Why MLOAD needs Work Tables?

Answer Posted / lilian

Work Tables are used to receive and sort
data and SQL on each AMP prior to storing them permanently
to disk.
The purpose of worktables is to hold two things:
1. The Data Manipulation Language (DML) tasks
2. The input data that is ready to APPLY to the AMPs
MultiLoad will automatically create one worktable for each
target table. This means that in IMPORT
mode you could have one or more worktables. In the DELETE
mode, you will only have one worktable since that
mode only works on one target table.
