To summarize, we started the chapter with the debugger, which helps you with debugging errors in your mapping. Using debugger, you can pinpoint an error in your mapping, using which you can easily resolve the issue. Next in the chapter, we discussed reusable transformation, which allows you to reuse a transformation across mappings. Reusable transformations are very important, as they save the time and effort of recreating the same transformations. Moving on in the chapter, we talked about Mapplets, which allow you to reuse groups of transformations, which, in turn, makes your mapping simpler by replacing multiple transformations with a single component. Also, Mapplets save you time and effort by allowing you to reuse existing components. Next in the line was the target load plan, using which you can set up the priority of loading the target tables in a single mapping. This is useful when loading the data maintaining the constraints. We also looked at some details about parameters...
