Answer / eswar
When using incremental aggregation, you apply captured
changes in the source to aggregate calculations in a
session. If the source changes only incrementally and you
can capture changes, you can configure the session to
process only those changes. This allows the Informatica
Server to update your target incrementally, rather than
forcing it to process the entire source and recalculate the
same calculations each time you run the session.

Gradually to synchronize the target data with source data,
there are further 2 techniques:-
Refresh load - Where the existing data is truncated and
reloaded completely.
Incremental - Where delta or difference between target and
source data is dumped at regular intervals. Timsetamp for
previous delta load has to be maintained.

Incremental aggregation is a technique by which we can
capture the aggregated data incrementally.
for this we have to sort the data before sending it to
aggregator then we have to enable the property incremental
aggregation in the workflow level inside the session.

Incremental Aggregation ->
Incremental Aggregation is a technique to populate data on your aggregated tables or materialized view incrementally.
It takes new incoming data only based upon last updated column value or created_date time stamp column and thus uses its own cache created/updated earlier and updated the table as required.

Answer / raghvendra
incremental aggregation performs aggregation on incremented
data..so based on requirements if we can use incremental
aggregation then definately it will improve performance..so
while develop mapping always keep in mind this factor too...

How can you increase the performance in joiner transformation?
There are 4 source files which contains same metadata create target that should display the file name along with record please send answer with mapping
Please create a mapping where I have source which has one column with name like Aman_Gupta Rakesh_Mehra Sachin_More I want the target field should contain the name in reverse order i.e Gupta_Aman Mehra_Rakesh More_Sachin. Can you please tell me what transformation would be needed to do this.
