    If the records are transfered from Source to target and if you want to check whether all the records are stored in the target. What are the possible ways to check that.

    If you want to check the records,you can directly use MINUS query for eg

    Code
    1.  SELECT  count(*) FROM source
    2. minus
    3. SELECT count(*) FROM target
    4.  
    5.  
    Hope this will help Thanks Risha

    The joiner transformation compares each row of the master source against the detail source. Hence, fewer number of rows in master means fewer iterations of join comparison.

    Secondly It is easier to cache the table with fewer number of rows.

    Hence, using the table having the fewer number of rows as a master improves the performance.

    @ponnana: The performance of the joiner depends on the rows and not on the columns. Also you take up the condition which consists n number of columns. Based on the condition the rows are obtained. So We need not worry about the columns.

    The join is happening based on some condition. Therefore match process depends on the condition columns only and not how many columns are present in total. The table you drag into joiner first is considered as Master.

    Database partitioning. The PowerCenter Integration Service queries the IBM DB2 or Oracle system for table partition information. It reads partitioned data from the corresponding nodes in the database....
