BigQuery коннектор#

Примечание

Ниже приведена оригинальная документация Trino. Скоро мы ее переведем на русский язык и дополним полезными примерами.

The BigQuery connector allows querying the data stored in BigQuery. This can be used to join data between different systems like BigQuery and Hive. The connector uses the BigQuery Storage API to read the data from the tables.

BigQuery Storage API#

The Storage API streams data in parallel directly from BigQuery via gRPC without using Google Cloud Storage as an intermediary. It has a number of advantages over using the previous export-based read flow that should generally lead to better read performance:

Direct Streaming: It does not leave any temporary files in Google Cloud Storage. Rows are read directly from BigQuery servers using an Avro wire format.
Column Filtering: The new API allows column filtering to only read the data you are interested in. Backed by a columnar datastore, it can efficiently stream data without reading all columns.
Dynamic Sharding: The API rebalances records between readers until they all complete. This means that all Map phases will finish nearly concurrently. See this blog article on how dynamic sharding is similarly used in Google Cloud Dataflow.

Requirements#

To connect to BigQuery, you need:

To enable the BigQuery Storage Read API.
Network access from your Trino coordinator and workers to the Google Cloud API service endpoint. This endpoint uses HTTPS, or port 443.
To configure BigQuery so that the Trino coordinator and workers have permissions in BigQuery.
To set up authentication. Your authentiation options differ depending on whether you are using Dataproc/Google Compute Engine (GCE) or not.

On Dataproc/GCE the authentication is done from the machine’s role.

Outside Dataproc/GCE you have 3 options:
- Use a service account JSON key and GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS as described in the Google Cloud authentication getting started guide.
- Set bigquery.credentials-key in the catalog properties file. It should contain the contents of the JSON file, encoded using base64.
- Set bigquery.credentials-file in the catalog properties file. It should point to the location of the JSON file.

Configuration#

To configure the BigQuery connector, create a catalog properties file in etc/catalog named example.properties, to mount the BigQuery connector as the example catalog. Create the file with the following contents, replacing the connection properties as appropriate for your setup:

connector.name=bigquery
bigquery.project-id=<your Google Cloud Platform project id>

Multiple GCP projects#

The BigQuery connector can only access a single GCP project.Thus, if you have data in multiple GCP projects, You need to create several catalogs, each pointing to a different GCP project. For example, if you have two GCP projects, one for the sales and one for analytics, you can create two properties files in etc/catalog named sales.properties and analytics.properties, both having connector.name=bigquery but with different project-id. This will create the two catalogs, sales and analytics respectively.

Arrow serialization support#

This is a feature which introduces support for using Apache Arrow as the serialization format when reading from BigQuery. Please note there are a few caveats:

Using Apache Arrow serialization is enabled by default. Add --add-opens=java.base/java.nio=ALL-UNNAMED to the Trino JVM config.

Reading from views#

The connector has a preliminary support for reading from BigQuery views. Please note there are a few caveats:

Reading from views is disabled by default. In order to enable it, set the bigquery.views-enabled configuration property to true.
BigQuery views are not materialized by default, which means that the connector needs to materialize them before it can read them. This process affects the read performance.
The materialization process can also incur additional costs to your BigQuery bill.
By default, the materialized views are created in the same project and dataset. Those can be configured by the optional bigquery.view-materialization-project and bigquery.view-materialization-dataset properties, respectively. The service account must have write permission to the project and the dataset in order to materialize the view.

Fault-tolerant execution support#

The connector supports Fault-tolerant execution of query processing. Read and write operations are both supported with any retry policy.

Type mapping#

Because Trino and BigQuery each support types that the other does not, this connector modifies some types when reading or writing data. Data types may not map the same way in both directions between Trino and the data source. Refer to the following sections for type mapping in each direction.

BigQuery type to Trino type mapping#

The connector maps BigQuery types to the corresponding Trino types according to the following table:

BigQuery type to Trino type mapping#
BigQuery type	Trino type	Notes
`BOOLEAN`	`BOOLEAN`
`INT64`	`BIGINT`	`INT`, `SMALLINT`, `INTEGER`, `BIGINT`, `TINYINT`, and `BYTEINT` are aliases for `INT64` in BigQuery.
`FLOAT64`	`DOUBLE`
`NUMERIC`	`DECIMAL(P,S)`	The default precision and scale of `NUMERIC` is `(38, 9)`.
`BIGNUMERIC`	`DECIMAL(P,S)`	Precision > 38 is not supported. The default precision and scale of `BIGNUMERIC` is `(77, 38)`.
`DATE`	`DATE`
`DATETIME`	`TIMESTAMP(6)`
`STRING`	`VARCHAR`
`BYTES`	`VARBINARY`
`TIME`	`TIME(6)`
`TIMESTAMP`	`TIMESTAMP(6) WITH TIME ZONE`	Time zone is UTC
`GEOGRAPHY`	`VARCHAR`	In Well-known text (WKT) format
`JSON`	`JSON`
`ARRAY`	`ARRAY`
`RECORD`	`ROW`

No other types are supported.

