-they are where data lives persistently and are the usual targets for SQL++ queries. -Datasets are typed, and the system ensures that their contents conform to their type definitions. -An Internal dataset (the default kind) is a dataset whose content lives within and is managed by the system. -It is required to have a specified unique primary key field which uniquely identifies the contained objects. -(The primary key is also used in secondary indexes to identify the indexed primary data objects.) - -Internal datasets contain several advanced options that can be specified when appropriate. -One such option is that random primary key (UUID) values can be auto-generated by declaring the field to be UUID and putting "AUTOGENERATED" after the "PRIMARY KEY" identifier. -In this case, unlike other non-optional fields, a value for the auto-generated PK field should not be provided at insertion time by the user since each object's primary key field value will be auto-generated by the system. - -Another advanced option, when creating an Internal dataset, is to specify the merge policy to control which of the -underlying LSM storage components to be merged. -(The system supports Log-Structured Merge tree based physical storage for Internal datasets.) -Currently the system supports four different component merging policies that can be chosen per dataset: -no-merge, constant, prefix, and correlated-prefix. -The no-merge policy simply never merges disk components. -The constant policy merges disk components when the number of components reaches a constant number k that can be configured by the user. -The prefix policy relies on both component sizes and the number of components to decide which components to merge. -It works by first trying to identify the smallest ordered (oldest to newest) sequence of components such that the sequence does not contain a single component that exceeds some threshold size M and that either the sum of the component's sizes exceeds M or the number of components in the sequence exceeds another threshold C. -If such a sequence exists, the components in the sequence are merged together to form a single component. -Finally, the correlated-prefix policy is similar to the prefix policy, but it delegates the decision of merging the disk components of all the indexes in a dataset to the primary index. -When the correlated-prefix policy decides that the primary index needs to be merged (using the same decision criteria as for the prefix policy), then it will issue successive merge requests on behalf of all other indexes associated with the same dataset. -The system's default policy is the prefix policy except when there is a filter on a dataset, where the preferred policy for filters is the correlated-prefix. - -Another advanced option shown in the syntax above, related to performance and mentioned above, is that a **filter** can optionally be created on a field to further optimize range queries with predicates on the filter's field. -Filters allow some range queries to avoid searching all LSM components when the query conditions match the filter. -(Refer to [Filter-Based LSM Index Acceleration](filters.html) for more information about filters.) - -An External dataset, in contrast to an Internal dataset, has data stored outside of the system's control. -Files living in HDFS or in the local filesystem(s) of a cluster's nodes are currently supported. -External dataset support allows SQL++ queries to treat foreign data as though it were stored in the system, -making it possible to query "legacy" file data (for example, Hive data) without having to physically import it. -When defining an External dataset, an appropriate adapter type must be selected for the desired external data. -(See the [Guide to External Data](externaldata.html) for more information on the available adapters.) - -The following example creates an Internal dataset for storing FacefookUserType objects. -It specifies that their id field is their primary key. - -#### Example - - CREATE INTERNAL DATASET GleambookUsers(GleambookUserType) PRIMARY KEY id; - -The next example creates another Internal dataset (the default kind when no dataset kind is specified) for storing MyUserTupleType objects. -It specifies that the id field should be used as the primary key for the dataset. -It also specifies that the id field is an auto-generated field, -meaning that a randomly generated UUID value should be assigned to each incoming object by the system. -(A user should therefore not attempt to provide a value for this field.) -Note that the id field's declared type must be UUID in this case. - -#### Example - - CREATE DATASET MyUsers(MyUserTupleType) PRIMARY KEY id AUTOGENERATED; - -The next example creates an External dataset for querying LineItemType objects. -The choice of the `hdfs` adapter means that this dataset's data actually resides in HDFS. -The example CREATE statement also provides parameters used by the hdfs adapter: -the URL and path needed to locate the data in HDFS and a description of the data format. - -#### Example - - CREATE EXTERNAL DATASET LineItem(LineItemType) USING hdfs ( - ("hdfs"="hdfs://HOST:PORT"), - ("path"="HDFS_PATH"), - ("input-format"="text-input-format"), - ("format"="delimited-text"), - ("delimiter"="|"));

- -The following example creates an open btree index called gbSendTimeIdx on the (non-predeclared) sendTime field of the GleambookMessages dataset having datetime type. -This index can be useful for accelerating exact-match queries, range search queries, and joins involving the sendTime field. - -#### Example - - CREATE INDEX gbSendTimeIdx ON GleambookMessages(sendTime: datetime?) TYPE BTREE ENFORCED; - -The following example creates a btree index called crpUserScrNameIdx on screenName, -a nested field residing within a object-valued user field in the ChirpMessages dataset. -This index can be useful for accelerating exact-match queries, range search queries, -and joins involving the nested screenName field. -Such nested fields must be singular, i.e., one cannot index through (or on) an array-valued field. - -#### Example - - CREATE INDEX crpUserScrNameIdx ON ChirpMessages(user.screenName) TYPE BTREE; - -The following example creates an rtree index called gbSenderLocIdx on the sender-location field of the GleambookMessages dataset. This index can be useful for accelerating queries that use the [`spatial-intersect` function](functions.html#spatial-intersect) in a predicate involving the sender-location field. - -#### Example - - CREATE INDEX gbSenderLocIndex ON GleambookMessages("sender-location") TYPE RTREE; - -The following example creates a 3-gram index called fbUserIdx on the name field of the GleambookUsers dataset. This index can be used to accelerate some similarity or substring maching queries on the name field. For details refer to the document on [similarity queries](similarity.html#NGram_Index). - -#### Example - - CREATE INDEX fbUserIdx ON GleambookUsers(name) TYPE NGRAM(3); - -The following example creates a keyword index called fbMessageIdx on the message field of the GleambookMessages dataset.

