Why the UNION TRANSFERMATION is an Active TRANSFERMATION..

Answer / chanakya

In Union Transformation we may combine the data from two
(or) more sources. Assume Table-1 contains '10' rows and
Table-2 contains '20' rows. If we combine the rows of
Table-1 and Table-2 we will get a total of '30' rows in the
Target. So it is definitely an Active Transformation.

Why the UNION TRANSFERMATION is an Active TRANSFERMATION..

Answer / priya yadav

Any Tranformation that changes the no of passed records
while processing is an active transformation. Union
transformation unions the record from different
sources/transformations(whatever it is in mapping), so the
no of records input to it are different from the no of
records that you recieve as output from it. Thats why it is
considered as an active transformation.
For Example,

You union these records from tweo Sources:

Source A: Source B:

A 1 2 D 7 8
B 3 4 A 1 2
C 5 6 E 4 3

Total Input Records: 6

Output Target:

A 1 2
B 3 4
C 5 6
D 7 8
E 4 3

Total: 5

Hope it helps!!!
Thank you!!
