What is the Router transformation?..

Answer / swetha

A Router transformation is similar to a Filter
transformation because both transformations allow you to
use a condition to test data. However, a Filter
transformation tests data for one condition and drops the
rows of data that do not meet the condition. A Router
transformation tests data for one or more conditions and
gives you the option to route rows of data that do not meet
any of the conditions to a default output group. If you need
to test the same input data based on multiple conditions,
use a Router Transformation in a mapping instead of creating
multiple Filter transformations to perform the same task.

Answer / manjunath

Router transformation is a active and connected transformation,
It is used to test multiple conditions in which it has two groups 1.Input group 2. output group . In router transformation
rejected rows will be sent to default group where we dont have in filter t/f. Router t/f is connected to multiple targets.
