Accelerable¶
rename_col is always accelerable if the input is accelerable. A dataset that only uses accelerable verbs can be accelerated, making queries on the dataset respond faster.
Examples¶
rename_col event_time:input_time, uid:sourceHost, status_code:httpStatus
Renames the input columns to ‘event_time’, ‘uid’, ‘status_code’ while still retaining the rest of the columns in the table
