Apache Calcite: A Foundational Framework for Optimized Query Processing Over Heterogeneous Data Sources
Apache Calcite is a foundational software framework that provides query
processing, optimization, and query language support to many popular
open-source data processing systems such as Apache Hive, Apache Storm, Apache
Flink, Druid, and MapD. Calcite's architecture consists of a modular and
extensible query optimizer with hundreds of built-in optimization rules, a
query processor capable of processing a variety of query languages, an adapter
architecture designed for extensibility, and support for heterogeneous data
models and stores (relational, semi-structured, streaming, and geospatial).
This flexible, embeddable, and extensible architecture is what makes Calcite an
attractive choice for adoption in big-data frameworks. It is an active project
that continues to introduce support for the new types of data sources, query
languages, and approaches to query processing and optimization.Comment: SIGMOD'1
Impliance: A Next Generation Information Management Appliance
ably successful in building a large market and adapting to the changes of the
last three decades, its impact on the broader market of information management
is surprisingly limited. If we were to design an information management system
from scratch, based upon today's requirements and hardware capabilities, would
it look anything like today's database systems?" In this paper, we introduce
Impliance, a next-generation information management system consisting of
hardware and software components integrated to form an easy-to-administer
appliance that can store, retrieve, and analyze all types of structured,
semi-structured, and unstructured information. We first summarize the trends
that will shape information management for the foreseeable future. Those trends
imply three major requirements for Impliance: (1) to be able to store, manage,
and uniformly query all data, not just structured records; (2) to be able to
scale out as the volume of this data grows; and (3) to be simple and robust in
operation. We then describe four key ideas that are uniquely combined in
Impliance to address these requirements, namely the ideas of: (a) integrating
software and off-the-shelf hardware into a generic information appliance; (b)
automatically discovering, organizing, and managing all data - unstructured as
well as structured - in a uniform way; (c) achieving scale-out by exploiting
simple, massive parallel processing, and (d) virtualizing compute and storage
resources to unify, simplify, and streamline the management of Impliance.
Impliance is an ambitious, long-term effort to define simpler, more robust, and
more scalable information systems for tomorrow's enterprises.Comment: This article is published under a Creative Commons License Agreement
