Job Example PTS00029 – Read HDFS and Load into the Database

Sample Script
For the sample script that corresponds to this job, see the following script in the sample/userguide directory:
PTS00029: Read HDFS flat file.
Rationale
This job uses:
- DataConnector operator template as the producer because it can read files in the HDFS filesystem, referencing values defined in the job variable file without requiring an explicit operator definition.
- Load operator template as the consumer because it is the consumer operator that offers the best performance for high speed writing of a large number of rows into an empty database table.
