I have got lot of queries for asking difference between options "Insert or Update" & "Update or Insert" for "Action on Data" drop down present in Output Database components in Talend.
Here is the difference between these two option:
For option "insert or update", it follows below steps for each input line:
- Perform a "select count(*) from table where id = <line_id>"
- If count > 0, perform an update, else perform an insert
For "update or insert", it follows below steps for each input line:
- Perform an update
- If no line updated, perform an insert
From result point of view there is no difference between these two options. Basically these options are for optimization based on the requirements :
- If you have more insert than update , you should use insert or update
- If you have more update than insert , you should use update or insert
Let me know, if you would like to add anything to this.
