摘要:
Bulk data is read or written by an application on a first computer system to a file on a second heterogeneous computer system. Alternatively it is read or written as bulk data directly between applications on these heterogeneous systems. Jobs or tasks are started from one system to execute on a second heterogeneous system. Results are then returned to the first system. Checkpointing and later restarting is also initiated from a first system for execution on the second heterogeneous system.

摘要:
An Application Programming Interface (API) provides interoperability between different monitoring and administrative components of a data warehouse system that utilizes different standard protocols. One of the protocols is the well known data connectivity protocol, Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) that defines a standard interface between applications and data sources. A second one of the protocols is the well known network management protocol, Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) that defines a standard interface between an agent component and a network management system. The API provides a facility that enables the different components to access user and connection information maintained by an ODBC server component derived from servicing client system application SQL queries made by system users.
摘要:
A method and system for facilitating the creation of warehouse requests in a data warehouse system. During the design of the data warehouse tables, a repository tool is used for storing a number of new objects such as source and target databases, source and target tables and warehouse requests that are graphically defined and linked together by an administrator with the repository tool. The resulting visual design is so drawn so as to serve as input for each warehouse request to be generated. The administrator invokes a data replication component that operatively couples to the repository tool signaling that the warehouse request is to be implemented. The data replication component automatically creates the different subcomponents of the request by accessing various links stored by the repository tool and displays a visual representation of the subcomponents and their relationships to each other to the administrator. Thereafter, the replication component provides access to menu screens for enabling the administrator to visualize each of the subcomponents of the request and their properties for enabling modifications to be made to such subcomponents for completing configuration of all request subcomponents. Subsequently, the warehouse request can be scheduled to execute and populate the warehouse tables.
