Because of memory limitation i need to split a result from sql-component (List<Map<column,value>>) into smaller chunks (some thousand).
I know about
from(sql:...).split(body()).streaming().to(...)
and i also know
.split().tokenize("\n", 1000).streaming()
but the latter is not working with List<Map<>> and is also returning a String.
Is there a out of the Box way to create those chunks? Or do i need to add a custom aggregator just behind the split? Or is there another way?
Edit
Additional info as requested by soilworker:
At the moment the sql endpoint is configured this way:
SqlEndpoint endpoint = context.getEndpoint("sql:select * from " + lookupTableName + "?dataSource=" + LOOK_UP_DS,
SqlEndpoint.class);
// returns complete result in one list instead of one exchange per line.
endpoint.getConsumerProperties().put("useIterator", false);
// poll interval
endpoint.getConsumerProperties().put("delay", LOOKUP_POLL_INTERVAL);
The route using this should poll once a day (we will add CronScheduledRoutePolicy soon) and fetch a complete table (view). All the data is converted to csv with a custom processor and sent via a custom component to proprietary software. The table has 5 columns (small strings) and around 20M entries.
I don't know if there is a memory issue. But i know on my local machine 3GB isn't enough. Is there a way to approximate the memory footprint to know if a certain amount of Ram would be enough?
thanks in advance
maxMessagesPerPoll will help you get the result in batches

I built an API in nodejs+express that allows reactjs clients to upload CSV files(maximum size is atmost 1GB) to the server.
I also wrote another API which when given the filename and row numbers in an array (ie array of row numbers ) as input, it selects the rows corresponding to the row numbers, from the previously stored files and writes it to another result file (writeStream).
Then th resultant file is piped back to the client(all via streaming).
Currently as you see I am using files(basically nodejs' read and write streams) to asynchronously manage this.
But I have faced srious latency (only 2 cores are used) and some memory leak (900mb consumption) when I have 15 requests, each supplying about 600 rows to retrieve from files of size approximately 150mb.
I also have planned an alternate design.
Basically, I will store the entire file as a SQL Table with row numbers as primary indexed key.
I will convert the user inputted array of row numbrs to a another table using sql unnest and then join both these tables to get the rows needed.
Then I will supply back the resultant table as a csv file to the client.
Would this architecture be better than the previous architecture?
Any suggestions from devs is highly appreciated.
Thanks.
Use the client to do all the heavy lifting by using the XLSX package for any manipulation of content. Then have API to save information about the transaction. This will remove upload to server and download from the server and help you provide better experience.
We use Chronicle Map as a persisted storage. As we have new data arriving all the time, we continue to put new data into the map. Thus we cannot predict the correct value for net.openhft.chronicle.map.ChronicleMapBuilder#entries(long). Chronicle 3 will not break when we put more data than expected, but will degrade performance. So we would like to recreate this map with new configuration from time to time.
Now it the real question: given a Chronicle Map file, how can we know which configuration was used for that file? Then we can compare it with actual amount of data (source of this knowledge is irrelevant here) and recreate a map if needed.
entries() is a high-level config, that is not stored internally. What is stored internally is the number of segments, expected number of entries per segment, and the number of "chunks" allocated in the segment's entry space. They are configured via ChronicleMapBuilder.actualSegments(), entriesPerSegment() and actualChunksPerSegmentTier() respectively. However, there is no way at the moment to query the last two numbers from the created ChronicleMap, so it doesn't help much. (You can query the number of segments via ChronicleMap.segments().)
You can contribute to Chronicle-Map by adding getters to ChronicleMap to expose those configurations. Or, you need to store the number of entries separately, e. g. in a file along with the ChronicleMap persisted file.
Hi i am new to the BigQuery, if i need to fetch a very large set of data, say more than 1 GB, how can i break it into smaller pieces for quicker processing? i will need to process the result and dump it into a file or elasticsearch. i need to find a efficient way to handle it. i tried with the QueryRequest.setPageSize option, but that does't seem to work. I set 100 and it doesn't seem to break on every 100 record i put this line to see how many record i get back before i turn to a new page
result = result.getNextPage();
it displays at random number of records. sometimes at 1000, sometimes at 400, etc.
thanks
Not sure if this helps you but in our project we have something that seems to be similar: we process lots of data in BigQuery and need to use the final result for later usage (it contains roughly 15 Gbs for us when compressed).
What we did was to first save the results to a table with AllowLargeResults set to True and then export the result by compressing it into cloud storage using the Python API.
It automatically breaks the results into several files.
After that we have a Python script that downloads concurrently all files, reads through the whole thing and builds some matrices for us.
I don't quite remember how long it takes to download all the files, I think it's around 10 minutes. I'll try to confirm this one.
I used to work with SQL like MySQL, Postgres or MSSQL.
Now I want to play with Redis. I'm working on a little home project, that I think is the best choice for starting using Redis.
I have a machine that reads temperature (indoor and outdoor) and humidity. I need to store the readings into Redis. Can you help me to understand the best data structure to do so?
