Grid and Content Management Service
You must associate a Content Management Service with a Data Integration Service to run mappings that read reference data. To associate a Content Management Service with a Data Integration Service that runs on a grid, you must create and configure multiple Content Management Services and multiple Data Integration Services.
To associate a Content Management Service with a Data Integration Service that runs on a grid, perform the following tasks:
- 1. Create a grid where each node in the grid includes both the service and compute roles.
- 2. Create a Data Integration Service and assign the service to run on the grid. Configure the Data Integration Service to run jobs in separate local or remote processes.
- 3. Create a Content Management Service and a new Data Integration Service to run on each node in the grid.
- 4. Associate each Content Management Service with the Data Integration Service that runs on the same node.
- 5. Associate each Content Management Service and Data Integration Service with the same Model Repository Service that the Data Integration Service on grid is associated with.
The Content Management Service provides reference data information to all Data Integration Service processes that run on the same node and that are associated with the same Model Repository Service.
The following image shows an example domain that contains three nodes. A total of three Data Integration Services, two Content Management Services, and one Model Repository Service exist in the domain:
The following services run in the domain:
- •A Data Integration Service named DIS_grid. DIS_grid is assigned to run on the grid. A DIS_grid process runs on each node in the grid. When you run a job on the grid, the DIS_grid processes run the job.
- •A Data Integration Service named DIS1 and a Content Management Service named CMS1 assigned to run on Node1. CMS1 is associated with DIS1.
- •A Data Integration Service named DIS2 and a Content Management Service named CMS2 assigned to run on Node2. CMS2 is associated with DIS2.
- •A Model Repository Service named MRS1 assigned to run on Node3. Each Data Integration Service and Content Management Service in the domain is associated with MRS1. In this example, the Model Repository Service runs on a node outside of the Data Integration Service grid. However, the Model Repository Service can run on any node in the domain.
