Integrator provides four components to load and maintain data in a
data domain:
Bulk Add/Replace,
Merge Records,
Modify Records, and
Delete Records.
Before
populating the data domain, you may want to configure it. See
Configuring Data Domains.
The following graphic illustrates data loading and maintenance tasks and
the Integrator component you should use for each:
- Use the
Bulk Add/Replace Records component to load new
records into a data domain, or to replace existing records.
- Use the
Merge Records component to:
- Add new records to a
data domain
- Add new assignments to
existing records in a data domain
Note that this component can only operate on one Endeca record per
input record; in other words, new assignments can only be added to one Endeca
record per input record.
- Use the
Modify Records component to:
- Add new assignments to
records
- Replace the values in
assignments of records with new values
- Delete assignments from
records
This component can modify multiple Endeca records per input record.
In other words, multiple records can be deleted
- Use the
Delete Records component to delete specific
records from a data domain.
