During the configuration of Data analytics for a client, CTK creates relevant files and directories. The files are stored by client in the .../custom/<client>/XML/ directory of the PPM installation.
<client> indicates the client name and <realm> stands for the analysis realm name.
Example
.../custom/
<client>/
xml/
data_repositories/
JdbcConnection.xml
SapConnection.xml
CSVConnection.xml
realm_<realm>/
datasource_CUSTOMER.xml
datasource_FILM.xml
<client>_realm_<realm>.xml
<client>_CTK.xml
xml directory
The xml directory contains the analysis realm configuration file <client>_realm_<realm>.xml and the file <client>_CTK.xml. Each data connection created in CTK is listed in the <datarepositories> XML element of the file <client>_CTK.xml.
Example
<datarepositories>
< datarepository name="sakila_jdbc" type="JDBC"> ..\custom\umg_en\xml\data_repositories\sakila_jdbc.xml</ datarepository >
</datarepositories>
The directory also contains the directories realm_<realm> and data_repositories used for storing analysis realm-specific and independent files.
data_repositories directory
The data_repositories directory contains the XML files for the data connections defined in CTK. An XML file describes a specific connection to specific JDBC, SAP, or CSV source data including the required parameters described in the relevant DTD files for JDBC (JdbcConfig.dtd), SAP (r3Config.dtd), and CSV (csvextractor).
realm_<realm> directory
The realm_<realm> directory contains the data sources of an analysis realm. A data source is any individual table that is used in an analysis realm The tables are assigned to the analysis realms in CTK. Each data source is created as a separate XML file that the relevant extractor uses for extracting the source data.
