What is diff between connected and unconnected lookup?..

Answer / padmavathi

Connected Lookup:
Part of the mapping dataflow.
Returns multiple values by linking output ports to
another transformation
Executed for every record passing through the transformation
More Visible, shows where the lookup values are used.

Unconnected Lookup:
Seperate from the mapping dataflow.
Returns one value by checking the return port option for
the output that provides the return value
only executed when the lookup function is called
Less visible, as the look is called from an expression
within another transformation
Default values are ignored

What is diff between connected and unconnected lookup?..

Answer / venkatesh reddy

connected lookup:

It is used to join the two tables
it returns multiple rows
it must be in mapping pipeline
u can implement lookup condition
using connect lookup u can generate sequence numbers by
enabling dynamic lookup cache.

unconnected lookup:
it returns single output through return port
it acts as a lookup function(:lkp)
it is called by another t/r.
not connected either source r target.
