Hi Ben, To your first question about `CREATE TABLE` syntax with Kudu/Spark SQL, I do not think we support that at this point. I haven't looked deeply into it, but we may hit issues specifying Kudu-specific options (partitioning, column encoding, etc.). Probably issues that can be worked through eventually, though. If you are interested in contributing to Kudu, this is an area that could obviously use improvement! Most or all of our Spark features have been completely community driven to date.
> I am assuming that more Spark support along with semantic changes below > will be incorporated into Kudu 0.9.1. > As a rule we do not release new features in patch releases, but the good news is that we are releasing regularly, and our next scheduled release is for the August timeframe (see JD's roadmap <https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/1a3b949e715a74d7f26bd9c102247441a06d16d077324ba39a662e2a@1455234076@%3Cdev.kudu.apache.org%3E> email about what we are aiming to include). Also, Cloudera does publish snapshot versions of the Spark connector here <https://repository.cloudera.com/cloudera/cloudera-repos/org/kududb/>, so the jars are available if you don't mind using snapshots. > Anyone know of a better way to make unique primary keys other than using > UUID to make every row unique if there is no unique column (or combination > thereof) to use. > Not that I know of. In general it's pretty rare to have a dataset without a natural primary key (even if it's just all of the columns), but in those cases UUID is a good solution. > This is what I am using. I know auto incrementing is coming down the line > (don’t know when), but is there a way to simulate this in Kudu using Spark > out of curiosity? > To my knowledge there is no plan to have auto increment in Kudu. Distributed, consistent, auto incrementing counters is a difficult problem, and I don't think there are any known solutions that would be fast enough for Kudu (happy to be proven wrong, though!). - Dan > > Thanks, > Ben > > On Jun 14, 2016, at 6:08 PM, Dan Burkert <d...@cloudera.com> wrote: > > I'm not sure exactly what the semantics will be, but at least one of them > will be upsert.
