  given reference. If the record does not exist in the index pool, a new record would be
  inserted.

• Delete: Remove entries corresponding to
  the input flow.

Clear data in table

Select this check box to clear data in the table before performing the
action defined.

Schema and Edit schema

A schema is a row description. It defines the number of fields
(columns) to be processed and passed on to the next component. When you create a Spark
Job, avoid the reserved word line when naming the
fields.

• Built-In: You create and store the schema locally for this component
  only.

• Repository: You have already created the schema and stored it in the
  Repository. You can reuse it in various projects and Job designs.

When the schema to be reused has default values that are
integers or functions, ensure that these default values are not enclosed within
quotation marks. If they are, you must remove the quotation marks manually.

You can find more details about how to
verify default values in retrieved schema in Talend Help Center (https://help.talend.com).

• View schema: choose this
  option to view the schema only.

• Change to built-in property:
  choose this option to change the schema to Built-in for local changes.

• Update repository connection:
  choose this option to change the schema stored in the repository and decide whether
  to propagate the changes to all the Jobs upon completion. If you just want to
  propagate the changes to the current Job, you can select No upon completion and choose this schema metadata
  again in the Repository Content
  window.

Guess Schema

Click this button to generate schema columns based on the settings of database table
columns.

Die on error

Select the check box to stop the execution of the Job when an error
occurs.

Clear the check box to skip any rows on error and complete the
process for error-free rows.

When errors are skipped, you can collect the rows on error
using a Row > Reject connection.

Specify a data source alias

Select this check box and in the
Data source alias field displayed, specify the alias of
a data source created on Talend Runtime side to use
the shared connection pool defined in the data source configuration. This option
works only when you deploy and run your Job in Talend Runtime.

If you use the component’s own DB configuration, your data source
connection will be closed at the end of the component. To prevent this from
happening, use a shared DB connection with the data source alias specified.

This property is not available when other connection component is selected from
the Connection Component drop-down list.

Commit every

Specify the number of rows to be processed before committing
batches of rows together into the database.

This option ensures transaction quality (but not rollback) and, above all, better
performance at executions.

Additional Columns

This option allows you to call SQL functions to perform actions on columns, which are
not insert, update or delete actions, or actions that require particular preprocessing.
It is not offered if you create (with or without drop) the database table.

• Name: The name of the schema column to be inserted, or the
  name of the schema column used to replace an existing column.

• SQL expression: The SQL statement to be executed in order to
  insert or replace relevant column.

• Position: Select Before,
  After, or Replace according to the
  action to be performed on the reference column.

• Reference column: The name of the reference column that can
  be used to locate the new column to be inserted or that will be replaced.

Use field options

Select this check box and in the Fields options table
displayed, select the check box for the corresponding column to customize a
request, particularly if multiple actions are being carried out on the
data.

• Key in update: Select the check box for the
  corresponding column based on which data is updated.
• Key in delete: Select the check box for the
  corresponding column based on which data is deleted.

• Updatable: Select the check box if data in the
  corresponding column can be updated.

• Insertable: Select the check box if data in
  the corresponding column can be inserted.

Select this check box to display each step during processing entries
in a database.

Use Batch

Select this check box to activate the batch mode for data
processing, and in the Batch Size field displayed, specify the
number of records to be processed in each batch.

tStatCatcher Statistics

Select this check box to gather the Job processing metadata at the Job level
as well as at each component level.

Enable parallel execution

Select this check box to perform high-speed data processing by treating
multiple data flows simultaneously. This feature depends on the database or
the application ability to handle multiple inserts in parallel as well as
the number of CPU affected. With this check box selected, you need to
specify the number of parallel executions desired in the Number
of parallel executions field displayed.

ERROR_MESSAGE

The error message generated by the component when an error occurs. This is an After
variable and it returns a string.

NB_LINE

The number of rows processed. This is an After variable and it returns an integer.

NB_LINE_INSERTED

The number of rows inserted. This is an After variable and it returns an integer.

NB_LINE_UPDATED

The number of rows updated. This is an After variable and it returns an integer.

NB_LINE_DELETED

The number of rows deleted. This is an After variable and it returns an integer.

NB_LINE_REJECTED

The number of rows rejected. This is an After variable and it returns an integer.

QUERY

The query statement being processed. This is a Flow variable and it returns a
string.

Usage rule

This component offers the flexibility benefit of the
database query and covers all of the SQL queries possible.

This component must be used as an output component. It
allows you to carry out actions on a table or on the data of a table in
a JDBC database. It also allows you to create a reject flow using a
Row > Rejects link to
filter data in error. For an example of tMySqlOutput in use, see Retrieving data in error with a Reject link.

Dynamic settings

Click the [+] button to add a row in the table
and fill the Code field with a context
variable to choose your database connection dynamically from multiple
connections planned in your Job. This feature is useful when you need to
access database tables having the same data structure but in different
databases, especially when you are working in an environment where you
cannot change your Job settings, for example, when your Job has to be
deployed and executed independent of Talend Studio.

