When will u go for Dynamic Cache and Persistent Cache? Pls explain with an example?..

Answer / harish konda

Dynamic cache is used to update/insert the records into the
cache during the session run. From there we can
update/target table with the NewLookupRow values returned by
lookup.

If you want to use the same lookup cache in other mappings
also then we will go for Persistent Cache.

The difference is for eg, in the first mapping when we use
dynamic cache, when the session ends, the cache gets deleted
automatically. So to use this cache in other mappings also
check give one option "Persistent Cache".

So when we use this option, the cache in the memory gets
Saved even after session ends. From there we can use that in
other mappings.

Answer / rayudu

If the lookup cache doesnt change between mutiple runs and
if we know that the lookup data doesnt change then we will
go for Persistant cache.


If the loopup cache changes between multiple session runs
and to keep the target table and lookup cache synchronized
we will use dynamic lookup cache .

rayudu.

CANNOT USE PARAMETER FILE! Hi all, I am trying to use parameter file for my workflow. This could help me to filter records where CITY = 'Portland' Following is what I have done: **in Designer - create new parameter : $$PARA_FIL, Parameter, String, IsExprVar=TRUE, Initial value = [empty] - Source Qualifier/ Properties/Source Filter: CUSTOMERS.CITY='$$PARA_FIL' **Create Parameter file: C:\Informatica\PowerCenter8.6.0 \server\infa_shared\BWParam\DynamicParamTest.txt $$PARA_FIL='Portland' **Configure workflow to use the parameter file: Edit Workflow/Properties/Parameter Filename: C:\Informatica\PowerCenter8.6.0 \server\infa_shared\BWParam\DynamicParamTest.txt I also configured directory of parameter file for session task. However, I just got this in the session log: [SQ_CUSTOMERS] SQL Query [SELECT CUSTOMERS.CUSTOMER_ID FROM CUSTOMERS WHERE CUSTOMERS.CITY='$$PARA_FIL'] No record has been loaded to target. It seems that the parameter file has not been read. I cannot understand the reason why. Could any of you kindly suggest me anything? Thanks
