Please let me know how we can implement the below scenario.
In a single mapping,more than 500 sources
(legacy,VSAM,relational) will be loading into only one
target. Whenever I retreive the data(any record) from
target, i need to find the details that the record belongs
to which source.

Thanks in advance..

Answer / bidhar

Here i am assuming that your single warehouse table has
data from more than one source,and you need to distinguish
the data among the sources.

For this to accomplish you can have table which can have 2
columns Datasourcename and ID.This table will have all the
source list and ID column will be the surrogate key.

Now you need to alter your warehouse table by adding a new
column called Source Identifier.

Now you have the architecture ready.

When loading your warehouse table just look up the first
table for the source name and pickup the corresponding
surrogate key and populate into the Source identifier
column in the warehouse table.Use this Column(Source
Identifier)to identify the sources.

Hi ,

After every Source qualifier transformation just keep an
Expression with flag.
Dont go Single Source qualifier trans.
Keep 1 source qualifier trans for one table.

Answer / arnab

create a system where you can identify a source with an
ID.you may call it as datasource_num_id , build a cross
reference table to store all tis information , in the map
you can use this cross reference table to get the ID and
populate this id in ur target table

Answer / vdiwade

Yes its possible through above logic…In addition to Srinu
idea....you can understand very easy way. Suppose creare one
(specific src) insert script.. means for 500 sources,500
insert script,which loads data into one src/tgt…we can add
one more column source_name tht will be always coming
source_name..so at the time of retrieving we can easily
understand this records belongs which source/tgt tbl.
