[jira] [Updated] (KYLIN-1186) Support precise Count Distinct using
bitmap
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KYLIN-1186?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Yerui Sun updated KYLIN-1186:
-----------------------------
Attachment: KYLIN-1186-1.x-staging.2.patch
New version patch for 1.x-staging branch.
There's still one issue: the IICube seems using hllc(10) for count distinct by hardcode, so I skipped the PreciselyCountDistinctQueryTest in IIQueryTest.

> For now, kylin only support non-precise count distinct by hyperloglog.
> In our production scenario, there're strongly requirements for precise count distinct, mainly for the column of type int or bigint, such as user-id, product-id, etc.
> Implementing of precise count distinct for all types is difficult and not efficiency. However, only supporting int or bigint make this much easier. The values can be projected into a bitmap, which is easy to be compressed and stored, and easy to count.
> I've created a POC based on RoaringBitmap, proving that worked. There's some more work to be done:
> * RoaringBitmap only support int, there need a solution to support bigint;
> * Add a new measure and codec, like HyperLogLogPlusCounter, make it easy to use;
> * Add new measure on web ui, and check that whether the column type is int or bigint;
