When you create the Uniq table, you can specify the mapping of sequence column to other columns.
You no longer need to specify mapping column when importing.
Invalidate catalog/db/table cache when doing
refresh catalog/db/table.
Tested table with 10000 partitions. The refresh operation will cost about 10-20 ms.
Support Aliyun DLF
Support data on s3-compatible object storage, such as aliyun oss.
Refactor some interface of catalog, to make it more tidy.
Fix bug that the default text format field delimiter of hive should be \x01
Add a new class PooledHiveMetaStoreClient to wrap the IMetaStoreClient.
## Design
### Trigger
Every time when a rowset writer produces more than N (e.g. 10) segments, we trigger segment compaction. Note that only one segment compaction job for a single rowset at a time to ensure no recursing/queuing nightmare.
### Target Selection
We collect segments during every trigger. We skip big segments whose row num > M (e.g. 10000) coz we get little benefits from compacting them comparing our effort. Hence, we only pick the 'Longest Consecutive Small" segment group to do actual compaction.
### Compaction Process
A new thread pool is introduced to help do the job. We submit the above-mentioned 'Longest Consecutive Small" segment group to the pool. Then the worker thread does the followings:
- build a MergeIterator from the target segments
- create a new segment writer
- for each block readed from MergeIterator, the Writer append it
### SegID handling
SegID must remain consecutive after segment compaction.
If a rowset has small segments named seg_0, seg_1, seg_2, seg_3 and a big segment seg_4:
- we create a segment named "seg_0-3" to save compacted data for seg_0, seg_1, seg_2 and seg_3
- delete seg_0, seg_1, seg_2 and seg_3
- rename seg_0-3 to seg_0
- rename seg_4 to seg_1
It is worth noticing that we should wait inflight segment compaction tasks to finish before building rowset meta and committing this txn.
There are several configs related to tcmalloc, users do know how to config them. Actually users just want two modes, performance or compact, in performance mode, users want doris run query and load quickly while in compact mode, users want doris run with less memory usage.
If we want to config tcmalloc individually, we can use env variables which are supported by tcmalloc.
