Informatica Power Center performance – Concurrent Workflow Execution

What is concurrent work flow?
A concurrent workflow is a workflow that can run as multiple instances concurrently.
What is workflow instance?
A workflow instance is a representation of a workflow.
How to configure concurrent workflow?

1) Allow concurrent workflows with the same instance name:
Configure one workflow instance to run multiple times concurrently. Each instance has the same source, target, and variables parameters.
Eg: Create a workflow that reads data from a message queue that determines the source data and targets. You can run the instance multiple times concurrently and pass different connection parameters to the workflow instances from the message queue.
2) Configure unique workflow instances to run concurrently:
Define each workflow instance name and configure a workflow parameter file for the instance. You can define different sources, targets, and variables in the parameter file.

Eg: Configure workflow instances to run a workflow with different sources and targets. For example, your organization receives sales data from three divisions. You create a workflow that reads the sales data and writes it to the database. You configure three instances of the workflow. Each instance has a different workflow parameter file that defines which sales file to process. You can run all instances of the workflow concurrently.

How concurrent workflow Works?

A concurrent workflow group’s logical sessions and tasks together, like a sequential workflow, but runs all the tasks at one time.
Advantages of Concurrent workflow?
This can reduce the load times into the warehouse, taking advantage of hardware platforms’ Symmetric Multi-Processing (SMP) architecture.
LOAD SCENARIO:
Source table records count:  150,622,276

CMN_1650 A duplicate row was attempted to be inserted into a dynamic lookup cache Dynamic lookup error.

Scenario: I have 2 ports going through a dynamic lookup, and then to a router. In the router it is a simple case of inserting new target rows (NewRowLookup=1) or rejecting existing rows (NewRowLookup=0). However, when I run the session I'm getting the error: "CMN_1650 A duplicate row was attempted to be inserted into a dynamic lookup cache Dynamic lookup error. The dynamic lookup cache only supports unique condition keys." I thought that I was bringing through duplicate values so I put a distinct on the SQ. There is also a not null filter on both ports. However, whilst investigating the initial error that is logged for a specific pair of values from the source, there is only 1 set of them (no duplicates). The pair exists on the target so surely should just return from the dynamic lookup newrowlookup=0. Is this some kind of persistent data in the cache that is causing this to think that it is duplicate data? I haven't got the persistent cache or...

SQL Transformation with examples

============================================================================================= SQL Transformation with examples   Use : SQL Transformation is a connected transformation used to process SQL queries in the midstream of a pipeline . We can insert, update, delete and retrieve rows from the database at run time using the SQL transformation. Use SQL transformation in script mode to run DDL (data definition language) statements like creating or dropping the tables. The following SQL statements can be used in the SQL transformation. Data Definition Statements (CREATE, ALTER, DROP, TRUNCATE, RENAME) DATA MANIPULATION statements (INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, MERGE) DATA Retrieval Statement (SELECT) DATA Control Language Statements (GRANT, REVOKE) Transaction Control Statements (COMMIT, ROLLBACK) Scenario: Let’s say we want to create a temporary table in mapping while workflow is running for some intermediate calculation. We can use SQL transformat...
