hi, my problem here is the volume of the data is so huge and even if we try to replicate the db,the time it would take would really be high i guess. we have nearly 60-70 files daily which would have around 0.1 mil to 0.5 mil each. our batch timing is for around 8 hours to complete all the processing...

But the main table is quite busy all the time, --selects, inserts and updates are being done simultaneously on the same table. Hence this join takes too much ...

count rows coming through a link

Hi,

I want to count the number of rows coming through a link and store the value in a file. If i use the aggregator it is counting the records only in groups but not the total number of records. I have unique records in every row.
how can i count the total number of records in a file.

i tried to convert the input format to yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss using substring in transformer stage and it worked. but i think substring might take longer time than iconv-oconv. so i am trying to convert using iconv.
