I am a beginner to use talend etl I would make a request to select a database oracle then make a change _ S and insert it into a mysql table I'm stuck. I have not found how to make select queries with talend not know how I started that can help me please
To make a select on Oracle schema you need a tOracleInput component instance. You need to specify a Oracle connection (either a builtin connection or a repository-registered connection) and the output schema (the columns you need).
Then, click on "Guess query" to build the select SQL code accordingly to your desired output schema. You can then modify the automatically generated SQL code to fit your needs (ie. add WHERE or SORT clauses). Don't forget that output schema and selected columns must be the same (ie if you add a SQL-generated column inside the select clause you must add in your output schema, too). Any valid SELECT syntax can be used here (including subselects, cursors, window over partition and even more weird oracle stuff).
After the input instance, add a tMap where you make all your data manipulations. Finally, close with a tMySqlOutput, specifing connection and output table details. The flow will trivially looks like:
tOracleInput ----> tMap ----> tMySqlOutput
Create the connection Mysql and Oracle in Metadata Objects (Db Connections).
Create the following objects (tMySqlConnection - TOracleConnection)
Configure the objects with the parameters connections (Property Type: Repository).
Extract data: You can select the table with the object tOracleInput.
Edit schema of the table in the submenu Component
Create object TMAP, (transform the data)
Create object tMysqlOutPut and configure the schema and columns to insert.
Create object tMysqlCommit and close the connection.
Listo! ¡¡Run to job!! :)

I'm currently trying to create txt files from all tables in the dbo schema
I have like 200s-300s tables there, so it would takes up too much times to create it manually..
I was thinking for creating a loop.
so as example (using AdventureWorks2019) :
select t.name as table_name
from sys.tables t
where schema_name(t.schema_id) = 'Person'
order by table_name;
This would get all the table name within the Person schema.
So I would loop :
Table input : select * from ${table_name}
But then i realized that for txt files, i need to declare all the field and their data types in pentaho, so it would become a problems.
Any ideas how to do this "backup" txt files?
Using Metadata Injection and more queries to the schema catalog tables in SQL Server. You not only need to retrieve the table name, you would need to afterwards retrieve the columns in that table and the data types, and inject that information (metadata) to the text output step.
You have in the samples directory of your spoon installation an example on how to use Metadata Injection, use it, along with the documentation, to build a simple example (the check to generate a transformation with the metadata you have injected is of great use to debug)
I have something similar to copy data from one database to another, both in Oracle, but with SQL Server you have similar catalog tables as in Oracle to retrieve the information you need. I created a simple, almost empty transformation to read one table and write to another. This transformation has almost no information, only the database origin in the Table Input step and the target database in the Table Output step:
And then I have a second transformation where I fill up all the information (metadata) to inject: The query to perform in the Table Input step, and all the data I need in the Table Output: Target table, if I need to truncate before inserting, the columns from (stream field) and to (Table field):
Background: I am really new. Informatica Developer for PowerCenter Express Version: 9.6.1 HotFix 2
I want to execute a t-sql statement as one step in a work flow:
truncate table dbo.stage_customer
I tried create a mapping, add a sql transformation on it. Input above query in sql query window. I added the mapping to a workflow of just start, the mapping, and the end. When I validate the flow I got this error:
The group [Input] in transformation xxx must have at least one port
I have no idea what ports are needed since this (the truncate statement) basically doesn't need input or output.
Use your query " truncate table dbo.stage_customer" in Pre-SQL command
As Aswin suggested use the built in option in the session property.
But in the production environments user may not have truncate table access for the table in a database. In this case, informatica workflow will fail if you check the truncate target table option. It is good to have a stored procedure to truncate the target table and use that stored procedure in informatica mapping to avoid workflow failures in case of user having no truncate access to the database.
if you would like to truncate a target table before loading why don't you use the in-built option present in session properties?
goto workflow manager-> open session->mapping tab->click on target table listed left side->choose the property "Truncate table option" just enable it
to answer you question, I think you have to connect at least one input and output port into SQL transformation (because it is not unconnected). Just create dummy ports and try again

I have a question: I have a table (say tableA) in a database (say dbA) and I need to mirror tableA as another table (say tableB) in another database (say dbB).
I know this can be done via (materialised) view or via informatica. But by problem is that I need to sync DDL as well. For example if a column is added in tableA, the column should automatically reflect in tableB.
Can this be done anyway directly via oracle or Informatica.
(or I will have to write a procedure to sync table on basis of all_tab_cols).
Yes, you could:
create another database as a logical standby database with Data Guard
use Oracle Streams
I would use (2) if you just need a single table in the other database or (1) if you need an entire schema (or more).
I want to create a table (lets say table_copy) which has same columns as other table (lets call it table_original) in Oracle database, so the query will be like this :
create table table_copy as (select * from table_original where 1=0);
This will create a table, but the constraints of table_original are not copied to table_copy, so what should be done in this case?
Only NOT NULL constraints are copied using Create Table As Syntax (CTAS). Others should be created manually.
You might however query data dictionary view to see the definitions of constraints and implement them on your new table using PL/SQL.
The other tool that might be helpful is Oracle Data Pump. You could import the table using REMAP_TABLE option specifying the name for the new table.
Use a database tool to extract the DDL needed for the constraints (SQL Developer does the job). Edit the resulting script to match the name of the new class.
Execute the script.
If you need to do this programmatically you can use a statement like this:
DBMS_METADATA.GET_DDL('TABLE','PERSON') from DUAL;
I would like to know how I can get the metadata of an object in a Vertica database; like metadata of a table. Is there any table that stores the metadata of objects (functions, views, tables) in Vertica Database.
For example in Oracle, I could type the following and get a detailed description of tables or see the code of a procedure.
oracle :> desc table_name;
or
oracle :> edit proc_name;
I know that I can see the tables from my schemas with \dt command, but is there any way I can see the DDL statements that created the objects?
Thanks, but this is not what I want. I was looking for is the export_objects() function:
select export_objects('','object_name')
This way you will get the creation script for the object.
\d table-name should get you what you need.
Extra tip: If you specify only the schema, you will get all of the objects inside that schema. Sure beats having to enter a loop where you run export_objects() for every object.
