Introduction
Flat file Transformation in Informatica
A flat file is a collection of information stored and accessed sequentially in a database, often created to store information in a non-structured way. Comma Separated Value (CSV) sheets, for example, present information with each field separated from the next by a comma. While a flat file system offers some advantages, it often makes large amounts of data quite cumbersome to store and access. The majority of databases used today are relational systems that use structured queries to retrieve information and present it to the user.
