Start using virtual tables in Apache Cassandra 4.0
|
||||
======
|
||||
What they are and how to use them.
|
||||
![Computer laptop in space][1]
|
||||
|
||||
Among the [many additions][2] in the recent [Apache Cassandra 4.0 beta release][3], virtual tables is one that deserves some attention.
|
||||
|
||||
In previous versions of Cassandra, users needed access to Java Management Extensions ([JMX][4]) to examine Cassandra details such as running compactions, clients, metrics, and a variety of configuration settings. Virtual tables removes these challenges. Cassandra 4.0 beta enables users to query those details and data as Cassandra Query Language (CQL) rows from a read-only system table.
|
||||
|
||||
Here is how the JMX-based mechanism in previous Cassandra versions worked. Imagine a user wants to check on the compaction status of a particular node in a cluster. The user first has to establish a JMX connection to run `nodetool compactionstats` on the node. This requirement immediately presents the user with a few complications. Is the user's client configured for JMX access? Are the Cassandra nodes and firewall configured to allow JMX access? Are the proper measures for security and auditing prepared and in place? These are only some of the concerns users had to contend with when dealing with in previous versions of Cassandra.
|
||||
|
||||
With Cassandra 4.0, virtual tables make it possible for users to query the information they need by utilizing their previously configured driver. This change removes all overhead associated with implementing and maintaining JMX access.
|
||||
|
||||
Cassandra 4.0 creates two new keyspaces to help users leverage virtual tables: `system_views` and `system_virtual_schema`. The `system_views` keyspace contains all the valuable information that users seek, usefully stored in a number of tables. The `system_virtual_schema` keyspace, as the name implies, stores all necessary schema information for those virtual tables.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
It's important to understand that the scope of each virtual table is restricted to its node. Any query of virtual tables will return data that is valid only for the node that acts as its coordinator, regardless of consistency. To simplify for this requirement, support has been added to several drivers to specify the coordinator node in these queries (the Python, DataStax Java, and other drivers now offer this support).
|
||||
|
||||
To illustrate, examine this `sstable_tasks` virtual table. This virtual table displays all operations on [SSTables][7], including compactions, cleanups, upgrades, and more.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
If a user were to run `nodetool compactionstats` in a previous Cassandra version, this is the same type of information that would be displayed. Here, the query finds that the node currently has one active compaction. It also displays its progress and its keyspace and table. Thanks to the virtual table, a user can gather this information quickly, and just as efficiently gain the insight needed to correctly diagnose the cluster's health.
|
||||
|
||||
To be clear, Cassandra 4.0 doesn't eliminate the need for JMX access: JMX is still the only option for querying some metrics. That said, users will welcome the ability to pull key cluster metrics simply by using CQL. Thanks to the convenience afforded by virtual tables, users may be able to reinvest time and resources previously devoted to JMX tools into Cassandra itself. Client-side tooling should also begin to leverage the advantages offered by virtual tables.

开始在 Apache Cassandra 4.0 中使用虚拟表
|
||||
======
|
||||
它们是什么以及如何使用它们。
|
||||
![Computer laptop in space][1]
|
||||
|
||||
在最近的 [Apache Cassandra 4.0 测试版][3]中的[众多新增功能][2]中，虚拟表是一个值得关注的功能。
|
||||
|
||||
在以前的 Cassandra 版本中，用户需要访问 Java 管理扩展 （[JMX][4]） 来检查 Cassandra 的细节，如运行中的压缩、客户端、度量和各种配置设置。虚拟表消除了这些挑战。Cassandra 4.0 测试版使用户能够从一个只读的系统表中以 Cassandra 查询语言 （CQL） 行的形式查询这些细节和数据。
|
||||
|
||||
以下是之前 Cassandra 版本中基于 JMX 的机制是如何工作的。想象一下，一个用户想要检查集群中某个节点的压缩状态。用户首先要建立一个 JMX 连接，在节点上运行 `nodetool compactionstats`。这个要求给用户带来了一些复杂的问题。用户的客户端是否配置了 JMX 访问？Cassandra 节点和防火墙是否配置为允许 JMX 访问？是否准备好了适当的安全和审计措施，并落实到位？这些只是用户在处理 Cassandra 以前版本时不得不面对的一些问题。
|
||||
|
||||
在 Cassandra 4.0 中，虚拟表使得用户可以利用之前配置的驱动来查询所需信息。这一变化消除了与实现和维护 JMX 访问相关的所有开销。
|
||||
|
||||
Cassandra 4.0 创建了两个新的键空间来帮助用户利用虚拟表：`system_views` 和 `system_virtual_schema`。`system_views` 键空间包含了用户查询的所有有价值的信息，有用地存储在一些表中。`system_virtual_schema` 键空间，顾名思义，存储了这些虚拟表的所有必要的模式信息。
|
||||
|
||||
![system_views and system_virtual_schema keyspaces and tables][5]
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
重要的是要明白，每个虚拟表的范围仅限于其节点。任何虚拟表查询都将返回只对作为其协调器的节点有效的数据，而不管一致性如何。为了简化这一要求，已经在几个驱动中添加了支持，以便在这些查询中指定协调器节点 （Python、DataStax Java 和其他驱动现在提供了这种支持）。
|
||||
|
||||
为了说明这一点，请检查这个 `sstable_tasks` 虚拟表。这个虚拟表显示了对 [SSTables][7] 的所有操作，包括压缩、清理、升级等。
|
||||
|
||||
![Querying the sstable_tasks virtual table][8]
|
||||
|
||||
(Ben Bromhead, [CC BY-SA 4.0][6])
|
||||
|
||||
如果用户在以前的 Cassandra 版本中运行 `nodetool compactionstats`，则会显示相同类型的信息。 在这里，查询发现该节点当前有一个活动的压缩。它还显示了它的进度以及它的键空间和表。得益于虚拟表，用户可以快速收集这些信息，并同样有效地获得正确诊断集群健康状况所需的能力。
|
||||
|
||||
需要说明的是，Cassandra 4.0 并没有去除对 JMX 访问的需求。JMX 仍然是查询某些指标的唯一选择。尽管如此，用户会欢迎简单地使用 CQL 来获取关键集群指标的能力。由于虚拟表提供的便利，用户可能会将之前投入到 JMX 工具的时间和资源重新投入到 Cassandra 本身。客户端工具也应该开始利用虚拟表提供的优势。
|
||||
|
||||
如果你对 Cassandra 4.0 测试版及其虚拟表功能感兴趣，请[试试试它][3]。
