Enrich Plan and Forecast Data

This View function adds the technical field Partition Key to the original test data to further increase the processing speed, if needed. This can be achieved in the following ways:

Partitioning: A partition key can further increase the reading and writing speed of mass data in scale-out system landscapes.
Package Parallelization: A partition key can further increase the calculation speed of mass data if the data in a package can be calculated independently from each other without affecting the result.

Note

This is usually the case in all kinds of linear, step down or network processes. It is usually not the case in all kinds of circular and iterative processes.

Both techniques can be used alone or in combination. A prerequisite is that the data across different partition key values is distributed quite evenly so that each package/partition has roughly the same data volume. As a result, the processing time will be quite similar.

In this environment, one Partitioning ID P1 is prepared in the Partition tab. The end user can change ranges for demonstration purposes. The package parallelization is not used by default in this sample content as it is not using mass data.
