Scenario: Doing a fuzzy match on two columns and outputting the match,
possible match and non match values (deprecated)
This scenario applies only to a subscription-based Talend Platform solution or Talend Data Fabric.
This scenario describes a six-component Job that aims at:
-
matching each processed group number in the grp column against the entries that have exactly the same values in the
reference input file, -
checking the edit distance between the entries in the firstname column of an input file against those of the
reference input file.
The outputs of these two matching types are written in three output files:
the first for match values, the second for possible match values and the third for the
values for which there are no matches in the lookup file.
In this scenario, we have already stored the main and reference input
schemas in the Repository. For more information about storing schema metadata in the
Repository, see
Talend Studio User Guide.
The main input file contains four columns: grp, gender, firstname and count. The data in this input file have problems such as duplication, first names
spelled differently or wrongly, different information for the same customer.
