Demo data on PDI for task practice.

[Jmyekn1123]

Hi, I am new to the Sys Admin career journey. Asides from the Knowledge Check Tasks that accompanies the modules in Now Learning, is there some way I can load Demo Data into my PDI for practice, and maybe even find more practice tasks to try my hands on?

Any useful pointers will be appreciated.

Hi @Jmyekn1123,

The OOTB PDI comes with some demo data on all main tables, and any new plugin has option to opt for demo data, rest you can create new data while learning.  Are you looking for any specific table for demo data.

-Thanks,
