[jira] [Updated] (PHOENIX-3689) Not determinist order by with limit

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-3689?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Arthur updated PHOENIX-3689:
----------------------------
    Description: 
The following request does not return the last value of table TT:
select * from TT order by dt desc limit 1;
Adding a 'group by dt' clause gets back the good result.

I noticed that an order by with 'limit 10' returns a merge of 10 results from each region and not 10 results of the whole request.

So 'order by' is not determinist. It is a bug or a feature ?

Here is my DDL:
{noformat}
CREATE TABLE TT (dt timestamp NOT NULL, message bigint NOT NULL, id varchar(20) NOT NULL, version varchar CONSTRAINT PK PRIMARY KEY (dt, message, id));
{noformat}

The issue occurs with a lot of data. I think the 'order by' clause is done by region and not for the whole result, so limit 1 returns the first region that answers and phoenix cache it. With only one region, this does not occur.

This script generate enough data to throw the issue:
{code}
#!/usr/bin/python

import string
from datetime import datetime, timedelta

dt = datetime(2017, 1, 1, 3)
with open('data.csv', 'w') as file:
        for i in range(0, 10000000):
                newdt = dt + timedelta(microseconds=i*10000)
                file.write("{};{};{};\n".format(datetime.strftime(newdt, "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S.%f"), 91 if i  % 10  == 0 else 100, str(i).zfill(20)))
{code}

With this data set, the last data is : 2017-01-02 06:46:39.990000

Result with order by clause is not the last value:
{noformat}
select dt from TT order by dt desc limit 1;
+--------------------------+
|            DT            |
+--------------------------+
| 2017-01-01 07:54:40.730  |
{noformat}

Correct result is given when using group by, but I need to get all columns.
{noformat}
select dt from TT group by dt order by dt  desc limit 1;
+--------------------------+
|            DT            |
+--------------------------+
| 2017-01-02 06:46:39.990  |
+--------------------------+
{noformat}

I use a subquery as a workaroud, but performance are not good.
{noformat}
select * from TT where dt = ANY(select dt from TT group by dt order by dt desc limit 1);
+--------------------------+----------+-----------------------+----------+
|            DT            | MESSAGE  |          ID           | VERSION  |
+--------------------------+----------+-----------------------+----------+
| 2017-01-02 06:46:39.990  | 100      | 00000000000009999999  |          |
