1.TPT Description

Teradata Parallel Transporter (TPT) is client software that performs data extractions,data transformations, and data loading functions in a scalable, parallel processingenvironment.
TPT brings together the traditional Teradata Load Utilities (FastLoad, MultiLoad,FastExport and TPump) into a single product using a single script language.
A GUI-based TPT Wizard is available for script generation.
Teradata database is the only target for load operators.
Any ODBC database, data files or devices may be source data.

2.Architecture

There are two types of parallelism used by TPT: pipeline parallelism and data parallelism .

(1) Pipeline parallelism (also called "functional parallelism")

A "producer" operator extracts data from a data source and writes ("produces") it to adata stream.
A "consumer" operator reads ("consumes") the data from the data stream and writes orloads data to the target.
Both operators can operate concurrently and independently of each other. This creates apipeline effect without the need for intermediary files.

(2) Data Parallelism

Each file can be handled bya different instance of the producer operator so that the files are read concurrently. Theoperator instances can then merge these files into a single data stream .

The data stream can then be inputto multiple consumer operators.

3.Operator Types

(1)The two key TPT operators are:

Producer operators:[produce a Data Stream]
which 'produce' a data stream, usually by reading source data.

Consumer operators:[consume a Data Stream]
which 'consume' data from a data stream, usually to be loaded to a target.

(2) Two additional operator types are:

Filter operators：[Consume and Produce a Data Stream]
which perform data transformation functions such as selection,validation, cleansing, and condensing.
Both consumers and producers since they consume an input data stream and produce an output data stream.

There are 3 ways to perform filtering operations in the TPT environment:
a) Use the MultiLoad INMOD Adapter operator as a filter.
b) Use the CASE statement and the WHERE clause in the APPLY statement to limit sets.
c) Create a custom filter operator using C or C++.

Standalone operators：[No Data Streams]
which perform any processing that does not involve sending data to, or receiving data from the data stream

A standalone operator does not send or receive data, and thus does not use datastreams.The following are standalone operators:

Update (Delete Task) Operator：Uses Update operator to delete rows from a single table.
DDL Operator：Permits DDL and some DML and DCL commands in a TPT script.
OS Command：Permits commands to the client OS in a TPT script

Data Connector Operator：Producer or Consumer
 TYPE DATACONNECTOR PRODUCER – if the file is being read 
 TYPE DATACONNECTOR CONSUMER – if the file is being written to

4.Export

(3) Exporting a CSV Data File Example

DEFINE JOB Export_CSV
DESCRIPTION 'Export Accounts data to CSV file'
(
DEFINE SCHEMA Accounts_Schema FROM TABLE DELIMITED 'AP.Accounts';
/* Place above statement on 1 line.
If DELIMITED option is not used,
define each field AS VARCHAR */
/*( Account_Number VARCHAR(11),
:
Balance_Current VARCHAR(12)
);
*/

DEFINE OPERATOR File_Writer

);

DEFINE OPERATOR Exp_Accounts
TYPE SELECTOR
SCHEMA Accounts_Schema

CAST(Balance_Current AS VARCHAR(12))
FROM AP.Accounts;'
);

APPLY TO OPERATOR (File_Writer[1])
SELECT *
FROM OPERATOR (Exp_Accounts[1]);
);

5.LOAD

(1) LOAD Job Example

DEFINE JOB Load_from_File
DESCRIPTION 'Load 1000 rows to empty AP.Accounts'
(
DEFINE SCHEMA Accounts_Schema
( Account_Number INTEGER,
Street_Number INTEGER,
Street CHARACTER(25),
City CHARACTER(20),
State CHARACTER(2),
Zip_Code INTEGER,
Balance_Forward DECIMAL(10,2),
Balance_Current DECIMAL(10,2)
);

DEFINE OPERATOR File_Reader
TYPE DATACONNECTOR PRODUCER
SCHEMA Accounts_Schema
ATTRIBUTES
( VARCHAR FileName = 'Export_1000',
VARCHAR Format = 'FORMATTED',
VARCHAR OpenMode = 'Read',
VARCHAR IndicatorMode = 'Y'
);

