+
+    .. remarks::
+        ``PrefixColumnConcatenator`` creates a single vector-valued column from
+        multiple
+        columns. It can be performed on data before training a model. The
+        concatenation
+        can significantly speed up the processing of data when the number of
+        columns
+        is as large as hundreds to thousands.
+
+    :param columns: a dictionary of key-value pairs, where key is the output
+        column name and value is a list of input column names.
+
+         * Only one key-value pair is allowed.
+         * Input column type: numeric or string.
+         * Output column type:
+        `Vector Type </nimbusml/concepts/types#vectortype-column>`_.
+
+        The << operator can be used to set this value (see
+        `Column Operator </nimbusml/concepts/columns>`_)
+
+        For example
+         * ColumnConcatenator(columns={'features': ['age', 'parity',
+        'induced']})
+         * ColumnConcatenator() << {'features': ['age', 'parity',
+        'induced']})
+
+        For more details see `Columns </nimbusml/concepts/columns>`_.
