DESCRIPTION
7:30 SQL-on-Accumulo - Don Miner, ClearEdge IT Running SQL queries over data in Accumulo is easier said than done and has several nuanced design challenges that don't have clear answers. This talk will give an outline of the current state of the art in SQL-on-Accumulo technologies, while giving a realistic view on what is doable and what is not doable today.

SQL-on-Accumulo would be nice
Problem: Accumulo is just a data store We’ll have to do query somewhere else

WWHBD?(What Would HBase Do?)
8
WWHBD? - Hive
• Hive Runs in MapReduce Map col family and col qualifiers to columns Maintained by Hive community
• Impala and Shark inherit functionality from Hive
9
WWHBD? - next level
Problem: Hive, Impala, and Shark don’t know how HBase works … and don’t care
• Apache Phoenix Specifically SQL-on-HBase Currently Apache incubator project Client-embedded JDBC driver Uses series of scans and coprocessors
• Pivotal’s HAWQ and PXF PXF is external table functionality in HAWQ Native support for HAWQ: uses push down filters,
range scans, etc. to efficiently slurp data into HAWQ

SQL-on-Accumulo Status
Hive (and somewhat Impala and Shark)• Github project by Brian Femiano [1]
Doesn’t work on new versions Hasn’t been touched in 9 months Wasn’t committed into trunk
• Some rumors that some orgs have done it themselves (but no public information)
people. technology. integrity.

SQL-on-Accumulo Status
Phoenix• Discussion on mailing list last week• Some differences between iterators and
coprocessors makes this interesting
Pivotal’s HAWQ and PXF• In development• Will support visibility labels • Pushdown and optimizations with iterators
people. technology. integrity.
13
Visibility Design Problems
These problems are unique to Accumulo
• SELECT and visibility labels Assume two cells, only uniqueness is visibility…
Which do I pick in a SELECT? Timestamps have this problem, but have a logical
assumption (most recent)
• Authorizations in SQL How do you tell the execution engine which
authorizations to use? Table definition? (hard to change) SQL statement? (extend SQL language?) Based on login? (how do you downgrade?)

What are the next steps?
I guess that’s up to the community

A warning about SQL-on-Accumulo
What does SQL-on-Accumulo still suck at?*Added context for my internet viewers since this could be controversial if taken literally and I’m not talking to my slides: I’m trying to say that SQL-on-X can’t solve all of the worlds problems, but it can solve a good number of them very well. It also tees up the conversation that SQL is not the end-all-be-all… there are ways that it could be made better to adapt to “the big data use case”. Don’t take this the wrong way, SQL-on-Hadoop and SQL-on-Accumulo would be incredible useful, but it doesn’t solve 100% of the problems.
