Details

ParallelMerge gathers data records from multiple CloverETL Cluster workers.

The algorithm of this component is derived from the regular Merge component. See the documentation of the Merge component for more details about attributes and other component specific behavior.

This component belongs to group of cluster components that allows the change from a multiple-workers allocation to a single-worker allocation. So the allocation of the component preceding the ParallelMerge component can provide multiple workers. The allocation of the component following the ParallelMerge component has to provide a single worker.

[Note]Note

More details about usage of this component are available in the CloverETL Cluster documentation.

Compatibility

3.4

The component is available since version 3.4.
