Data Stage Components

Types of DataStage clients:

• DataStage Administrator
• DataStage Designer
• Datastage Manager

DataStage Administrator
Most DataStage configuration tasks are carried out using the DataStage Administrator, a client program provided with DataStage.

DataStage Designer
DataStage Designer is used to create DataStage Jobs that are compiled into executable programs. Design the jobs that extract, integrate, aggregate,load, and transform the data. Create and reuse metadata and job components. Allows you to use familiar graphical point-and-click techniques to develop processes for extracting, cleansing, transforming, I ntegrating and loading
data.

Datastage Manager
Datastage Manager used to store and manage re-usable metadata for the jobs. Also used to import and export components from file-system to Datastage projects. Primary interface to the
DataStage Repository. Custom routines and transforms can also be created in the Manager.

Datastage Director
DataStage Director is the client component that validates, runs, schedules, and monitors jobs run by the DataStage Server. It is the starting point for most of the tasks a DataStage operator needs to do in respect of DataStage jobs.
