The integration services run in an Integration Daemon OMAG Server. Each type of integration service focuses on metadata exchange with a particular type of third party technology.
An integration service provides a specialist API for the integration connectors that it manages along with a context manager implementation that is used to set up the integration connectors inside the integration daemon.
The integration services available today are:
- Catalog Integrator - provides a two-way synchronization for data catalogs.
- Database Integrator - provides metadata extraction from relational databases.
- Files Integrator - collects metadata about files stored in a filesystem or file manager.
- Lineage Integrator - collects metadata about processes, their internal logic and the data assets they work with.
- Organization Integrator - imports details of an organization's structure - such as teams and departments.
- Security Integrator - distributes security properties to access control enforcement points.
More information about the operation of the integration daemon and the integration services within, along with details of how to set up these integration services are located in the Administration Guide.
