Common properties of Data Partitioning components

Development > Component reference > Data Partitioning > Common properties of Data Partitioning components

These components are dedicated to data flow management when using Data Partitioning or in the CloverDX Cluster environment.

Table 79. Data Partitioning components comparison
Component	Same input metadata	Sorted inputs	Inputs	Outputs	Java	CTL	Auto-propagated metadata
ParallelPartition	✓	⨯	1	1^[1]	^[2]	^[2]	✓
ParallelLoadBalancingPartition	✓	⨯	1	1^[1]	⨯	⨯	✓

¹	The single output port represents multiple virtual output ports.

²	ParallelPartition and ParallelRepartition can use either a transformation or two other attributes (Ranges or Partition key).

³	The single input port represents multiple virtual input ports.
