[jira] [Issue Comment Deleted] (APEXMALHAR-2063) Integrate WAL to
FS WindowDataManager
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/APEXMALHAR-2063?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Chandni Singh updated APEXMALHAR-2063:
--------------------------------------
Comment: was deleted
(was: I am close to completing the implementation of all the methods supported in WindowDataManager api.
WindowDataManager API extended the StorageAgent API and I am thinking of deprecating the following methods which are not being used in any operator using WindowDataManager.
1. long[] getWindowIds(int operatorId)
2. long[] getWindowIds()
The reason to deprecate them is that the implementation to provide just the window ids is not optimal.
If all the window ids[] are expected without reading the data of those windows then we basically re-read wal files.)

> FS Window Data Manager is used to save meta-data that helps in replaying tuples every completed application window after failure. For this it saves meta-data in a file per window. Having multiple small size files on hdfs cause issues as highlighted here:
> http://blog.cloudera.com/blog/2009/02/the-small-files-problem/
> Instead FS Window Data Manager can utilize the WAL to write data and maintain a mapping of how much data was flushed to WAL each window.
> In order to use FileSystemWAL for replaying data of a finished window, there are few changes made to FileSystemWAL this is because of following:
> 1. WindowDataManager needs to reply data of every finished window. This window may not be checkpointed.
> FileSystemWAL truncates the WAL file to the checkpointed point after recovery so this poses a problem.
> WindowDataManager should be able to control recovery of FileSystemWAL.
> 2. FileSystemWAL writes to temporary files. The mapping of temp files to actual file is part of its state which is checkpointed. Since WindowDataManager replays data of a window not yet checkpointed, it needs to know the actual temporary file the data is being persisted to.
