Configuring the Cache Sizes for a Rank Transformation

Configuring the Cache Sizes for a Rank Transformation

You can configure the cache sizes for the Rank transformation in the session properties.
The following table describes the input you provide to calculate the Rank cache sizes:
Input
Description
Number of Groups
Number of groups. The Rank transformation ranks data by group. Determine the number of groups using the group by ports. For example, if you group by Store ID and Item ID, have 5 stores and 25 items, and each store has all 25 items, then calculate the number of groups as:
5 * 25 = 125 groups
Number of Ranks
Number items in the ranking. For example, if you want to rank the top 10 sales, you have 10 ranks. The cache calculator populates this value based on the value set in the Rank transformation.
Data Movement Mode
The data movement mode of the Integration Service. The cache requirement varies based on the data movement mode. ASCII characters use one byte. Unicode characters use two bytes.
Enter the input and then click Calculate to calculate the data and index cache sizes. The calculated values appear in the Data Cache Size and Index Cache Size fields.
