Explanation

The Switch stage in DataStage is specifically designed to route input records to different output links based on the value of a selector field. Unlike a Filter stage which simply passes or rejects records, the Switch stage evaluates conditions and directs each record to exactly one of multiple output data sets. The Merge stage combines inputs, and the Funnel stage collects records from multiple inputs sequentially to a single output.
