Quickstart: Create an advanced serverless deployment using Informatica Intelligent Data Management Cloud

In this quickstart, you use the Azure portal to create an advanced serverless runtime in your Informatica Intelligent Data Management Cloud (IDMC) organization.

Prerequisites

  • An Informatica Organization. If you don't have an Informatica Organization, see Get started with Informatica.

  • After an Organization is created, make sure to sign in to the Informatica Portal from Overview tab of the Organization. Creating a serverless runtime environment fails if you don't first sign in to the Informatica portal at least once.

  • A subnet used in serverless runtime environment must be delegated to Informatica.DataManagement/organizations.

Create an advanced serverless deployment

In this section, you create an advanced serverless deployment of Informatica Intelligent Data Management Cloud using the Azure portal.

In the Informatica organization, select Serverless Runtime Environment from the service menu to navigate to the Advanced Serverless section. It shows the existing list of serverless runtime environments.

Property Description
Region Select the region where the serverless runtime environment is hosted.
Virtual network Select a virtual network to use.
Subnet Select a subnet within the virtual network to use.
Supplementary file Location Location of any supplementary files. Use the following format:abfs://<file_system>@<account_name>.dfs.core.windows.net/<path> For example, to use a JDBC connection, you place the JDBC JAR files in the supplementary file location. Then enter this location:abfs://discaleqa@serverlessadlsgen2acct.dfs.core.windows.net/serverless.
Custom Properties Specific properties that might be required for the virtual network. Use custom properties only as directed by Informatica Global Customer Support.
