Filter_Stage


Filter Stage:
Filter stage is a processing stage used to filter database based on filter condition.


The filter stage is configured by creating expression in the where clause.
Scenario1:Check for empty values in the customer name field.We are reading from sequential file and hence we should check for empty value instead of null.


Scenario 2:Comparing incoming fields.check transaction date falls between strt_dt and end_dt and filter those records.
Input Data:
CUSTOMER_IDCUSTOMER_NAMETRANSACTION_DTSTR_DTEND_DT
1UMA1/1/20105/20/201012/20/2010
1UMA5/28/20115/20/201012/20/2010
Output:
CUSTOMER_IDCUSTOMER_NAMETRANSACTION_DTSTR_DTEND_DT
1UMA5/28/20115/20/201012/20/2010
Reject:
CUSTOMER_IDCUSTOMER_NAMETRANSACTION_DTSTR_DTEND_DT
1UMA1/1/20105/20/201012/20/2010

Partition data based on CUSTOMER_ID to make sure all rows with same key values process on the same node.
Condition : where TRANSACTION_DT Between STRT_DT and END_DT


Actual Output:
Actual Reject Data:
Scenario 3:Evaluating input column data
ex:Where CUSTOMER_NAME=’UMA’ AND CUSTOMER_ID=’1′
Output :
Reject :

This covers  most filter stage scenarios.




FILTER STAGE WITH REAL TIME EXAMPLE

Filter Stage is used to write the conditions on Columns.

We can write Conditions on any number of columns.

For Example if you have the data like as follows


e_id,e_name,e_sal

1,sam,2000
2,ram,2200
3,pollard,1800
4,ponting,2200
5,sachin,2200


If we need to find who are getting the salary of 2200.

( In real time there will thousands of records at the source)

We can take Sequential file to read the and filter stage for writing Conditions.

And Dataset file to load the data into the Target.

Design as follows: ---

Seq.File---------Filter------------DatasetFile




Open Sequential File And

Read the data.

In filter stage -- Properties -- Write Condition in Where clause as

e_sal=2200

Go to Output -- Drag and Drop

Click Ok

Go to Target Dataset file and give some name to the file and that's it

Compile and Run

You will get the required output in Target file.


If you are trying to write conditions on multiple columns

Write condition in where clause

and give output like=(Link order number ) For EXAMPLE : 1

And Write another condition and select output link =0

( You can get the link order number in link ordering Option)

Design as follows : ----



Compile And Run

You will get the data to the both the Targets.