DEFINE OPERATOR Load_Accounts
TYPE LOAD
SCHEMA Accounts_Schema
ATTRIBUTES
( VARCHAR UserName = 'user1',
VARCHAR UserPassword = 'password1',
VARCHAR Tdpid = 'tdp1',
VARCHAR LogTable = 'Accounts_Load_Log',
VARCHAR TargetTable = 'Accounts',
INTEGER MaxSessions = 8,
INTEGER TenacitySleep = 1,
VARCHAR WildCardInsert = 'N' /*Default */  /*'Y[es]' = builds an INSERT statement 'N[o]' = (default); you must specify a INSERT ... VALUES statement */
);

APPLY ('INSERT INTO Accounts (Account_Number,
Street_Number, Street, City, State,
Zip_Code, Balance_Forward, Balance_Current)
VALUES (:account_number, :street_number, :street,
:city, :state, :zip_code,
:balance_forward, :balance_current);')
TO OPERATOR (Load_Accounts[1])
SELECT Account_Number, Street_Number, Street,City,
State, Zip_Code, Balance_Forward, Balance_Current
FROM OPERATOR (File_Reader[1]);
);

(2)LOAD Job Example (WildCardInsert)

The WildCardInsert option ONLY is available to theLOAD operator and does NOT work with the other operators

DEFINE OPERATOR Load_Accounts
TYPE LOAD
SCHEMA Accounts_Schema
ATTRIBUTES
( VARCHAR UserName = 'user1',
VARCHAR UserPassword = 'password1',
VARCHAR Tdpid = 'tdp1',
VARCHAR LogTable = 'Accounts_Load_Log',
VARCHAR TargetTable = 'Accounts',
INTEGER MaxSessions = 8,
INTEGER TenacitySleep = 1,
VARCHAR WildCardInsert = 'Y' /*Not default*/
);
APPLY ('INSERT INTO Accounts;')
TO OPERATOR (Load_Accounts[1])
SELECT * FROM OPERATOR (File_Reader[1]);
);

(3)Data Conversions

TPT permits conversion in the APPLY statement. Data can be converted to analternate data type, or be changed to/from a null

APPLY
( 'INSERT INTO Customer
VALUES (:Customer_Number, :Last_Name, :First_Name, :Social_Security);')
TO OPERATOR (Load_Customer [1])
SELECT
Customer_Number
,Last_Name
,First_Name
,CASE WHEN (Social_Security = 0) THEN NULL
ELSE Social_Security
END AS Social_Security
/* A derived column name is needed that matches the schema name */
FROM OPERATOR (File_Reader [1]);
);

(4) Checkpoint Option

Checkpoints slow down Load processing

使用方式一：
tbuild -f scriptfilename -z 60
f - This indicates the script file which is input to tbuild.
z - This indicates that a checkpoint will be taken every 60 seconds.

使用方式二：
DEFINE JOB test_job
SET CHECKPOINT INTERVAL 60 SECONDS
...

(5) Techniques to Load Multiple Data Files

UNION ALL – can be used with APPLY to combine multiple data files (and optionallyfrom different data sources) into a single source data stream.
File List – this is filename which contains a list of the data files to process.
Directory Scan – can be used to scan a directory for files to be processed.
Staged Loading – if you want to process data files serially or if they arrive at differenttimes, the first data file can be loaded and additional files are loaded as needed.

APPLY
('INSERT INTO Customer VALUES (:CustNum, … );')
TO OPERATOR (MyUpdateOperator [1])
SELECT * FROM OPERATOR (FileReader[1]
ATTRIBUTES (FileName = 'custdata1'))
UNION ALL
SELECT * FROM OPERATOR (FileReader[1]
ATTRIBUTES (FileName = 'custdata2'));

APPLY
( 'INSERT INTO Customer VALUES (:CustNum, … ) ;')
TO OPERATOR (MyUpdateOperator [1] )
SELECT * FROM OPERATOR
(MyExportOperator [1] ATTRIBUTES
(SelectStmt = 'SELECT * FROM Customer WHERE CustNum <= 100000;')
)
UNION ALL
SELECT * FROM OPERATOR
(MyExportOperator [1] ATTRIBUTES
(SelectStmt = 'SELECT * FROM Customer WHERE CustNum > 100000;')
);
