The DTM process - Creates threads to initialize the session read write and transform data and handle pre- and post-session operations
DTM process is the second process associated with a session run
The primary purpose of the DTM process is to create and manage threads that carry out the session tasks
The DTM allocates process memory for the session and divides it into buffers. This is also known as buffer memory
It creates the main thread which is called the master thread
The master thread creates and manages all other threads
If you partition a session the DTM creates a set of threads for each partition to allow concurrent processing
When the Informatica Server writes messages to the session log it includes the thread type and thread ID
