ABSTRACT:
A technique is provided for loading input data in one or more hierarchical format input files into a data store. Parallel processing of one or more input files is performed to output data. The data is serially loaded into the data store while enforcing the order of the data in the one or more input files. Each input file may be a physical file or a logical file.
