Schema

Input Schema

None.

Output Schema

Depending on the [Columns] setting, the number of columns may be different.

See " Schema of Table Model " for details regarding schema structure .

Loading schema in Mapper

Schema is loaded automatically.

See "Edit Schema" for any details .

Mass data processing

Mass data processing is supported.

In mass data processing, when you save the result data in a file, data is temporary stored in the memory. Thus if data amount is enormous, OutOfMemoryError may occur in mass data processing. In that case, expand the capacity of memory allocation in DataSpiderServer.

PSP Usage

PSP is supported.

For details on PSP, refer to "Parallel Stream Processing".
