generate BMC ControlM batch jobs for your Informatica Powercenter Workflows.
- DIPGEN has its own METADATA-repository. All METADATA from the generated ETL processes are traceable for audit purposes. Thus, a permanently evolving and growing data warehouse can be monitored through its entire lifecycle.
Further technical characteristics:
- DIPGen uses the Informatica Powercenter SDK-API approach (and not the XML-Template approach). This has numerous advantages, such as the direct connectivity to the Informatica Powercenter repository, allowing importing and exporting Informatica objects, as well as – the most important aspect – loading Informatica Powercenter objects into DIPGen at runtime, easily transforming them as per the customer’s requirements, and manual errors in the XML-template.
- DIPGen supports the generation of Informatica Powercenter workflows of all types of Informatica sources and targets, including Informatica PowerExchange (CDC) objects.
