Documentation
Definition
A DataSource is an object for retrieving data. The DataSource is localized in the OLTP system.
It has
- an extract structure,
- an extraction type, and
- an extraction method.
The extract structure describes the fields of the internal table that contain the extracted data. The extraction type describes which type of extractor the DataSource uses. The extraction method extracts the data and transfers it into an internal table with the same type as the extract structure.
The DataSource also contains information on the type of data that it stages, for example, attributes, transactional data, hierachies, or texts. It can also support different types of data update.
