[jira] [Commented] (NUTCH-628) Host database to keep track of host-level information

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-628?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13058993#comment-13058993 ] 

Lewis John McGibbney commented on NUTCH-628:
--------------------------------------------

>From previous discussion on this ticket I think there is evidence that this class has some useful credentials. The problem is that the issue is still open and that there is no entry for this in current /bin/nutch script. Is it worth while providing a patch for this?

> Nutch would benefit from having a DB with per-host/domain/TLD information.  For instance, Nutch could detect hosts that are timing out, store information about that in this DB.  Segment/fetchlist Generator could then skip such hosts, so they don't slow down the fetch job.  Another good use for such a DB is keeping track of various host scores, e.g. spam score.
> From the recent thread on nutch-user@lucene:
> Otis asked:
> > While we are at it, how would one go about implementing this DB, as far as its structures go?
> Andrzej said:
> The easiest I can imagine is to use something like <Text, MapWritable>.
> This way you could store arbitrary information under arbitrary keys.
> I.e. a single database then could keep track of aggregate statistics at
> different levels, e.g. TLD, domain, host, ip range, etc. The basic set
> of statistics could consist of a few predefined gauges, totals and averages.
