List of taskflows in IICS

ICS provides a list of tasks like linear taskflow, taskflow, parallel tasks, parallel tasks with decision, sequential tasks, sequential tasks with decisions, and single task.

SEQUENTIAL TASK: This task is used to run the different tasks sequentially

OR

A sequential task is used in taskflows to define a series of tasks that need to be executed one after the other in a specific order. The main purpose of a sequential task is to manage and control the flow of tasks in a task flow, ensuring that each task completes before the next one begins. 

PARALLEL TASK: This task is used to run the different tasks parallely.

OR

The parallel task is used in taskflows to execute multiple tasks simultaneously rather than sequentially. It is designed for scenarios where tasks are independent of each other and can run in parallel to optimize processing time.

TASKFLOW TASK: Taskflow is used to automate and manage the flow of tasks in a specific sequence. It helps connect and control multiple tasks to complete a process efficiently.

List of tasks in IICS

IICS provides a list of tasks like mapping task, powercenter tasks, synchronization task, replication task, masking task, dynamic mapping tasks, and data transfer tasks.

MAPPING TASK: This task is similar to the informatica session task

SYNCHRONIZATION TASK: This task is used to synchronize data from source to target.

REPLICATION TASK: This task is used to replicate or copy the data from source to target

DYNAMIC TASK: This task is used when there are multiple sources and targets and we want to run them with a single mapping.

POWER CENTER TASK: This task is used to import Xml files from PowerCenter to IICS

Transformations in IICS

IICS consists of a few transformations that are similar to the Informatica Power Center.
Some of the transformations are Expression, Filter, Joiner, Lookup, Router, Aggregator, Sorter, Stored Procedure (SQL), Rank, Union, Sequence, Normalizer, and Transaction Control.

Below is the list of transformation properties screenshots we use in mappings.
