Informatica PowerCenter Automation SDK 1.0.0 Released!

I am proud to announce the release of Informatica PowerCenter Automation SDK; brought to you by the good people at Orange Mile, Inc.

The library allows the automation of repetitive patterns when creating or changing Informatica PowerCenter Mappings.

With the proliferation of development abstraction platforms like Informatica Power Center, Tibco Business Works, BPM, rule engines, etc... it becomes more and more possible to build automation software to automate the development abstraction software. In other words, these tools provide a meta definition to build certain services. In the case of Informatica, those meta definitions are geared towards ETL tasks. The automation software is then able to manipulate the meta pieces to automatically generate those services. In other words, you have a system that knows how to manage the meta service pieces.
