You publish flat files from file systems, including Hadoop Distributed File Systems (HDFS). When you publish files from HDFS,

Data Integration Hub

does not delete the files after it reads them. If required, you must delete the files yourself.

You can use file transfer to publish flat files from applications that reside outside the

Data Integration Hub

network. You cannot use file transfer to publish files from HDFS.

When you use file transfer, you can select whether or not

Data Integration Hub

deletes the files from the remote server after it reads them.
