We get called quite a bit to do training. Many clients have internal resources that have come and gone and to get everyone on the same page, they hire us to do customized training.
This client is a distributor and retailer of fashion, luxury, and sports eyewear.
Client Challenge
Our client had DataStage TX software already installed but resources were not familiar with all that the software could do.
Our Solution
We developed a customized training program based on requirements from the client. We provided a combination of classroom and side-by-side training to 3-5 resources. The training included materials that the client could use for reference after the course. All of the exercises covered analysis, mapping, testing, and implementation in real-life integration scenarios as defined by the client.
Basic instruction on the use of the DataStage TX Design Studio components used to define business processes and transform data for use on one system to another.
Training on the following topics:
- Defining data structures
- Defining data properties
- Defining data components
- Validating data definition
- Building in additional validation
- More about mapping
- Functional maps
- Functional map wizard
- More efficient type definitions
- Error handling
- Map optimization
- Map execution
- Text file importer
Training on the concepts and techniques necessary to optimize and improve the performance of maps and solve complex transformation problems included the following topics:
- Art of the type tree
- Art of the mapping rule
- Using router maps
- Using Internet and utility adapters
- Optimizing performances
- Creating custom reports from the audit log
The Results
Not including preparation time, the training was delivered in one week with follow-up consultations via phone for a few weeks after delivery.
The training was delivered successfully and REMEDI was invited back in to assist with some highly complex 837 maps after the training engagement.