Trino type to BigQuery type mapping#

The connector maps Trino types to the corresponding BigQuery types according to the following table:

Trino type to BigQuery type mapping#
Trino type	BigQuery type	Notes
`BOOLEAN`	`BOOLEAN`
`VARBINARY`	`BYTES`
`DATE`	`DATE`
`DOUBLE`	`FLOAT`
`BIGINT`	`INT64`	`INT`, `SMALLINT`, `INTEGER`, `BIGINT`, `TINYINT`, and `BYTEINT` are aliases for `INT64` in BigQuery.
`DECIMAL(P,S)`	`NUMERIC`	The default precision and scale of `NUMERIC` is `(38, 9)`.
`VARCHAR`	`STRING`
`TIMESTAMP(6)`	`DATETIME`

No other types are supported.

System tables#

For each Trino table which maps to BigQuery view there exists a system table which exposes BigQuery view definition. Given a BigQuery view example_view you can send query SELECT * example_view$view_definition to see the SQL which defines view in BigQuery.

Special columns#

In addition to the defined columns, the BigQuery connector exposes partition information in a number of hidden columns:

$partition_date: Equivalent to _PARTITIONDATE pseudo-column in BigQuery
$partition_time: Equivalent to _PARTITIONTIME pseudo-column in BigQuery

You can use these columns in your SQL statements like any other column. They can be selected directly, or used in conditional statements. For example, you can inspect the partition date and time for each record:

SELECT *, "$partition_date", "$partition_time"
FROM example.web.page_views;

Retrieve all records stored in the partition _PARTITIONDATE = '2022-04-07':

SELECT *
FROM example.web.page_views
WHERE "$partition_date" = date '2022-04-07';

Примечание

Two special partitions __NULL__ and __UNPARTITIONED__ are not supported.

SQL support#

The connector provides read and write access to data and metadata in the BigQuery database. In addition to the globally available and read operation statements, the connector supports the following features:

DELETE#

Команда DELETE с выражением WHERE работает только в случае, когда выполнение предиката может быть полностью делегировано источнику.

Procedures#

`system.execute('query')`#

Процедура execute позволяет запустить SQL запрос к источнику в неизменном виде. Данная процедура полезна, когда вам требуется воспользоваться специфичным синтаксисом источника, который недоступен в CedrusData. В отличие от табличных функций query и raw_query данная процедура позволяет запускать SQL-запросы, который не возвращают записи (например, DML и DDL команды).

Запрос из процедуры будет исполнен в источнике как есть, без дополнительных проверок доступа к конкретным объектам источника на стороне CedrusData.

Пример использования процедуры для вызова команды ALTER TABLE на источнике:

USE example.example_schema;
CALL system.execute(query => 'ALTER TABLE your_table ALTER COLUMN your_column DROP DEFAULT');

Table functions#

The connector provides specific table functions to access BigQuery.

`query(varchar) -> table`#

The query function allows you to query the underlying BigQuery directly. It requires syntax native to BigQuery, because the full query is pushed down and processed by BigQuery. This can be useful for accessing native features which are not available in Trino or for improving query performance in situations where running a query natively may be faster.

Предупреждение

Нативный запрос, переданный в источник, должен возвращать набор записей (result set). CedrusData не осуществляет проверку доступа текущего пользователя к объектам источника, задействованным в нативном запросе. Используйте нативные запросы только для чтения данных.

For example, query the example catalog and group and concatenate all employee IDs by manager ID:

SELECT
  *
FROM
  TABLE(
    example.system.query(
      query => 'SELECT
        manager_id, STRING_AGG(employee_id)
      FROM
        company.employees
      GROUP BY
        manager_id'
    )
  );

Примечание

Полиморфные табличные функции не сохраняют оригинальный порядок записей в результате запроса. Есть переданный запрос содержит запрос выражение ORDER BY, функция может вернуть записи в ином порядке. Для восстановления требуемого порядка используйте ORDER BY в запросе CedrusData.
