Answer / eswar
When using incremental aggregation, you apply captured
changes in the source to aggregate calculations in a
session. If the source changes only incrementally and you
can capture changes, you can configure the session to
process only those changes. This allows the Informatica
Server to update your target incrementally, rather than
forcing it to process the entire source and recalculate the
same calculations each time you run the session.

Gradually to synchronize the target data with source data,
there are further 2 techniques:-
Refresh load - Where the existing data is truncated and
reloaded completely.
Incremental - Where delta or difference between target and
source data is dumped at regular intervals. Timsetamp for
previous delta load has to be maintained.

Answer / bharat
Incremental aggregation is a technique by which we can
capture the aggregated data incrementally.
for this we have to sort the data before sending it to
aggregator then we have to enable the property incremental
aggregation in the workflow level inside the session.

using incrimental aggrigation in session level,we calculate the only capture changes data in source,This allows the Informatica Server to update your target incrementally..

Incremental Aggregation ->
Incremental Aggregation is a technique to populate data on your aggregated tables or materialized view incrementally.
It takes new incoming data only based upon last updated column value or created_date time stamp column and thus uses its own cache created/updated earlier and updated the table as required.

If suppose, i use a dynamic lookup of target agg table and
an update stategy to update or insert records.. what is the
difference between this and Incremental aggregation ?? why
i need to depend on this Incremental aggregation chk box??
please clear my doubt

If we choose Incremental Aggregation Informatica will store the cache files permanently.

Answer / raghvendra
incremental aggregation performs aggregation on incremented
data..so based on requirements if we can use incremental
aggregation then definately it will improve performance..so
while develop mapping always keep in mind this factor too...
