Profiling Tools

You use multiple Informatica tools to manage the profiling process.
You can use the following tools to manage the profiling process:
Informatica Administrator
Manage users, groups, privileges, and roles. You can administer the Analyst service and manage permissions for projects and objects in Informatica Analyst. You can control the access permissions in Informatica Developer using this tool.
Informatica Developer
Create and run profiles in this tool to find and analyze the metadata of one or more data sources. You create profiles using a wizard.
Informatica Analyst
You can run a column profile in the Analyst tool. After you run a profile, you can drill down on data rows in a data source.
