source records of different bytes to target db with same byt

Post by ravi7487 »

Hi All,

I was asked a question this morning,

If we have source records of different lengths like 200bytes, 300bytes, 400bytes. How can I load it into target database where each record will be 500bytes in size?

Please let me know
Thank you

Welcome aboard.

This smacks of a poorly expressed interview question. The short answer is that there is not enough information. What is the record structure in each case?
