Which IICS Data Quality transformation detects and standardizes inconsistent address formats?
Answer: Address Validator transformation
The Address Validator transformation uses reference data to parse, validate, and standardize postal addresses to a consistent format.
In IICS, what does enabling 'Truncate Target' on a mapping task do before writing records?
Answer: Deletes all existing rows from the target before inserting new ones
Truncate Target issues a TRUNCATE (or equivalent) on the target object before the mapping inserts fresh data, implementing a full-replace load pattern.
Which IICS service is best suited for ingesting high-volume streaming data from Kafka topics into a cloud data warehouse?
Answer: Streaming Ingestion (Mass Ingestion Streaming)
Mass Ingestion Streaming is designed for continuous, low-latency ingestion from messaging systems like Kafka into cloud targets.
In the IICS Administrator, what does setting a Secure Agent group's 'Max Concurrent Jobs' limit control?
Answer: The maximum number of tasks that can run simultaneously on that agent group
Max Concurrent Jobs caps parallel task execution on the agent group, preventing resource exhaustion on the underlying server.
Which parameter type in an IICS parameterized mapping lets you override a connection object at runtime?
Answer: Connection parameter (type = Connection)
A Connection parameter of type 'Connection' allows the caller to supply a different connection object when the mapping task is invoked, enabling reuse across environments.
In IICS Cloud Data Integration, what is a 'Mapping Configuration Task' (MCT)?
Answer: A task that runs a reusable mapping with a specific set of runtime parameters
An MCT binds a published mapping to a specific set of runtime parameter values, allowing the same mapping logic to serve multiple use cases.
Which IICS security feature restricts which data assets a user can view in the CLAIRE catalog based on their role?

Metadata Command Center applies asset-level and resource-group permissions so users only see catalog assets authorized for their role.
