How do you remove duplicates in dataset
in how many ways we can delete dataset? If a record is duplicated 3 times then how to get middle duplicated record? Is it advisable to use basic Tfr in Parallel jobs?

We can use filter stage here to get middle record from 3 duplicate records.

First you have to open the data set and click on the partitioning and after click hash partition and next click perform sort after click on unique and after ok and after compile and run the job.open the target output,the duplicate records are removed..

Explain the best approch to do a SCD type2 mapping in parallel job?
manoharkolukula
- Feb 12th, 2008
use CDC, lookup, trasformer stages to impliment SCD2. In CDC just give the changed values and key column, then capture the changed records, in transformer just give the constraint for 0,1,2,3(del,insert,copy,updated data), u will get inserted data and updated data, copied data, deleted data.

This is little tricky question.we can do in two ways.
1)we can connect using lookup stage if both columns having same datatype.
2)We can add one extra column that is common for two files then we can connect. -

What is the max size of Data set stage?
Venkat Duvvuri
- Sep 9th, 2011
S I agree with Hari's answer..Thae max size of the dataset stage is entirely depends upon the size of the resource disk space, which we have specified under config file.

The Max size of a Dataset is equal to the summation of the space available in the Resource disk specified in the configuration file.

Shiva is right and he suggested with a great example. You can perform this logic by taking transformer and hashfile stage in server job and if you want to perform scd in parellel then you will have to use change capture and change apply stage.

What are Stage Variables, Derivations and Constants?
Stage Variable - An intermediate processing variable that retains value during read and doesnt pass the value into target column. Derivation - Expression that specifies value to be passed on to the target column. Constant - Conditions that are either true or false that specifies flow of data with a link.
