Cache Partitioning

Cache Partitioning

When you create a session with multiple partitions, the Integration Service may use cache partitioning for the Aggregator, Joiner, Lookup, Rank, and Sorter transformations. When the Integration Service partitions a cache, it creates a separate cache for each partition and allocates the configured cache size to each partition. The Integration Service stores different data in each cache, where each cache contains only the rows needed by that partition. As a result, the Integration Service requires a portion of total cache memory for each partition.
When the Integration Service uses cache partitioning, it accesses the cache in parallel for each partition. If it does not use cache partitioning, it accesses the cache serially for each partition.
The following table describes the situations when the Integration Service uses cache partitioning for each applicable transformation:
Transformation
Description
Aggregator Transformation
You create multiple partitions in a session with an Aggregator transformation. You do not have to set a partition point at the Aggregator transformation.
Joiner Transformation
You create a partition point at the Joiner transformation.
Lookup Transformation
You create a hash auto-keys partition point at the Lookup transformation.
Rank Transformation
You create multiple partitions in a session with a Rank transformation. You do not have to set a partition point at the Rank transformation.
Sorter Transformation
You create multiple partitions in a session with a Sorter transformation. You do not have to set a partition point at the Sorter transformation.
