Release1.16


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

This FLIP is a joint work of initially proposed by Yuan Zhu (zstraw@163.com), and finished by Qingsheng Ren (partial caching part) and Alexander Smirnov (full caching part).


Table of Contents

Motivation

...

In order to address the issues above, we propose here to define a unified abstraction for lookup source cache and its related metrics.

Proposed Changes

We'd like to split the proposal into two kinds of caching mode: partial caching and full caching.

Partial caching

Partial caching loads data into the cache along with the access to the external system. If the key to lookup does not exist in the cache, a lookup action to the external system will be triggered and the lookup result will be stored in the cache for further loading. Users and lookup table developers are able to config the eviction policy and maximum size of the cache.

In order to support partial caching, we propose to introduce several new interfaces to simplify the work for developers to implement lookup table functions and enable cache:

...

Top-level APIs

In order to clarify the semantic of lookup, we'd like to introduce some top-level APIs for general lookup operations without caching:

  • LookupFunction / AsyncLookupFunction, an extended version of TableFunction to make the API more straight forward.
  • LookupFunctionProvider / AsyncLookupProvider, serve as the creator of LookupFunction / AsyncLookupFunction in table source

And APIs related to the cache:

  • LookupCache, defining the cache used in lookup table.
  • DefaultLookupCache a default implementation of a cache that suitable for most use cases.
  • CacheMetricGroup, defining metrics should be reported by the cache.

Partial and Full Caching

More specifically,  we'd like to provide public interfaces for the most 2 common cases to lookup source developers, which are named as partial and full caching.

Partial caching

Partial caching loads data into the cache along with the access to the external system. If the key to lookup does not exist in the cache, a lookup action to the external system will be triggered and the lookup result will be stored in the cache for further loading. Users and lookup table developers are able to config the eviction policy and maximum size of the cache.

In order to support partial caching, we propose to introduce 2 new interfaces:

...

  • PartialCachingLookupProvider / AsyncPartialCachingLookupProvider, as the API interacting with table source to get LookupFunction and LookupCacheFactoryLookupCache.

The cache serves as a component in LookupJoinRunner, and would be pluggable by specifying LookupCacheFactory in LookupFunctionProvider. The developer of a lookup table needs to define a LookupFunctionProvider / AsyncLookupProvider in their implementation of LookupTableSource to specify the LookupFunction and the factory of the cache, then the planner will take over the cache factory, the constructor of the provider. The planner will take over the lookup function and the cache created from the provider and pass it to the LookupJoinRunner, and the . The cache will be instantiated during the runtime execution and loading operations via lookup function if there's a cache miss.

Full Caching

If the size of lookup table is relatively small to fit into the memory, and the lookup table doesn't change frequently, it'll be more efficient to load all entries of the lookup table into the cache to reduce network I/O, and refresh the table periodically.  We'd like to name this use case as "full cache". Logically the reload operation is a kind of scan, so we'd like to reuse the ScanRuntimeProvider so that developers could reuse the scanning logic implemented in Source / SourceFunction / InputFormat. Considering the complexity of Source API, we'd like to support SourceFunction and InputFormat API first. Supporting Source API might require new topology and will be discussed later in another FLIP.

...

  • FullCachingLookupProvider, for reusing the ability of scanning.
  • FullCachingReloadTriggerCacheReloadTrigger, for customizing reloading strategies of all entries in the full cache.

Public Interfaces

Lookup Functions

  •  

Also As the usage of TableFunction interface is not quite straight forward to lookup table developers, we'd like to provide two default implementations of CacheReloadTrigger:

  • PeriodicCacheReloadTrigger, for triggering reload periodically with a specific interval
  • TimedCacheReloadTrigger, for triggering reload at the specific time and repeat with the interval in days.

Public Interfaces

Lookup Functions

As the usage of TableFunction interface is not quite straight forward to lookup table developers, we'd like to introduce a new interface for introduce a new interface for sync and async lookup tables. Caching will be only supported on LookupFunction / AsyncLookupFunction.

...

    public abstract CompletableFuture<Collection<RowData>> asyncLookup(RowData keyRow);

    /** Invokes {@link #asyncLookup} and chains futures. */
    public final void eval(CompletableFuture<Collection<RowData>> future, Object... keys) {

                        (result, exception) -> {
                            if (exception != null) {
                                future.completeExceptionally(exception);
                                return;

                        });

TableFunctionProvider / AsyncTableFunctionProvider

We'd like to deprecate these two interfaces and let developers to switch to the new LookupFunctionProvider / AsyncLookupFunctionProvider / FullCachingLookupProvider instead.

Table Options for Lookup Cache

In order to unify the usage of caching across all connectors, we'd like to introduce some common table options, which are defined under class LookupOptions. Note that these options are not required to implement by all connectors. 

{
		// Register periodic reload task
    }

    @Override
    public void close() throws Exception {
		// Dispose resources
    }
}

Table Options for Lookup Cache

In order to unify the usage of caching across all connectors, we'd like to introduce some common table options, which are defined under class LookupOptions. Note that these options are not required to implement by all connectors. 

OptionTypeDescriptions
lookup.cacheEnum of NONE, PARTIAL and FULL

The caching strategy for this lookup table.

NONE: Do not use cache

Partial: Use partial caching mode

FULL: Use full caching mode

lookup.max-retriesIntegerThe maximum allowed retries if a lookup operation fails
lookup.partial-cache.expire-after-accessDurationDuration to expire an entry in the cache after accessing
lookup.partial-cache.expire-after-writeDurationDuration to expire an entry in the cache after writing
lookup.partial-cache.cache-missing-keyBooleanWhether to store an empty value into the cache if the lookup key doesn't match any rows in the table
lookup.partial-cache.max-rowsLongThe maximum number of rows to store in the cache
lookup.full-cache.reload-strategyEnum of PERIODIC and TIMED

The reload strategy for the full cache scenario.

PERIODIC: Use PeriodicCacheReloadTrigger

TIMED: Use TimedCacheReloadTrigger

lookup.full-cache.periodic-reload.intervalDurationDuration to trigger reload in the PeriodicCacheReloadTrigger
lookup.full-cache.periodic-reload.schedule-modeEnum of FIXED_DELAY and FIXED_RATEThe periodically schedule mode of reloading in the PeriodicCacheReloadTrigger
lookup.full-cache.timed-reload.iso-timeString

Time in ISO-8601 format when cache needs to be reloaded. Time can be specified either with timezone or without timezone (target JVM local timezone will be used). See formatter ISO_TIME.

lookup.full-cache.timed-reload.interval-in-daysInteger

The interval in days to trigger the reload at the specified time

Cache Metrics

It is important to mention that a cache implementation does not have to report all the defined metrics. But if a cache reports a metric of the same semantic defined below, the implementation should follow the convention.
