ActiveBatch®Extension - Informatica PowerCenter

The ActiveBatch® Extension for Informatica PowerCenter automates and integrates PowerCenter® business processes for improved efficiency and control. PowerCenter users require more advanced automation capabilities than are currently included within PowerCenter to create, manage and control both single and compound workloads that can include processes from other applications and data sources. Using the pre-packaged Job Steps within ActiveBatch, Informatica PowerCenter users can create multi-step workflows for each of your Business and IT processes within a unified framework, faster, easier, and more reliably while achieving a lower cost of operations.

ActiveBatch's powerful core scheduling capabilities include constraints, event triggers, monitoring, alerting, audits and much more for the development of powerful and reliable workloads. As an example you can schedule ETL processes based on dynamic event triggers to save time over the static use of traditional date & time schedules. Monitoring PowerCenter workloads for "stalled" processes is simple and ActiveBatch will allow you to automatically restart the workload, alert you as to issues as well as take alternative actions.

With ActiveBatch you can:

• Make Informatica PowerCenter ETL automation simpler, faster, and more reliable
• Manage and control large amounts of data across different IT systems to ensure the on-time delivery of important reports
• Easily automate and integrate Data Warehousing and Business Intelligence Processes within end to end workflows
• Monitor, Action and Alert on PowerCenter and other workflows to improve service levels
