There will be lots to learn and play with. Among the Stages to review are: ...new Connector, which can take multiple input links (so that multiple INSERTs (etc) to different tables can be in the same unit of work. ...end of wave...so that you can control what the transaction boundary is. This is sim...

Everything points to DataStage in your current release except the "200meg and larger" xml documents. DataStage does an excellent job of "shredding" xml documents into their relational counterparts. Most often, the tabular extraction and "dynamic normalization" of the hi...

Ah ....a long discussion that will probably take this thread into many pages. Suffice to say that they are useful for specific things, especially those that need to take up very little resources (one or just a few processes) and are focused (especially prior to 8.5) on single row activities....makin...

Really no easy way to do this in EE prior to 8.5 (where we have the end-of-wave and the ability to do multiple input links to a single Connector). Best advice is to re-write it as a Server Job. Provided that all the tables are in a single database, set up your logic so that it ultimately goes thru o...

Also....what is your request rate?

and is this unit of work "per incoming request" or "for the whole day" of the service being running (or other unit of time), etc.?

Is it an "always on" service with ISDinput Stage? (or a batch job invoked by an incoming service request [both kinds of jobs can be enabled for ISD]) ?

What release? 8.1? 8.5?

Do you have Server also?

Short of running an external script to apply your xslt, Maybe the "brute force" method is appropriate.......meaning....html is just "tags" (xml and html have the same ancestral heritage).....you can certainly use the xml stages (new or old) to build a tag structure that uses comm...

Over 11 years plus people have been doing this........many who monitor this forum too, no doubt..... ;) I have written many reporting solutions off of .dsx and .xml exports, but haven't been directly involved in reverse engineering efforts. I suspect that most efforts to do such are proprietary, sin...

Reverse engineering, mass editing, and reporting techniques against DataStage exports (.dsx and .xml) have been going on since release 1. "Minor" and "Major" are entirely debatable, as Craig notes. I've seen subtle changes to things like the release number at the top, through who...

It's been too long since I've looked at this issue in a release 7 environment to remember......but the release 8 MQ Connector, if you have access to release 8 or are making plans for it, provides specific support for these types of messages.

Only an Outlook administrator expert will know. Perhaps they have forums like this one.

Tell us more... There isn't enough information to make any kind of conclusion..... let us know things like: a) how big are the INDIVIDUAL xml documents. The size of a SINGLE document is the key here. b) What "exactly" are you doing with them? Reading, transforming and loading into a data w...

Just to be sure...eliminate Oracle from the picture. Simplest is to just write a quick test Server Job using Folder to send the xml to your xmlInput Stage. See if it gets the same error as your Oracle-to-XML EE Job. Ernie ...if you haven't used Server Jobs for XML, create a Server job that has Folde...

I am not a stylesheet expert, but I've seen people write some pretty sophisticated ones. It sounds like you have some dynamically created structures, but in the end, there are "8" varieties? Again, I have no idea about the email tooling you are trying to support, and am not an expert on st...
