CDAP Table Dataset Sink (Deprecated)

Note: Datasets and the CDAP Table Dataset Sink are deprecated and will be removed in CDAP 7.0.0.

Writes records to a CDAP Table with one record field mapping to the Table rowkey, and all other record fields mapping to Table columns.

The sink is used whenever you need to write to a Table in batch. For example, you may want to periodically dump the contents of a relational database into a CDAP Table.
