Module 1: Analyst Advanced Profiling

Lab 1-1: Data Domain Profiling
Overview:
A data domain is a predefined or user-defined Model repository object based on the semantics
of column data or a column name. For example, Social Security number, credit card number,
email ID, and phone number can be individual data domains.
A data domain helps you find important data that remains undiscovered in a data source. For
example, you may have legacy data systems that contain Social Security numbers in a
Comments field. You need to find this information and protect it before you move it to new data
systems.
A data domain glossary lists all the data domains and data domain groups. Use the Preferences
menu in the Developer tool to import and export data domains to and from the data domain
glossary.
Objectives:
 Log into Informatica Analyst
 Apply Data Domain Profiling
 Manage the Data Domain Glossary
Duration:
15 minutes
Tasks
Note: If you have just completed the Analyst course and are using the same image, you can
work with the files in the CUSTOMER_DATA Project that was created. If this is a fresh
copy of the image, please follow the instructions below.
1. Once you have logged into the Analyst, click Open to access the Library Tab.
a. From the Projects tab, navigate to CONTENT > Training_Materials > ANALYST
