Difference in the implementation of lookup and join
stages,in joining two tables?

Answer Posted / zulfi123786

Hi This is Zulfi

Basically Join is used when you have large amount of data
about in millions and it performs inner join,left
outer,right outer and full outer joins
The join stage requires the incomming data to be hash
partitioned and sorted on the joining keys

The look up is used when the reference records are fewer in
number about less than one lakh and it doesnot require the
incomming source data to be sorted, instead the refrence
link should be in Entire partition mode.

In look up there are two types
Normal and Sparse
Sparse is available only when the reference is a database.
usually Normal has to be used unless when the refrence to
source rows ratio is 100:1
