Hi,

I was asked to improve "Datastage Transaction Frequency" (Admin Tasks) and I have no clue what that means.

Can anyone help regarding this.

Thanks

"improve" is vague term without knowing which metric to improve. The transaction frequency is probably a synonym for "commit frequency" and refers to how many actions are bundled together to form an atomic transaction (this is a common database term). A transaction is neither good nor bad and there is no "right" or "wrong" transaction size. It all depends upon your goal and/or problem.

No, don't ask. Demand to know.
