tTopBy

Groups and sorts data and outputs several rows from the first one of the data in
each group.

tTopBy groups the
input data by applying user-defined keys, sorts records in each group and sends to its
following component a given number of first rows of the sorted records.

Depending on the Talend
product you are using, this component can be used in one, some or all of the following
Job frameworks:

tTopBy properties for Apache Spark Batch

These properties are used to configure tTopBy running in the Spark Batch Job framework.

The Spark Batch
tTopBy component belongs to the Processing family.

The component in this framework is available in all subscription-based Talend products with Big Data
and Talend Data Fabric.

Basic settings

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.

Click Edit
schema to make changes to the schema. If the current schema is of the Repository type, three options are available:

  • 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.

Click Sync
columns to retrieve the schema from the previous component connected in the
Job.

 

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.

Number of line selected

Enter the number of rows to be outputted. The current component selects this number of
rows down from the first rows of the sorted data.

Key

Select the column(s) from which the records are used as keys to group the input
data.

You need to click [+] to add as many lines as required to use as keys for the grouping to be
completed

Criteria

Click [+] to add as many lines as required for the sort
to be completed.

In the Schema column column, select the column from your
schema, which the sort will be based on. Note that the order is essential as it determines
the sorting priority.

In the other columns, select how you need the data to be sorted. For example, if you need
to sort the data in ascending alphabetical order (from A to Z), select alpha and asc in the corresponding
columns.

Usage

Usage rule

This component is used as an intermediate step.

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

Spark Connection

In the Spark
Configuration tab in the Run
view, define the connection to a given Spark cluster for the whole Job. In
addition, since the Job expects its dependent jar files for execution, you must
specify the directory in the file system to which these jar files are
transferred so that Spark can access these files:

  • Yarn mode (Yarn client or Yarn cluster):

    • When using Google Dataproc, specify a bucket in the
      Google Storage staging bucket
      field in the Spark configuration
      tab.

    • When using HDInsight, specify the blob to be used for Job
      deployment in the Windows Azure Storage
      configuration       area in the Spark
      configuration       tab.

    • When using Altus, specify the S3 bucket or the Azure
      Data Lake Storage for Job deployment in the Spark
      configuration       tab.
    • When using Qubole, add a
      tS3Configuration to your Job to write
      your actual business data in the S3 system with Qubole. Without
      tS3Configuration, this business data is
      written in the Qubole HDFS system and destroyed once you shut
      down your cluster.

    • When using on-premise
      distributions, use the configuration component corresponding
      to the file system your cluster is using. Typically, this
      system is HDFS and so use tHDFSConfiguration.

  • Standalone mode: use the
    configuration component corresponding to the file system your cluster is
    using, such as tHDFSConfiguration or
    tS3Configuration.

    If you are using Databricks without any configuration component present
    in your Job, your business data is written directly in DBFS (Databricks
    Filesystem).

This connection is effective on a per-Job basis.

tTopBy properties for Apache Spark Streaming

These properties are used to configure tTopBy running in the Spark Streaming Job framework.
