The DataStage engine is on the server. If you have a programming backgroud then on a higher level of understanding, compiler/interpreter is to programming language as DataStage engine is to Datastage. It does a lot more, has all the internal repository tables, can run uv commands on it etc etc etc.

If you know how to code in C/C++ then it should be a piece of cake for your. You just need to code functions. Test it out on command line. Then link it to datastage by creating a parallel routine and providing the object file's path. Search will reveal all.

Its in the database stage. Syntax will be the same as you would use in your favourite sql tool. OPEN command will run only once when the connection to the database opens, before the main sql. You just need to drop index <<index_name>> on <<table_name>> . Search in google for the exact syntax for you...

Well its hard to tell if the error is random. Next time the job aborts try resetting the job to see if you get any "From previous run..." messages. Use generated sql instead of user defined. Thats the best I can give you as of yet.

WAN's will be slower than LAN's. Thats a limitation from your WAN service provider. Can you watch streaming videos without any pause in them?

Two Transformers next to each other. If you want, now you can even split the load in between two transformers. Let both of them take equal load.
