You need to get a license for Hyperstage, its an Information Builders product.

Hyperstage is based on a product from Infobright.

And from what I have seen, when you use Hyperstage, you need to have all your data in it to get true benefits.

Hyperstage is a very different type of database, columnar, that runs on MySQL ISAM.

Throw out all preconceptions about db design and have a chunky machine to run it on, it does like memory.

It will cope with vast amounts of data and also compresses that data. The Hyperstage licence from IBI includes the Hyperstage adapter which does help keep performance at an optimal level.

As Waz has stated, you need to have all your data in Hyperstage for full benefit, as in self-sufficient Data Marts. There is a learning curve so advice from IBI is essential.

And unless IBI have changed there pricing model, its expensive.

When you install Hyperstage the licence, MySQL engine, drivers and adapter are installed automatically. If you have bought Hyperstage or have an evaluation copy, the install does everything for you. If you are asking these questions then you cannot have used the IBI install.

Hyperstage is best at Data Mart type application, you can extract data from Oracle and load into Hyperstage, and if properly designed and set up, get large performance benefits.

As I said before, get help from IBI, this subject is too big to be covered in a Forum.

Thanks Alan,

So If the client database is oracle,then we need to migrate the data from oracle to hyperstage using an ETL tool then need to use hyperstage tables in webfocus. Is it correct?

Please let me know

Thanks
Madhu

Yes. The Hyperstage install is actually very straightforward.

But as I have said before, please get advice from IBI as Hyperstage is a different model and you need to understand what data you have and what you are trying to achieve. There are tools for loading data efficiently and effectively and these tools can be called using iDM if required. Whilst SQL can be used, this use depends upon your requirements and data volumes.

As its a MySQL front end, you should be able to use anything that will work with MySQL.

Hi Waz,

If the client database is oracle,then need to migrate the data from oracle to hyperstage using an ETL tool then need to use hyperstage tables in webfocus.
If the client database is mysql then also we need to migrate the data from mysql to hyperstage or we can directly use mysql tables (no need migration)?

Please let me know

Thanks,
Madhu

Any data outside of Hyperstage has to be loaded into Hyperstage so that the data is under the control of the the Hyperstage storage engine. There are no shortcuts.

Madhu,

Hyperstage is a database, it has to have data. Why would you think that it does not require data to be loaded into it?

Please can you get IBI to help you before you go any further and there is also plenty of information on-line.
