Direct Known Subclasses:
KVInputFormat

public abstract class KVInputFormatBase<K,V> extends InputFormat<K,V>
This is the base class for Oracle NoSQL Database InputFormat classes. Keys and Value types are determined by the specific subclass.

Parameters may be passed using either the static setters on this class or through the Hadoop JobContext configuration parameters. The following parameters are recognized:

  • oracle.kv.kvstore - the KV Store name for this InputFormat to operate on. This is equivalent to the setKVStoreName(java.lang.String) method.
  • oracle.kv.hosts - one or more hostname:port pairs separated by commas naming hosts in the KV Store. This is equivalent to the setKVHelperHosts(java.lang.String[]) method.
  • oracle.kv.batchSize - Specifies the suggested number of keys to fetch during each network round trip by the InputFormat. If 0, an internally determined default is used. This is equivalent to the setBatchSize(int) method.
  • oracle.kv.parentKey - Specifies the parent key whose "child" KV pairs are to be returned by the InputFormat. null will result in fetching all keys in the store. If non-null, the major key path must be a partial path and the minor key path must be empty. This is equivalent to the setParentKey(oracle.kv.Key) method.
  • oracle.kv.subRange - Specifies a sub range to further restrict the range under the parentKey to the major path components in this sub range. It may be null. This is equivalent to the setSubRange(oracle.kv.KeyRange) method.
  • oracle.kv.depth - Specifies whether the parent and only children or all descendents are returned. If null, Depth.PARENT_AND_DESCENDENTS is implied. This is equivalent to the setDepth(oracle.kv.Depth) method.
  • oracle.kv.consistency - Specifies the read consistency associated with the lookup of the child KV pairs. Version- and Time-based consistency may not be used. If null, the default consistency is used. This is equivalent to the setConsistency(oracle.kv.Consistency) method.
  • oracle.kv.timeout - Specifies an upper bound on the time interval for processing a particular KV retrieval. A best effort is made to not exceed the specified limit. If zero, the default request timeout is used. This value is always in milliseconds. This is equivalent to the setTimeout(long) and setTimeoutUnit(java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit) methods.

Internally, the KVInputFormatBase class utilizes KVStore.storeIterator to retrieve records. You should refer to the javadoc for that method for information about the various parameters.

KVInputFormatBase creates one split per Oracle NoSQL DB partition. The location value for each split is an array of hosts holding the partition. If the consistency passed to KVInputFormatBase is NONE_REQUIRED (the default), then InputSplit.getLocations() will return an array of the names of the master and the replica(s) which contain the partition. Alternatively, if the consistency is NONE_REQUIRED_NO_MASTER, then the array returned will contain only the names of the replica(s); not the master. Finally, if the consistency is ABSOLUTE, then the array returned will contain only the name of the master. This means that if Hadoop job trackers are running on the nodes named in the returned location array, Hadoop will generally attempt to run the subtasks for a particular partition on those nodes where the data is stored and replicated. Hadoop and Oracle NoSQL DB administrators should be careful about co-location of Oracle NoSQL DB and Hadoop processes since they may compete for resources.

Partitions in Oracle NoSQL DB are considered to be roughly equal in size; therefore InputSplit.getLength() always returns 1.

A simple example demonstrating the Oracle NoSQL DB Hadoop oracle.kv.hadoop.InputFormat class reading data from Hadoop in a Map/Reduce job and counting the number of records for each major key in the store can be found in the KVHOME/examples/hadoop directory. The javadoc for that program describes the simple Map/Reduce processing as well as how to invoke the program in Hadoop.

  • Method Details

    • setKVStoreName

      public static void setKVStoreName(String kvStoreName)
      Set the KV Store name for this InputFormat to operate on. This is equivalent to passing the oracle.kv.kvstore Hadoop property.
      Parameters:
      kvStoreName - the KV Store name
    • setKVHelperHosts

      public static void setKVHelperHosts(String[] kvHelperHosts)
      Set the KV Helper host:port pair(s) for this InputFormat to operate on. This is equivalent to passing the oracle.kv.hosts Hadoop property.
      Parameters:
      kvHelperHosts - array of hostname:port strings of any hosts in the KV Store.
    • setBatchSize

      public static void setBatchSize(int batchSize)
      Specifies the suggested number of keys to fetch during each network round trip by the InputFormat. If 0, an internally determined default is used. This is equivalent to passing the oracle.kv.batchSize Hadoop property.
      Parameters:
      batchSize - the suggested number of keys to fetch during each network round trip.
    • setParentKey

      public static void setParentKey(Key parentKey)
      Specifies the parent key whose "child" KV pairs are to be returned by the InputFormat. null will result in fetching all keys in the store. If non-null, the major key path must be a partial path and the minor key path must be empty. This is equivalent to passing the oracle.kv.parentKey Hadoop property.
