压缩

目的:减少sstable数量

合并多个sstable的顺序

顺序IO

SStable的样子:

再说压缩:

Cassandra中,讲新的列写入新的sstable中,那么压缩就是为了将多个sstable合并成一个。

Figure 1: adding sstables with size tiered compaction

因此,一段时间后,会有一行的许多版本会存在于多个不同的sstable中。这些版本中的每一个都可能有不同的列集合。如果sstable就这么积攒下去,读一行数据就需要多次定位到多个文件中去。

因此需要合并,合并也是高性能的,不需要随机IO,因为行也都被有序的存储在了各自的sstable中(基于primary key的顺序)。

cassnadra的大小分层压缩策略跟bigtable论文中的很像:当到达足够数量的sstable(默认4个)的时候,就进行合并。

图1中,一个绿色格子就代表一个sstable,一行就代表一次压缩合并。一旦sstable到了4个,就合并在一起。图2展示了一段时间之后的层次结构,第一层的sstable合并成第二层,第二层的会合并成第三层…

 

在频繁更新的任务中,会出现三个问题:

1、性能会不一致,因为不能确保一行到底跨越了多少个sstable。最糟糕的例子是,我们可能在每个sstable都有某一行的某些列。

2、因为无法确定到底过时的列会被合并的多块,因此可能会浪费大量的空间,尤其是很多delete的时候。

3、Space can also be a problem as sstables grow larger from repeated compactions, since an obsolete sstable cannot be removed until the merged sstable is completely written.  In the worst case of a single set of large sstable with no obsolete rows to remove, Cassandra would need 100% as much free space as is used by the sstables being compacted, into which to write the merged one.

Cassandra1.0之后引进了Leveled compaction策略,这是基于Chromium团队的levelDB的 Leveled Compaction (译者注:翻译的不是很懂)

leveled compation创建固定大小的sstable(默认5MB),他们组成了“levels”。在每一层里面,sstable们能确保不重叠。每一层都比前一层大10倍。

Figure 3: adding sstables under leveled compaction

Figure 3: adding sstables under leveled compaction

图3中,新的sstable首先加入第一层level,, L0.然后立刻合并成sstable到L1,(蓝色的),当L1满了,就合并成L2(紫色的)。Subsequent sstables generated in L1 will be compacted with the sstables in L2 with which they overlap. As more data is added, leveled compaction results in a situation like the one shown in figure 4.

Figure 4: sstables under leveled compaction after many inserts

这种方式能解决上述问题:

1、这种合并压缩能确保90%的读取都能从单个sstable中获取(假设行的大小统一)。最坏的情况是读取层的数量次。比如 10T的数据会读取7个。

2、之多10%的空间会因为过时行而浪费。

3、在compact时只需要有10*sstable大小的空间被临时使用。

 

使用:通过在创建或者更新表结构时 加入:compaction_strategy option set to LeveledCompactionStrategy.(更新也是后台的,所以对于已经存在的表,修改compact类型不影响读写)

 

由于leveled compaction要确保上面的问题,他比size-tiered compation 要花费大概两倍的io。对于写入为主的负载,这种额外的io并不会因为上面的好处带来很多收益,因为没有多少行的旧版本涉及。

设置的一些细节:Leveled compaction ignores the concurrent_compactors setting. Concurrent compaction is designed to avoid tiered compaction’s problem of a backlog of small compaction sets becoming blocked temporarily while the compaction system is busy with a large set. Leveled compaction does not have this problem, since all compaction sets are roughly the same size. Leveled compaction does honor the multithreaded_compaction setting, which allows using one thread per sstable to speed up compaction. However, most compaction tuning will still involve usingcompaction_throughput_mb_per_sec (default: 16) to throttle compaction back.

什么时候使用leveled compation呢:英文版,

数据管理

为了管理和访问数据,那么就必须知道Cassandra如何读写数据的,hinted handoff特征,与ACID的一致和不一致的地方。在Cassandra中,一致性指的是如何更新和同步一行的数据到他的所有副本上。
