JOINER
TRANSFORMATION:
to join source data from two related heterogeneous sources
residing in different locations or file systems. Or, you
can join data from the same source.
If you need to join more than two sources, you can add more
Joiner transformations to the
mapping.
You cannot use a Joiner transformation in the following
situations:
Either input pipeline contains an Update Strategy
transformation.
You connect a Sequence Generator transformation directly
before the Joiner transformation.
UNION
TRANSFORMATION:
The Union transformation is a multiple input group
transformation that you can use to merge data from multiple
pipelines or pipeline branches into one pipeline branch.
The Union transformation merges sources with matching ports
and outputs the data from one output group with the same
ports as the input groups.
Similar to the UNION ALL statement, the Union
transformation does not remove duplicate rows.

joiner:
joiner doesn't require marching ports to join ,
both shoud be from heterogenious sources.
union:
union requires two flows with same no of columns and both
columns of the two flows orders should be same to produce
the combined flow .
