Hi - I am looking for some component that can be shared across jobs while generating the next value of Sequence. I found the below link on help page. But this appears to be a non-persistent way which will increment everytime from the value set. https://help.talend.com/search/all?query=How+to+create+a+Sequence&content-lang=en Below is my requirement. I need to get the next value of sequence in parallel and use it in my jobs, while getting the next value i need to ensure that the value is not duplicated for different jobs and is always unique. The sequence is not per row but for Job. Eg: While generating the Sequence in Parallel for 4 Jobs: Job 1 - Sequence Value = 1 Job 2 - Sequence Value = 2 Job 3 - Sequence Value = 3 Job 4 - Sequence Value = 4 Thanks,
Does it have to be a sequence? You could use UUID (String 36). import java.util.UUID; public static String getUUID() { return UUID.randomUUID().toString(); } if you need a sequence, you probably either have to externalise the generation to something like a database or use Talend's sequence method; but have to start passing initial values around your Jobs.
Hi -
Unfortunately i cannot rely on the database as sequences are disabled. Is there anything similar to informatica sequence generator transformation we can use in talend to push the key generation with auto-increment by storing the last incremented value persistently within talend?
Thank you.
