Concepts and Terminology
|
||
|
|
========================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- **Aggregators:** A mechanism for combining records during realtime incremental indexing, Hadoop batch indexing, and in queries.
|
||
|
|
- **DataSource:** A table-like view of data; specified in a “specFile” and in a query.
|
||
|
|
- **Granularity:** The time interval corresponding to aggregation by time.
|
||
|
|
- The *indexGranularity* setting in a schema is used to aggregate input (ingest) records within an interval into a single output (internal) record.
|
||
|
|
- The *segmentGranularity* is the interval specifying how internal records are stored together in a single file.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- **Segment:** A collection of (internal) records that are stored and processed together.
|
||
|
|
- **Shard:** A unit of partitioning data across machine. TODO: clarify; by time or other dimensions?
|
||
|
|
- **specFile** is specification for services in JSON format; see [[Realtime]] and [[Batch-ingestion]]
