Why the UNION TRANSFERMATION is an Active TRANSFERMATION
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
In Union Transformation we may combine the data from two
(or) more sources. Assume Table-1 contains '10' rows and
Table-2 contains '20' rows. If we combine the rows of
Table-1 and Table-2 we will get a total of '30' rows in the
Target. So it is definitely an Active Transformation.

Answer / narendra.s
1)A transformation that effect the no of rows or change the no of rows while processing the data.
2)In this way the union transformation is change the 10+5 records into 15 records.
3)union transformation can't remove the duplicate records.
4)we can create multiple input groups, but only one output group.
In this way we can cal union is an Active and Connected transformation.

Answer / priya yadav
Any Tranformation that changes the no of passed records
while processing is an active transformation. Union
transformation unions the record from different
sources/transformations(whatever it is in mapping), so the
no of records input to it are different from the no of
records that you recieve as output from it. Thats why it is
considered as an active transformation.
For Example,
You union these records from tweo Sources:
Source A: Source B:
A 1 2 D 7 8
B 3 4 A 1 2
C 5 6 E 4 3
Total Input Records: 6
Output Target:
A 1 2
B 3 4
C 5 6
D 7 8
E 4 3
Total: 5
Hope it helps!!!
Thank you!!
