Answer / ashish
In addition to the Aruna's answer,Integration service require native datatypes and SQ convert the port in to native datatypes to make the data compatible with Integration service.
for Eg. In source table if a column's datatype is "Varchar2" then source qualifier will convert it in "String" type.

No. Source qualifier is required to make the data compatible with Informatica. It basically qualifies the data to a language which informatica can understand.
