Overview

The S3 Select engine creates an efficient pipe between clients and Ceph back end nodes. The S3 Select engine works best when implemented as closely as possible to back end storage.

The S3 Select engine makes it possible to use an SQL-like syntax to select a restricted subset of data stored in an S3 object. The S3 Select engine facilitates the use of higher level, analytic applications (for example: SPARK-SQL). The ability of the S3 Select engine to target a proper subset of structed data within an S3 object decreases latency and increases throughput.

For example: assume that a user needs to extract a single column that is filtered by another column, and that these colums are stored in a CSV file in an S3 object that is several GB in size. The following query performs this extraction: select customer-id from s3Object where age>30 and age<65;

Without the use of S3 Select, the whole S3 object must be retrieved from an OSD via RGW before the data is filtered and extracted. Significant network and CPU overhead are saved by “pushing down” the query into radosgw.

The bigger the object and the more accurate the query, the better the performance of s3select.

Basic workflow

S3 Select queries are sent to RGW via AWS-CLI

S3 Select passes the authentication and permission parameters as an incoming message (POST). RGWSelectObj_ObjStore_S3::send_response_data is the entry point and handles each fetched chunk according to the object key that was input. send_response_data is the first to handle the input query: it extracts the query and other CLI parameters.

RGW executes an S3 Select query on each new fetched chunk (up to 4 MB). The current implementation supports CSV objects. CSV rows are sometimes “cut” in the middle by the limits of the chunks, and those broken-lines (the first or last per chunk) are skipped while processing the query. Such broken lines are stored and later merged with the next broken line (which belongs to the next chunk), and only then processed.

For each processed chunk, an output message is formatted according to aws specification and sent back to the client. RGW supports the following response: {:event-type,records} {:content-type,application/octet-stream} {:message-type,event}. For aggregation queries, the last chunk should be identified as the end of input.

Basic functionalities

S3select has a definite set of functionalities compliant with AWS.

The implemented software architecture supports basic arithmetic expressions, logical and compare expressions, including nested function calls and casting operators, which enables the user great flexibility.

review the below s3-select-feature-table.

Error Handling

Upon an error being detected, RGW returns 400-Bad-Request and a specific error message sends back to the client. Currently, there are 2 main types of error.

Syntax error: the s3select parser rejects user requests that are not aligned with parser syntax definitions, as described in this documentation. Upon Syntax Error, the engine creates an error message that points to the location of the error. RGW sends back the error message in a specific error response.

Processing Time error: the runtime engine may detect errors that occur only on processing time, for that type of error, a different error message would describe that. RGW sends back the error message in a specific error response.

Features Support

Currently only part of AWS select command is implemented, table below describes what is currently supported.

NULL

NULL is a legit value in ceph-s3select systems similar to other DB systems, i.e. systems needs to handle the case where a value is NULL.

The definition of NULL in our context, is missing/unknown, in that sense NULL can not produce a value on ANY arithmetic operations ( a + NULL will produce NULL value).

The Same is with arithmetic comparison, any comparison to NULL is NULL, i.e. unknown. Below is a truth table contains the NULL use-case.

A is NULL	Result (NULL=UNKNOWN)
NOT A	NULL
A OR False	NULL
A OR True	True
A OR A	NULL
A AND False	False
A AND True	NULL
A and A	NULL

s3-select function interfaces

Timestamp functions

The timestamp functionalities as described in AWS-specs is fully implemented.

to_timestamp( string ) : The casting operator converts string to timestamp basic type. to_timestamp operator is able to convert the following YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.SSSSSS+/-HH:mm , YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.SSSSSSZ , YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss+/-HH:mm , YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ssZ , YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm+/-HH:mm , YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mmZ , YYYY-MM-DDT or YYYYT string formats into timestamp. Where time (or part of it) is missing in the string format, zero’s are replacing the missing parts. And for missing month and day, 1 is default value for them. Timezone part is in format +/-HH:mm or Z , where the letter “Z” indicates Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). Value of timezone can range between -12:00 and +14:00.

extract(date-part from timestamp) : The function extracts date-part from input timestamp and returns it as integer. Supported date-part : year, month, week, day, hour, minute, second, timezone_hour, timezone_minute.

date_add(date-part, quantity, timestamp) : The function adds quantity (integer) to date-part of timestamp and returns result as timestamp. It also includes timezone in calculation. Supported data-part : year, month, day, hour, minute, second.

date_diff(date-part, timestamp, timestamp) : The function returns an integer, a calculated result for difference between 2 timestamps according to date-part. It includes timezone in calculation. supported date-part : year, month, day, hour, minute, second.

utcnow() : return timestamp of current time.

to_string(timestamp, format_pattern) : returns a string representation of the input timestamp in the given input string format.

