Answer / prasanna
Using lookup is equivalent to outer join on source table.
As Bhavani said, if you want to join 2 heterogeneous
sources you cannot join in SQ. Then you need to use join.
Ex: you have 2 sources. One is a table in a DB and another
is a faltfile then you can only join using joiner.
Adv: you can perform operations similar to inner, left
outer, right outer and full outer. But using a lookup its
equivalent to left outer join on source.
It's always better to join a table which is small in SQ
then creating a lookup on it for better performance

Answer / k.rameshyadav
Lookup T/R is always is an alternate for joiner.
If the sources are same i.e homogenous we can perform join at database level.
