 Metadata of the Application Data 

The metadata of the application data (metadata of the type DATA) are defined in the data streams using commands and SQL statements.

If the transformation spans multiple tables, the Loader stores this information in the system tables.

The corresponding data is stored in the database instance in the form of pages or rows, and in a data stream in the non-readable formats PAGES and RECORDS or in the readable formats FORMATTED, COMPRESSED, and LONG.

If the data are transformed to the format of rows, columns of the external data type CHAR with the code attribute ASCII can be transformed to values of data fields with the code attribute ASCII, UCS-2 or UTF-8.
