Hi Vino, Thank you for suggestions. In my case I am using DataSet since data is limited, and split/select is not available on DataSet api. I doubt even hash partition might not work for me. By doing hash partition, I do not know which partition is having which entity data (Dept, Emp in my example. And sometimes hasing might be same for 2 different entities). And on that partition I need to apply some other transformations(based on partition data) which is not possible using MapPartitionFunction.
Please suggest if my understanding is wrong and usecase is achievable (little example is of great help).
