Detailed Description

A set of parameters for Kinetica.createUnion.

Merges data from one or more tables with comparable data types into a new table.

The following merges are supported:

UNION (DISTINCT/ALL) - For data set union details and examples, see Union. For limitations, see Union Limitations and Cautions.

INTERSECT (DISTINCT/ALL) - For data set intersection details and examples, see Intersect. For limitations, see Intersect Limitations.

EXCEPT (DISTINCT/ALL) - For data set subtraction details and examples, see Except. For limitations, see Except Limitations.

◆ CreateUnionRequest() \[1/2]

kinetica.CreateUnionRequest.CreateUnionRequest

(

)

inline

Constructs a CreateUnionRequest object with default parameters.

Definition at line 766 of file CreateUnion.cs.

◆ CreateUnionRequest() \[2/2]

kinetica.CreateUnionRequest.CreateUnionRequest	(	string	table\_name,
		IList\< string >	table\_names,
		IList\< IList\< string > >	input\_column\_names,
		IList\< string >	output\_column\_names,
		IDictionary\< string, string >	options = null )

inline

Constructs a CreateUnionRequest object with the specified parameters.

Parameters

table\_name	Name of the table to be created, in \[schema\_name.]table\_name format, using standard name resolution rules and meeting table naming criteria.
table\_names	The list of table names to merge, in \[schema\_name.]table\_name format, using standard name resolution rules. Must contain the names of one or more existing tables.
input\_column\_names	The list of columns from each of the corresponding input tables.
output\_column\_names	The list of names of the columns to be stored in the output table.
options	Optional parameters. CREATE\_TEMP\_TABLE: If TRUE, a unique temporary table name will be generated in the sys\_temp schema and used in place of table\_name . If PERSIST is FALSE (or unspecified), then this is always allowed even if the caller does not have permission to create tables. The generated name is returned in QUALIFIED\_TABLE\_NAME. Supported values: TRUE FALSE The default value is FALSE. COLLECTION\_NAME: \[DEPRECATED–please specify the containing schema for the projection as part of table\_name and use Kinetica.createSchema to create the schema if non-existent] Name of the schema for the output table. If the schema provided is non-existent, it will be automatically created. The default value is ''. MODE: The mode describes what rows of the tables being unioned will be retained. Supported values: UNION\_ALL: Retains all rows from the specified tables. UNION: Retains all unique rows from the specified tables (synonym for UNION\_DISTINCT). UNION\_DISTINCT: Retains all unique rows from the specified tables. EXCEPT: Retains all unique rows from the first table that do not appear in the second table (only works on 2 tables). EXCEPT\_ALL: Retains all rows(including duplicates) from the first table that do not appear in the second table (only works on 2 tables). INTERSECT: Retains all unique rows that appear in both of the specified tables (only works on 2 tables). INTERSECT\_ALL: Retains all rows(including duplicates) that appear in both of the specified tables (only works on 2 tables). The default value is UNION\_ALL. CHUNK\_SIZE: Indicates the number of records per chunk to be used for this output table. CHUNK\_COLUMN\_MAX\_MEMORY: Indicates the target maximum data size for each column in a chunk to be used for this output table. CHUNK\_MAX\_MEMORY: Indicates the target maximum data size for all columns in a chunk to be used for this output table. CREATE\_INDEXES: Comma-separated list of columns on which to create indexes on the output table. The columns specified must be present in output\_column\_names . PARTITION\_TYPE: Partitioning scheme to use for the output table. Supported values: RANGE: Use range partitioning. INTERVAL: Use interval partitioning. LIST: Use list partitioning. HASH: Use hash partitioning. SERIES: Use series partitioning. PARTITION\_KEYS: Comma-separated list of partition keys, which are the columns or column expressions by which records will be assigned to partitions defined by PARTITION\_DEFINITIONS. PARTITION\_DEFINITIONS: Comma-separated list of partition definitions, whose format depends on the choice of PARTITION\_TYPE. See range partitioning, interval partitioning, list partitioning, hash partitioning, or series partitioning for example formats. IS\_AUTOMATIC\_PARTITION: If TRUE, a new partition will be created for values which don't fall into an existing partition. Currently only supported for list partitions. Supported values: TRUE FALSE The default value is FALSE. TTL: Sets the TTL of the output table specified in table\_name . PERSIST: If TRUE, then the output table specified in table\_name will be persisted and will not expire unless a TTL is specified. If FALSE, then the output table will be an in-memory table and will expire unless a TTL is specified otherwise. Supported values: TRUE FALSE The default value is FALSE. VIEW\_ID: ID of view of which this output table is a member. The default value is ''. FORCE\_REPLICATED: If TRUE, then the output table specified in table\_name will be replicated even if the source tables are not. Supported values: TRUE FALSE The default value is FALSE. STRATEGY\_DEFINITION: The tier strategy for the table and its columns. COMPRESSION\_CODEC: The default compression codec for this table's columns. NO\_COUNT: Return a count of 0 for the union table response to avoid the cost of counting; optimization needed for many chunk virtual unions. The default value is 'false'. The default value is an empty Dictionary.
