Reading file from remote server

Hi,
We have a requirement to read the file from the Remote Server (Linux) and have to load them into the Target.
If am not wrong it can be established using FTP components. But the Limitation is I should not copy the File to the local directory. Is there any way to read the data from the file in remote server without copying them onto my local machine Inputs would be useful.
Thanks

hi,
use buffer (tBufferOutput) to store in memory.
And read it later with tBufferInput.
as it store in memory adapt you jvm allocated memory to your need.
hope it helps

Hi,
Thanks for the quick reply..
If the volume of data is less means we can go with that.
But in our case the volume of data is large.
So i fear JVM memory cant be changed to our need.
Thanks

Can you run your job on the remote server? What is your target?

I am also facing the same issue. My talend job has to read a file from unix server and load it into oracle database. Is there a way we can achieve this ? The file size in this case is big.
