Write to Hub

Write to Hub is a sink stage allows you to intuitively create a model using input data to define entities, relationships, and properties. Upon execution, Write to Hub loads the data into the hub.

The Write to Hub stage can be used to link data together, resulting in a complex network of relationships called a hub, which can be displayed in a model. Once that model is created, it can be queried against in a Read From Hub stage or a Query Hub stage, or it can be visualized in Data Hub Visualization workspaces or in the Relationship Analysis Client to identify relationships and trends that may otherwise be hard to find.

To configure a Write to Hub stage, you need to complete the Entities tab and the Relationships tab. You can also use the Options tab to set processing preferences and determine how you want data to be written to the hub.
