Performance Considerations for Siebel Data Quality Universal Connector Using Firstlogic

---

The following recommendations should help you achieve good performance when working with large volumes of data using Firstlogic software.

Make sure you have enough disk space for your SDQConnector directory

Firstlogic creates files under this directory to store the key information of records retrieved from your Siebel database. The size of files varies depending on the number of records in your Account or Contact table. You may need to contact Firstlogic to determine how much disk space is required for your implementation. You can use the Disk Defragment utility to reduce the file fragments so that Firstlogic can perform faster file I/O operations. For more information about using the Disk Defragment utility, contact your company's IT Department.

Modify the mpbreak.cfg and fmin_rul.cfg files

The Account, Contact, and Prospect business components each have a different set of configuration files. You can find these configuration files in the
Siebel/SDQConnector/match/directory. For mpbreak.cfg, you can specify how you want Firstlogic to break data records into smaller groups. Then, Firstlogic compares records among each group but not across the groups. The fmin_rule.cfg file specifies the match rules. For more information about how to change the break group and match rules, you should contact Firstlogic technical support.
