# tStandardizeRow

Normalizes the incoming data in a separate XML or JSON data flow to separate or standardize the rule-compliant data from the non-compliant data.

tStandardizeRow tokenizes the data flow it has received from the preceding component and applies user-defined parser rules to analyze the data. Based on this analysis, this component normalizes and writes analyzed data in a separate data flow and tags them using the user-defined rule names. It does not make any changes on your raw data.

The standardization option adds a supplementary column to the output flow where the normalized data are then standardized.

The Java library ANTLR is used to parse and tokenize the incoming data. For further information about ANTLR, see the site

http://www.antlr.org/

In local mode, Apache Spark 3.0.x and later versions are supported.

This component is not shipped with your Talend Studio by default. You need to install it using the Feature Manager. For more information, see [Installing features using the Feature Manager](https://help.qlik.com/talend/r/en-US/8.0/studio-user-guide/install-features-to-talend-studio).
