If we are using multi node configuration file in DS job, for Join Stage shouldn't we partition the incoming links in HASH mode and on the same key ?

Also if Join Stage has all the links coming from Database tables then from perfomance point of view is it a better idea to use Database Stage with Query having all the required tables with proper SQL joins instead of Join Stage ?

1- Yes, hash and partition is a good practice. modulus is also useful if the key is an entire.

2- Try the 2 solutions. If your database is powerful and your indexes well set , you can make your SQL query.
