We have a scenario to group raw records by correlation id every 3 minutes and append groupped result to some HDFS store, below is an example of our query
val df= records.readStream.format("SomeDataSource") .selectExpr("current_timestamp() as CurrentTime", "*") .withWatermark("CurrentTime", "2 minute") .groupBy(window($"CurrentTime", "3 minute"), $"CorrelationId") .agg(collect_list(col("data")) as "Records") .repartition(100, $"CorrelationId") .select($"CorrelationId", $"Records") .writeStream..... We want include delayed data even if there is processing delay in the pipeline, and have the SLA of 5 minutes meaning once any record is read into spark, we want to see the groupped output flush to hdfs within 5 minutes. So, let's say during shuffle stage (groupby) or write stage, we have a delay of 5 to 10 minutes, will we lose data due to watermark of 2 minutes here? (sometimes it is ok to break SLA but we cannot afford data loss) If so, how can we prevent data loss or track the amount of data is being dropped in this case? Note that, extending watermark to longer windows won't work in our append scenario, because aggregate data won't be output to write stage until the watermark timer is up.
