Adding an Enterprise Geocoding Module Global Database Resource
Unlike other stages, the Geocode Address Global and Reverse Geocode Global stages are not visible in Management Console or Enterprise Designer until you define a database resource. New stages are created for each global database resource that you define. For example, if you define one database resource containing databases for Mexico and Canada, and another database resource containing data for Australia and Singapore, you would see two Geocode Address Global stages, one capable of geocoding addresses in Mexico and Canada and the other capable of geocoding addresses in Australia and Singapore. You would also see two Reverse Geocode Global stages, one for Mexico and Canada and one for Australia and Singapore.
- Australia, Canada, France, Germany, and Japan have large geocoding databases. Do not put more than one or two of these in the same database resource.
- If you are running the Spectrumâ„¢ Technology Platform server on a 64-bit machine, database resources should contain no more than eight to ten countries. If you require more, Java memory settings need to be modified. For assistance, contact technical support.
