Hi Experts, Performance Wise Which transformation is better in LOOKUP AND JOINER TRansformation..

Answer / sukanta

Look up will better perform because the cache is initially
created when the first record will reach at Look up
tarnsformation and the further records are work upon the
cached records.Look up will perfrom left outer Join
only.Other Joins can't be posible.You can check the records
are either exists in the lookup table or not.

Jioner will be slower than look up but sorted port
Join,well choosing of Master and detail configuration will
give better performance for Joiner.

Answer / raj

the lookup and joiner t/r can be used to join two sources data.

if two sources are in the same database lookup is better.
