Master Data Sort CompressSelf-service Cloud Reach
• Helps enterprises who are shifting operations and analytics into the cloud, to provide data to these environments and to collocate theDI platformwith them
• For large data sets, reduces I/O size for temp files thus improving run time -benefits both explicit sorts and those that are inserted inspecific operators
• Allows any user to get or share data in or out of the data lake through a simple browser based UI leveraging the scalable DIengine & rich metadata
• Speed-up time to integrate data into your MDMsolution through MDM model exploration and simple drag-and-drop integration from and to any other data source
onData Click…self-service data

• Where data sizes are
larger than allowed
memory, work space
I/O is reduced
• Provides a tremendous
performance lift – up
to 31% in lab testing
• Benefit for explicit andimplicit sorts
onOther data integration additions in v11.3 Data
Integrati
• Native Greenplum Connectivity: use the new Greenplum connector
stages to read from and bulk load data to Greenplum databases, and
import metadata via IMAM
• Engine Performance Improvements
• Standard performance tests showed marked improvement over
v9.1.2 (test run on Linux)
• CPU intensive workload … 10% performance gain
• IO intensive workload … 20% performance gain