For examples on using dynamic parameters, see Reading data from databases through context-based dynamic connections and Reading data from different MySQL databases using dynamically loaded connection parameters. For more information on Dynamic
settings and context variables, see Talend Studio
User Guide.

Usage rule

In a
Talend
Map/Reduce Job, it is used as an end component and requires
a transformation component as input link. The other components used along with it must be
Map/Reduce components, too. They generate native Map/Reduce code that can be executed
directly in Hadoop.

This component, along with the MapReduce family it belongs to, appears only when you are
creating a Map/Reduce Job.

Note that in this documentation, unless otherwise
explicitly stated, a scenario presents only Standard Jobs,
that is to say traditional
Talend
data integration Jobs, and non Map/Reduce Jobs.

Hadoop Connection

You need to use the Hadoop Configuration tab in the
Run view to define the connection to a given Hadoop
distribution for the whole Job.

This connection is effective on a per-Job basis.

Limitation

We recommend using the following databases with
the Map/Reduce version of this component: DB2, Informix, MSSQL, MySQL, Netezza,
Oracle, Postgres, Teradata and Vertica.

It may work with other databases as well, but
these may not necessarily have been tested.

Property type

• Delete: Remove entries corresponding to
  the input flow.

Die on error

Select the check box to stop the execution of the Job when an error
occurs.

Additional JDBC
parameters

Specify additional connection properties for the database connection you are
creating. The properties are separated by semicolon and each property is a key-value
pair, for example, encryption=1;clientname=Talend.

This field is not available if the Use an existing
connection check box is selected.

Left protected
char and Right protected char

Enter the symbol reserved by the database you are using, the left part in Left protected char and the right part in Right
protected char, so that tJDBCOutput can generate
SQL expressions with this reserved symbol properly placed.

For example, if you are using Oracle, double quotation marks (“) are reserved for object
names and so you need to enter the left and the right marks in these fields, respectively.
Then at runtime, tJDBCOutput places double quotations marks
around object names such as a table name.

Additional
Columns

This option allows you to call SQL functions to perform actions on columns,
provided that these are not insert, update or delete actions, or actions that require
pre-processing. This option is not available if you have just created the database table (even
if you delete it beforehand). Click the [+] button under
the table to add column(s), and set the following parameters for each column.

Name: Type in the name of the schema column to be altered
or inserted.

SQL expression: Type in the SQL statement to be executed in
order to alter or insert the data in the corresponding column.

Position: Select Before,
Replace or After,
depending on the action to be performed on the reference column.

Reference column: Type in a reference column that the
current component can use to locate or replace the new column, or the column to be
modified.

Use field
options

Select the check box for the corresponding column to customize a request,
particularly if multiple actions are being carried out on the data.

• Key in update: Select the check box for
  the corresponding column based on which the data is updated.

• Key in delete: Select the check box for
  the corresponding column based on which the data is deleted.

• Updatable: Select the check box if the
  data in the corresponding column can be updated.

• Insertable: Select the check box if the
  data in the corresponding column can be inserted.

Use Batch

Select this check box to activate the batch mode for data processing.

This check box is available only when
the Insert, the
Update or
the Delete
option is selected from the Action on data list in the Basic settings view.

Batch Size

This field appears only when the Use batch mode
check box is selected.

Connection pool

In this area, you configure, for each Spark executor, the connection pool used to control
the number of connections that stay open simultaneously. The default values given to the
following connection pool parameters are good enough for most use cases.

• Max total number of connections: enter the maximum number
  of connections (idle or active) that are allowed to stay open simultaneously.

  The default number is 8. If you enter -1, you allow unlimited number of open connections at the same
  time.

• Max waiting time (ms): enter the maximum amount of time
  at the end of which the response to a demand for using a connection should be returned by
  the connection pool. By default, it is -1, that is to say, infinite.

• Min number of idle connections: enter the minimum number
  of idle connections (connections not used) maintained in the connection pool.

• Max number of idle connections: enter the maximum number
  of idle connections (connections not used) maintained in the connection pool.

Evict
connections

Select this check box to define criteria to destroy connections in the connection pool. The
following fields are displayed once you have selected it.

• Time between two eviction runs: enter the time interval
  (in milliseconds) at the end of which the component checks the status of the connections and
  destroys the idle ones.

• Min idle time for a connection to be eligible to
  eviction: enter the time interval (in milliseconds) at the end of which the idle
  connections are destroyed.

• Soft min idle time for a connection to be eligible to
  eviction: this parameter works the same way as Min idle
  time for a connection to be eligible to eviction but it keeps the minimum number
  of idle connections, the number you define in the Min number of idle
  connections field.

Usage rule

This component is used as an end component and requires an input link.

This component should use a tJDBCConfiguration component present in the same Job to
connect to a database. You need to drop a tJDBCConfiguration component alongside this component and configure the
Basic settings of this component
to use tJDBCConfiguration.

This component, along with the Spark Batch component Palette it belongs to,
appears only when you are creating a Spark Batch Job.
