hop是用來吧transformation和job連接起來的。數(shù)據流動的方向在hop里是通過箭頭表示的。hop可以設置為有效或者無效。

Transformation Hops：

如果在轉換中，hop是無效的，那么，在數(shù)據流方向上，其后的單元將得不到任何數(shù)據。從而導致結果是無效的。比如，在無效hop的下一個轉換，單擊get fields，講啥都得不到。

job hops

"Unconditional" specifies that the next job entry will be executed regardless of the result of the originating job entry.
"Follow when result is true" specifies that the next job entry will only be executed when the result of the originating job entry was true, meaning successful execution, file found, table found, without error, evaluation was false, ...
"Follow when result is false" specifies that the next job entry will only be executed when the result of the originating job entry was false, meaning unsuccessful execution, file not found, table not found, error(s) occurred, evaluation was false, ..
