JIRA: KAFKA-15348 

Please keep the discussion on the mailing list rather than commenting on the wiki (wiki discussions get unwieldy fast).

Motivation

The main goal is supporting to support interactive queries in the presence of versioned state stores (KIP-889) in AK. This KIP is the successor of KIP-960 and KIP-969968
For this KIP, the following query types are considered to be implemented.  :

Range Queries

  1. key-range latest-value query
  2. key-range with lower bound latest-value query
  3. key-range with upper bound latest-value query
  4. all-keys (no bound) latest-value query
  5. key-range query with timestamp (upper) bound
  6. key-range with lower bound with timestamp (upper) bound 
  7. key-range with upper bound with timestamp (upper) bound
  8. all-keys (no bound) with timestamp (upper) bound
  9. key-range query with timestamp range
  10. key-range query with lower bound with timestamp range
  11. key-range query with upper bound with timestamp range
  12. all-keys (no bound) with timestamp range
  13. key-range query all-versions
  14. key-range query with lower bound all-versions
  15. key-range query with upper bond all-versions
  16. all-keys query (no bound) all-versions (entire store)

...

In this KIP we propose the public classes, MultiVersionedRangeQuery that will be described in the next section.  More over a method will be added to the VersionedKeyValueStore interface.

Proposed Changes

For supporting range queries, MultiVersionedRangeQuery class is used.

  • The methods are composable. The fromfromTime and asOftoTime methods specify the time range while the withLowerKeyBound and withUpperKeyBound methods specify the key bounds. 
    • If a user applies the same time limit multiple times such as MultiVersionedRangeQuery.withLowerKeyBound(k1).from(t1).from(t2), then the last one wins (it will be translated to MultiVersionedRangeQuery.withLowerKeyBound(k1).from(t2)).

    • Defining a query with time range (empty, t1] will be translated into [0, t1]
    • Defining a query with time range (t1, empty) will be translated into [t1, MAX)
    • A query with no specified time range will be translated into [0, MAX). It means that the query will return all the versions of all the records with specified key range.
  • As explained in the javadocs, the query returns all valid records within the specified time range.
    • The fromTimestampfromTime specifies the starting point. There can be records which have been inserted before the fromTimestampfromTime and are valid in the time range. 
    • The asOfTimestamptoTime specifies the ending point. Records that have been inserted at asOfTimestamptoTime are returned by the query as well.
  • The overall order of the returned records is by Key. The method orderByTimestamp() can make the overall order by timestamp.
    • The order for both key and timestamp is by default ascending. They can be changed by the methods withDescendingKeys() and withDescendingTimestamps() respectively.
  • No ordering is guaranteed for the return records.

Examples

The following example illustrates the use of the VersionedKeyQuery class to query a versioned state store.

Imagine we have the following records 

put(1, 1, time=2023-01-01T10:00:00.00Z)

put(1, null, time=2023-01-05T10:00:00.00Z)

put(2, 20, time=2023-01-10T10:00:00.00Z)

put(3, 30, time=2023-01-12T10:00:00.00Z)

put(1, 2, time=2023-01-15T10:00:00.00Z)

put(1, 3, time=2023-01-20T10:00:00.00Z)

Compatibility, Deprecation, and Migration Plan

...

The range interactive queries will be tested in versioned stored IQv2 integration test (like non-versioned range queries). Moreover , there will be unit tests where ever needed. 

Rejected Alternatives

The initial plan was to provide ordering based on key and/or timestamp, which is removed from the KIP and may be provided by subsequent KIPs based on user demand.
