Hi   , Chen
    “right now i am actually thinking about adding a timer(say 6min) in my 
bolt, collect all input to memory,  and write to a single file on time out...”
I think it’s  OK

    In my application , I used storm to read data from MQ .
in spout , I  package many messages(50M or have read 30 mins) into  one pack 
,and then send to bolt .

主题: Re: 答复: write to the same file in bolt?

Dongchao,
the problem is that i would not want to write each entry (very small) to hdfs, 
this will make hive loading very inefficient.(though i can do file merging in 
separate job). So ideally, i would like to write all entries within the same 6 
min to the same file.
right now i am actually thinking about adding a timer(say 6min) in my bolt, 
collect all input to memory,  and write to a single file on time out...

Hi   ,some suggestions
You  didn’t need  to “instruct data within the same hourly tenth to the same 
bolt”   , just write   the entries within the same hourly tenth(6 min) to the 
same hdfs  directory .
Because hive partition locates to one hdfs  directory ,not one hdfs file   .

主题: write to the same file in bolt?

Hey Guys,
I am using storm to read data from our socket server, entry by entry. Each 
entry has a time stamp. In my bolt, i will need to write the entries within the 
same hourly tenth(6 min) to the same hdfs file, so that later i can load them 
to hive. (with hourly tenth 6min as the partition).

In order to achieve that, i will either need
    1 instruct data within the same hourly tenth to the same bolt
or  2. share the same file writer for all bolts that deal with data within the 
same hourly tenth.

How can I achieve this? or  if there is some other approach for this problem?
Thank you very much!
Chen
