Overview of TDV Administration
TDV forms the core of the Data Virtualization Platform. TDV can use data from many different data sources, recombine it, and make it available to many types of clients. The administrator needs to manage data sources, multiple connection and security protocols, complex data access methods, multi-level security, and internal repositories.
You need to perform most administration tasks periodically, but not necessarily daily. The table lists the main administration tasks and where to find information about them.
