Informatica Transformation Language
This section describes Informatica Transformation Language new features in 10.2.1.
Complex Functions for Map Data Type
Effective in version 10.2.1, the transformation language introduces complex functions for map data type. Use complex functions for map data type to generate or process map data on the Spark engine.
The transformation language includes the following complex functions for map data type:
- •COLLECT_MAP
- •MAP
- •MAP_FROM_ARRAYS
- •MAP_KEYS
- •MAP_VALUES
Effective in version 10.2.1, you can use the SIZE function to determine the size of map data.
For more information about complex functions, see the "Functions" chapter in the Informatica 10.2.1 Developer Transformation Language Reference.
Complex Operator for Map Data Type
Effective in version 10.2.1, you can use a complex operator in mappings that run on the Spark engine to access elements in a map data type.
Map data type contains an unordered collection of key-value pair elements. Use the subscript operator [ ] to access the value corresponding to a given key in the map data type.
For more information about complex operators, see the "Operators" chapter in the Informatica 10.2.1 Developer Transformation Language Reference.
