Read the first 7 DevOps & Deployment flashcards as text

  1. Which IICS feature allows you to parameterize connection names so the same mapping package can point to different databases in dev, test, and prod?

    Answer: Parameter files

    Parameter files let you define connection names, source/target paths, and other values externally so the same mapping runs against different environments without editing.

  2. In IICS, what is the recommended approach for storing sensitive credentials used by connections in a DevOps pipeline?

    Answer: Store them in the CI/CD system's secret manager and inject via IICS REST API at deploy time

    Credentials should live in a secrets manager (e.g., HashiCorp Vault or CI/CD secrets) and be pushed to IICS connections via the REST API during deployment, never stored in source control.

  3. Which Informatica Cloud tool provides a visual dashboard for monitoring real-time job execution status, errors, and throughput across all tasks?

    Answer: Monitor

    The Monitor page in IICS shows active, completed, and failed job runs with row counts, throughput, and error details in near-real time.

  4. When a Secure Agent group is used, how does IICS determine which agent in the group runs a specific job?

    Answer: IICS uses a load-balancing algorithm considering agent availability and capacity

    IICS automatically load-balances jobs across available agents in the group, factoring in agent health and current workload.

  5. Which IICS Administrator setting allows you to restrict which IP addresses can access the organization?

    Answer: Allowed IP Ranges

    The Allowed IP Ranges setting in IICS Administrator restricts login and API access to specified CIDR blocks, reducing attack surface.

  6. In IICS Taskflow, what control flow element should you use to execute a branch only when a prior task fails?

    Answer: Conditional branch with failure event

    A conditional branch configured with the 'on failure' condition routes the Taskflow to an alternate path when a task does not complete successfully.

  7. What is the effect of enabling 'incremental' deployment mode when importing an IICS package into a target organization?

    Answer: Existing objects with the same name are skipped; only new objects are created

    Incremental import mode skips objects that already exist in the target org and only creates net-new objects, preventing accidental overwrites.
