  2. SNP_REV Tables Reference

C SNP_REV Tables Reference

The Oracle Data Integrator SNP_REV tables are stored in a design-time repository and are used as staging tables for model metadata.

Customized Reverse-engineering processes load these tables before integrating their content into the repository tables describing the models.

See Reverse-Engineering Strategies for more information.
