BENEFITS
PowerExchangefor Integrating Applications and Data
Enables continuous integration

of business events into Netezza,
lowering resource use and
enhancing organizational agility
Todays organizations view their Netezza-based systems as just one aspect of an enterprise-wide
data integration environment, which has resulted in demands for broader access to dataalong
with the high performance and resilience needed to support continuous, trickle-feed integration
strategies. But building Netezza integration solutions from the ground up is a considerable
challenge.
Provides reliable, once-only

delivery with unmatched
resilience to failure via tight
PowerCenter integration and
transactional Netezza access
Supports compliance initiatives
during development and
execution through strict
enforcement of Netezza security
constraints and data encryption
Lowers costs and improves timeto-results by eliminating costly
manual coding and reducing
requirements for Netezza skills
Coding custom integration logic requires Netezza domain expertise, and whenever integration
requirements include access to data managed by packaged applications, passed via messageoriented middleware, or exposed as Web services, additional hard-to-find technical talent will be
neededincreasing cost and risk. As data volumes grow beyond the point where batch windows
can cope, more advanced solutions can be built on triggers, date stamps, or similar techniques
but using these methods is complex and can have unacceptable production impact. Add the
recurring costs needed to maintain this logicas the Netezza database structures change, as the
surrounding applications are enhanced, and as the supporting IT environment evolvesand the
drawbacks of this approach become clear.
PowerExchange for Netezza Performance Server overcomes these obstacles.
It lets PowerCenter directly read and write Netezza without depending on intermediate message
queues or staging tables. Data is delivered with the kind of reliability that can come only with an
integrated platform. Theres no code to develop, so integration interfaces can be developed faster
and more reliably, whether they require access to message-oriented middleware, mainframe,
midrange, or relational databases, service-oriented architecture and Web services, or packaged
applications. One family of products, using one set of skills, accesses them all.
The advantages of PowerExchange dont stop there. Each member of the PowerExchange family
automatically captures relevant metadata from its sources and targets and shares it with the rest
of the Informatica platform. Proposed changes can be assessed rapidly and implemented with
confidence, and the same metadata can help resolve questions of data lineage that often arise in
audit and compliance exercisesone more advantage of the Informatica data integration
platform.
Greater agility. Better results. PowerExchange. For Netezzaand your organization.
PowerExchange for Netezza Key Features and Benefits

Event-driven Data Integration
with the Change Data Capture
(CDC) Option
Business events such as hiring a new
employee or shipping a customer order
dont always wait for nightly windows, and
the PowerExchange family can play a key
role for organizations seeking to propagate
these events into any Netezza-based data
warehouse. Besides its ability to support
rapid development of Netezzaaware
workflows, PowerExchange for Netezza
Performance Server seamlessly integrates
with the rest of the Informatica platform,
allowing sophisticated cleansing and
transformation of data generated by any
PowerExchange-supported source.
For example, the PowerExchange CDC
Option, available for all major transactional
databases, is a high-performance, noninvasive way to detect business events as
soon as they happen, filter them for
relevance, and deliver them to
PowerCenterin the proper sequence and
without drop-outs or duplicates. This raw
event data can be enriched by
PowerCenter with data from other
PowerExchange-supported sources, and
then trickle-fed into Netezza.
Of course, traditional batch loads into

Netezza are also supported when up-tothe-second data is not necessary. This
kind of event-based architecture requires
no code to be developedwhich lowers
costs, reduces risk, and speeds time to
valueand IT infrastructure cost can be
lowered by reducing data volumes and by
performing data transformation away from
production servers and the data
warehouse.
Codeless Development for

Fast, Error-free Data
Integration
PowerExchange for Netezza includes an
interface designed specifically for the
Netezza environment. It allows easy
access to Netezza sources and targets,
and interfaces seamlessly with Informatica
PowerCenter to enable the rapid
development of sophisticated data
integration scenarios. By teaming with
other components of the Informatica
platform, data quality can be enhanced,
complex industry-standard data formats
can be understood and created, and web
services can be accessed and exposed.
PowerExchangethe foundation of
Informaticas powerful data integration
platform.
Automated Capture of
Netezza Metadata
Informatica PowerExchange for Netezza
automatically captures all available
Netezza metadata and delivers it to the
Informatica repository, seamlessly
integrating it with metadata from other
PowerExchange data sources and targets
to support the entire data integration life
cycle. During development this metadata is
used to guide Netezza access and
conversion. As changes occurwhether in
Netezza or in the sources and targets
surrounding itthis metadata helps keep
maintenance costs down by enabling fast,
error-free impact assessment that is
unavailable with hand-coded integration
techniques.

access to Netezza.
