Industry Sector generator

Last modified: April 3, 2025

The Industry Sector generator produces data industry-related data that is commonly used in business or organizational databases. It also helps simulate real-world scenarios where it is required to categorize or classify entities into different industries.

Generator properties

The table provides key details about the generator, including the short name, sample of the generated data, the supported data types, and whether it is specific to a particular country.

Short name	Example of generated data	Data type matching	Country-specific

Matching rules

The generator can be assigned to a column whose name is ‘Industry’ or ‘Sector’, regardless of the table name.

The tool offers additional configuration options:

Set a path to the .txt file with the list of industry sectors. The default path to the file is C:\Users\Public\Documents\Devart\dbForge Studio for PostgreSQL\Data Generators\IndustrySectors.txt.
Select the Trim left trailing spaces checkbox to remove spaces, tabs, and other non-printing characters on the LEFT of each string.
Select the Trim right trailing spaces checkbox to remove spaces, tabs, and other non-printing characters on the RIGHT of each string (does not remove line breaks).