+they are where data lives persistently and are the usual targets for SQL++ queries. +Datasets are typed, and the system ensures that their contents conform to their type definitions. +An Internal dataset (the default kind) is a dataset whose content lives within and is managed by the system. +It is required to have a specified unique primary key field which uniquely identifies the contained objects. +(The primary key is also used in secondary indexes to identify the indexed primary data objects.) + +Internal datasets contain several advanced options that can be specified when appropriate. +One such option is that random primary key (UUID) values can be auto-generated by declaring the field to be UUID and putting "AUTOGENERATED" after the "PRIMARY KEY" identifier. +In this case, unlike other non-optional fields, a value for the auto-generated PK field should not be provided at insertion time by the user since each object's primary key field value will be auto-generated by the system. + +Another advanced option, when creating an Internal dataset, is to specify the merge policy to control which of the +underlying LSM storage components to be merged. +(The system supports Log-Structured Merge tree based physical storage for Internal datasets.) +Currently the system supports four different component merging policies that can be chosen per dataset: +no-merge, constant, prefix, and correlated-prefix. +The no-merge policy simply never merges disk components. +The constant policy merges disk components when the number of components reaches a constant number k that can be configured by the user. +The prefix policy relies on both component sizes and the number of components to decide which components to merge. +It works by first trying to identify the smallest ordered (oldest to newest) sequence of components such that the sequence does not contain a single component that exceeds some threshold size M and that either the sum of the component's sizes exceeds M or the number of components in the sequence exceeds another threshold C. +If such a sequence exists, the components in the sequence are merged together to form a single component. +Finally, the correlated-prefix policy is similar to the prefix policy, but it delegates the decision of merging the disk components of all the indexes in a dataset to the primary index. +When the correlated-prefix policy decides that the primary index needs to be merged (using the same decision criteria as for the prefix policy), then it will issue successive merge requests on behalf of all other indexes associated with the same dataset. +The system's default policy is the prefix policy except when there is a filter on a dataset, where the preferred policy for filters is the correlated-prefix. + +Another advanced option shown in the syntax above, related to performance and mentioned above, is that a **filter** can optionally be created on a field to further optimize range queries with predicates on the filter's field. +Filters allow some range queries to avoid searching all LSM components when the query conditions match the filter. +(Refer to [Filter-Based LSM Index Acceleration](../filters.html) for more information about filters.) + +An External dataset, in contrast to an Internal dataset, has data stored outside of the system's control. +Files living in HDFS or in the local filesystem(s) of a cluster's nodes are currently supported. +External dataset support allows SQL++ queries to treat foreign data as though it were stored in the system, +making it possible to query "legacy" file data (for example, Hive data) without having to physically import it. +When defining an External dataset, an appropriate adapter type must be selected for the desired external data. +(See the [Guide to External Data](../externaldata.html) for more information on the available adapters.) + +The following example creates an Internal dataset for storing FacefookUserType objects. +It specifies that their id field is their primary key. + +#### Example + + CREATE INTERNAL DATASET GleambookUsers(GleambookUserType) PRIMARY KEY id; + +The next example creates another Internal dataset (the default kind when no dataset kind is specified) for storing MyUserTupleType objects. +It specifies that the id field should be used as the primary key for the dataset. +It also specifies that the id field is an auto-generated field, +meaning that a randomly generated UUID value should be assigned to each incoming object by the system. +(A user should therefore not attempt to provide a value for this field.) +Note that the id field's declared type must be UUID in this case. + +#### Example + + CREATE DATASET MyUsers(MyUserTupleType) PRIMARY KEY id AUTOGENERATED; + +The next example creates an External dataset for querying LineItemType objects. +The choice of the `hdfs` adapter means that this dataset's data actually resides in HDFS. +The example CREATE statement also provides parameters used by the hdfs adapter: +the URL and path needed to locate the data in HDFS and a description of the data format. + +#### Example + + CREATE EXTERNAL DATASET LineItem(LineItemType) USING hdfs ( + ("hdfs"="hdfs://HOST:PORT"), + ("path"="HDFS_PATH"), + ("input-format"="text-input-format"), + ("format"="delimited-text"), + ("delimiter"="|"));

+ +The following example creates an open btree index called gbSendTimeIdx on the (non-predeclared) sendTime field of the GleambookMessages dataset having datetime type. +This index can be useful for accelerating exact-match queries, range search queries, and joins involving the sendTime field. +The index is enforced so that records that do not have the "sendTime" field or have a mismatched type on the field +cannot be inserted into the dataset. + +#### Example + + CREATE INDEX gbSendTimeIdx ON GleambookMessages(sendTime: datetime?) TYPE BTREE ENFORCED; + +The following example creates a btree index called crpUserScrNameIdx on screenName, +a nested field residing within a object-valued user field in the ChirpMessages dataset. +This index can be useful for accelerating exact-match queries, range search queries, +and joins involving the nested screenName field. +Such nested fields must be singular, i.e., one cannot index through (or on) an array-valued field. + +#### Example + + CREATE INDEX crpUserScrNameIdx ON ChirpMessages(user.screenName) TYPE BTREE; + +The following example creates an rtree index called gbSenderLocIdx on the sender-location field of the GleambookMessages dataset.
