Join Transformation combines data record horizontally based on
join condition.
And combine data from two different sources having different metadata.
Join transformation supports heterogeneous, homogeneous data source.
Union Transformation combines data record vertically from multiple sources, having same metadata.
Union transformation also support heterogeneous data source.
Union transformation functions as UNION ALL set operator

Answer / medatati satya teja ravi kiran
UNION:1)we can create multiple input groups,but only one
out put group
2)we can connect heterogeneous sources to a union
transformation
3)The union tf does not remove duplicate rows.To remove
duplicte rows, we must add another tf such as router or
filter tf
JOIN:1)Used to join source data from two related
hetorogeneous sources residing in different locations or we
can join data from the same source
2)The joiner tf remove duplicate rows...
