DI Job Server is like Informatica Integration Service which is associated with its corresponding Informatica metadata Repository that holds the transformation rules to move data from source to target. Note that each Repository is associated with one or more DI Job Servers. Image: BODS Job Server 4. DI Access Server - This is used for DI Real-time service jobs. This Server controls the XML message passing between the source and target nodes in Real-Time jobs. The Windows Services Name- Business Objects Data Services. Service Names1. al_Designer 2. al_jobserver 3. al_jobservice Image: BODS Windows Services Image: BODS Services
Image: BODS Management Console Administrator II. Auto Documentation : View, analyze and print graphical representations of all objects as depicted in DI Designer, including their relationships, properties and more. See the below image, Image: BODS Management Console Auto Documentation
III. Data Validation: Evaluate the reliability of the target data based on the validation rules created in the Batch Jobs in order to quickly review, assess and identify potential inconsistencies or errors in source data. IV. Impact and Lineage Analysis: Analyze end-to end impact and lineage for DI tables and columns, and BO objects such as universes, business views and reports. Image: BODS Management Console Impact and Lineage Analysis V. Operational Dashboard : View dashboards of DI execution statistics to see at a glance the status and performance of the Job execution for one or more repositories over a given time period.

1. Repository Manager : Ceate, Upgrade and Check the versions of Local, Central and Profiler repositories.
2. Server manager: Add, Delete or Edit the properties of Job Servers. It is automatically installed on each computer on which we install a Job Server. The Server Manager defines the links between Job Servers and Repository. We can link multiple Job Servers on different machines to a single repository (for load balancing) or each Job Server to multiple Repositories (with one default) to support individual repositories e.g. Test Environment, Production Environment.
Every Object is either Re-Usable or Single-Use . The only Single-Use Object in BODI is the Project.We cannot copy single-use objects. Most objects created in DI are available for re-use. Re-usable objects are globally accessible.
BODI Project
A Project is the highest-level object in Designer. A Project is a single-use objects that allows us to group and organize Jobs in Designer. Only one project can be open and visible in the Project Area at a time. It is same like a Folders in PowerCenter Informatica.
BODI Jobs
Jobs are composed of work flows and/or data flows. A job is the smallest unit of work that can Schedule independently for Execution. Jobs must be associated with a Project before they can be Executed in the Project Area of DI Designer. It is same like Workflows in Informatica.
BODI Transforms
Transforms are the in built transformation objects available in DI for transforming source data as per business rules. e.g. Case, Merge. It is similiar to Transformations in Informatica. A good number of transformation sets are available in DI including some Data quality transformations also. A list of the transformations available at a glance. Image: BODS Transformations
BODI Script
A Script is a single-use object that is used to call functions and assign values in a workflow. To apply decision-making and branch logic to work flows DI scripting language is used. Image: BODS Objects Hierarchy
