Introduction to the Endeca ITL

The Endeca Information Transformation Layer (ITL) reads in your source data and manipulates it into a set of indices for the Endeca MDEX Engine. The Endeca ITL consists of the Content Acquisition System and the Data Foundry.

Although the original source data is not changed, this transformation process may change its representation within your Endeca implementation. The Endeca ITL is an off-line process that you run on your data at intervals that are appropriate for your business requirements.
