What is new to version 5?
A lot. You can now design your dataflow anyway you wish with multiple
sources, destinations and any number of mappings in between. We've also
added tons of record set transformations and placed a greater emphasis on data
quality. Too much to list here. You can find a more detailed
description of the product here.
Can I combine data from multiple sources? Insert into multiple destinations?
Yes. By using the Join Transformation, the Merge Transformation, or the
Union Transformation, you can combine data coming from different sources and
then map out from that Join. To write into multiple
destinations, just map to each destination as you would into a single
destination. To selectively map into destinations, you the Router
Transformation before the destinations. You can find more about it
here.
