Range Lookup in Join stage

Post by rohithmuthyala »

Hi,

Is it possible to do the range lookup in a join stage..?

Meaning, if the data volume if large then it's not feasible to use a lookup, so how to execute the concept of range lookup in a join stage...!

It's not possible. The Join stage only performs equi-joins.

Push the join back into the database (if possible) with a BETWEEN operator in the join condition.
