This is a Graphical program representation that can be submitted directly for execution by the Ab Initio Graphical Development Environment (GDE), which is typically PC-based, to the Ab Initio engine for execution in a highly parallel server environment. The file contents are in a binary format representing processing blocks to be executed in a particular order. The .MP files are analogous to the source code in conventional programming languages. Ab Initio is used extensively in Extract/Transform/Load (ETL) operations by high volume data processing organizations like banks, telecommunications companies, and credit data processing agencies.