Other than this data I need to store the time (ex. unix timestamp) of the temperature reading for use plotting a graphic.
I installed Redis read the documentation, so I understand the commands and data types.
Since this is your first Redis project and it's a home project, I'd be careful about being to careful. Here's a couple ways to consider designing it (NOTE: I only dug deep into REDIS this past weekend so hopefully others will weigh in).
IDEA 1:
Four ordered sets
KEY for sets are "indoor_temps", "outdoor_temps", "indoor_humidity", "outdoor_humidity"
VALUES are the temperatures / humidities
SCORE is the date stored as EPOCH
IDEA 2:
Four types of keys (best shown by example)
datetime_key = /year:2014/month:07/day:12/hour:07/minute:32/second:54
type_keys = [indoor_temps, outdoor_temps, indoor_humidity, outdoor_humidity]
keys are of form type + "/" + datetime_key
values are the temp and humidity itself
You probably want to implement some initial design and then work with the data immediately - graph it, do stats, etc. Whatever you plan to do with it. That will expose flaws and if they are major, flush the database and try again. These designs should really only take ~1 hour to implement since the only thing you're really changing is a few Redis commands and some string manipulation to convert the data to keys.
I like Tony's suggestions, but I'll also throw out another possibility.
4 lists
keys are "indoor_temps", "outdoor_temps", "indoor_humidity", "outdoor_humidity"
values are of the form < timestamp >_< reading > ie.( "1403197981_27.2" )
Push items onto the front of the list using LPUSH. Get a set of readings using LRANGE. The list will always be ordered by the time of the reading. Obviously split the value on "_" to get your time and reading...
In all honesty, this will give the same properties as Tony's first example, with slightly worse lookup performance, but better memory usage. I'm guessing for this project you'll be neither memory, nor CPU constrained, so the choice is probably not an issue. That said, if you expect to be saving 100's of thousands or more readings, I would suggest the list unless you want to consume a large portion of your system's memory.
Also, it's a good idea to call EXPIRE on your entries with some reasonable TTL that encompasses the length of time you want to save the readings for. If your plan is to have them live in perpetuity then you may want to look at backing them up to a disk DB over time, and just use Redis as a quick lookup cache for recent readings.
Thank to all answer, I choose this strucure:
4 lists: tempIN, tempOut, humidIN and humidOUT
values are: [value]:[timestamp]. For example: "25.4:1403615247"
As suggested from wallacer i want to backup old entries out from Redis.
For main frontend i need only last two days of sample.
For example i can create Redis RDB file snapshot and "trim" the live lists. This solution is not convenient in the event that, in the future you want to recover old values.
Do you have any tips on what kind of procedure to adopt to store the data? Maybe use of SQLIte DB?
I am working on an API to query a database server (Oracle in my case) to retrieve massive amount of data. (This is actually a layer on top of JDBC.)
The API I created tries to limit as much as possible the loading of every queried information into memory. I mean that I prefer to iterate over the result set and process the returned row one by one instead of loading every rows in memory and process them later.
But I am wondering if this is the best practice since it has some issues:
The result set is kept during the whole processing, if the processing is as long as retrieving the data, it means that my result set will be open twice as long
Doing another query inside my processing loop means opening another result set while I am already using one, it may not be a good idea to start opening too much result sets simultaneously.
On the other side, it has some advantages:
I never have more than one row of data in memory for a result set, since my queries tend to return around 100k rows, it may be worth it.
Since my framework is heavily based on functionnal programming concepts, I never rely on multiple rows being in memory at the same time.
Starting the processing on the first rows returned while the database engine is still returning other rows is a great performance boost.
In response to Gandalf, I add some more information:
I will always have to process the entire result set
I am not doing any aggregation of rows
I am integrating with a master data management application and retrieving data in order to either validate them or export them using many different formats (to the ERP, to the web platform, etc.)
There is no universal answer. I personally implemented both solutions dozens of times.
This depends of what matters more for you: memory or network traffic.
If you have a fast network connection (LAN) and a poor client machine, then fetch data row by row from the server.
If you work over the Internet, then batch fetching will help you.
You can set prefetch count or your database layer properties and find a golden mean.
Rule of thumb is: fetch everything that you can keep without noticing it
if you need more detailed analysis, there are six factors involved:
Row generation responce time / rate(how soon Oracle generates first row / last row)
Row delivery response time / rate (how soon can you get first row / last row)
Row processing response time / rate (how soon can you show first row / last row)
One of them will be the bottleneck.
As a rule, rate and responce time are antagonists.
With prefetching, you can control the row delivery response time and row delivery rate: higher prefetch count will increase rate but decrease response time, lower prefetch count will do the opposite.
Choose which one is more important to you.
You can also do the following: create separate threads for fetching and processing.
Select just ehough rows to keep user amused in low prefetch mode (with high response time), then switch into high prefetch mode.
It will fetch the rows in the background and you can process them in the background too, while the user browses over the first rows.
