Use Union In-DB to combine 2 or more In-DB data streams with similar data structures based on field names or field positions. In the output, each column contains the data from each input.

In-Database enables blending and analysis against large sets of data without moving the data out of a database and can provide significant performance improvements over traditional analysis methods. For more about the In-Database tool category, visit In-Database Overview.

Configure the Tool

    • Auto Config by Name: Aligns fields by field name.

    • Auto Config by Position: Aligns fields by their field order in the stream.

  2. When Fields are Different: Select how to handle nonconforming data fields from the dropdown:

    • Error - Stop Processing: Throws an error in the Results window, and ends the schema.