Aggregation functions

count() : return integer according to number of rows matching condition(if such exist).

sum(expression) : return a summary of expression per all rows matching condition(if such exist).

avg(expression) : return a average of expression per all rows matching condition(if such exist).

max(expression) : return the maximal result for all expressions matching condition(if such exist).

min(expression) : return the minimal result for all expressions matching condition(if such exist).

String functions

substring(string,from,to) : substring( string from start [ for length ] ) return a string extract from input string according to from,to inputs. substring(string from ) substring(string from for)

char_length : return a number of characters in string (character_length does the same).

trim : trim ( [[leading | trailing | both remove_chars] from] string ) trims leading/trailing(or both) characters from target string, the default is blank character.

upper\lower : converts characters into lowercase/uppercase.

SQL Limit Operator

The SQL LIMIT operator is used to limit the number of rows processed by the query. Upon reaching the limit set by the user, the RGW stops fetching additional chunks.

TODO : add examples, for aggregation and non-aggregation queries.

Alias

Alias programming-construct is an essential part of s3-select language, it enables much better programming especially with objects containing many columns or in the case of complex queries.

Upon parsing the statement containing alias construct, it replaces alias with reference to correct projection column, on query execution time the reference is evaluated as any other expression.

There is a risk that self(or cyclic) reference may occur causing stack-overflow(endless-loop), for that concern upon evaluating an alias, it is validated for cyclic reference.

Alias also maintains a result cache, meaning that successive uses of a given alias do not evaluate the expression again. The result is instead returned from the cache.

With each new row the cache is invalidated as the results may then differ.

Testing

s3select contains several testing frameworks which provide a large coverage for its functionalities.

(1) Tests comparison against a trusted engine, meaning, C/C++ compiler is a trusted expression evaluator, since the syntax for arithmetical and logical expressions are identical (s3select compare to C) the framework runs equal expressions and validates their results. A dedicated expression generator produces different sets of expressions per each new test session.

(2) Compares results of queries whose syntax is different but which are semantically equivalent. This kind of test validates that different runtime flows produce an identical result on each run with a different, random dataset.

For example, on a dataset which contains a random numbers(1-1000) the following queries will produce identical results. select count(*) from s3object where char_length(_3)=3; select count(*) from s3object where cast(_3 as int)>99 and cast(_3 as int)<1000;

3. Constant dataset, the conventional way of testing. A query is processing a constant dataset, its result is validated against constant results.

Additional syntax support

S3select syntax supports table-alias select s._1 from s3object s where s._2 = ‘4’;

S3select syntax supports case insensitive Select SUM(Cast(_1 as int)) FROM S3Object;

S3select syntax supports statements without closing semicolon select count(*) from s3object

Sending Query to RGW

Any HTTP client can send an s3-select request to RGW, which must be compliant with AWS Request syntax.

When sending an s3-select request to RGW using AWS CLI, clients must follow AWS command reference. Below is an example:

aws --endpoint-url http://localhost:8000 s3api select-object-content
 --bucket {BUCKET-NAME}
 --expression-type 'SQL'
 --input-serialization
 '{"CSV": {"FieldDelimiter": "," , "QuoteCharacter": "\"" , "RecordDelimiter" : "\n" , "QuoteEscapeCharacter" : "\\" , "FileHeaderInfo": "USE" }, "CompressionType": "NONE"}'
 --output-serialization '{"CSV": {"FieldDelimiter": ":", "RecordDelimiter":"\t", "QuoteFields": "ALWAYS"}}'
 --key {OBJECT-NAME}
 --request-progress '{"Enabled": True}'
 --expression "select count(0) from s3object where int(_1)<10;" output.csv

Input Serialization

FileHeaderInfo -> (string) Describes the first line of input. Valid values are:

NONE : The first line is not a header. IGNORE : The first line is a header, but you can’t use the header values to indicate the column in an expression. it’s possible to use column position (such as _1, _2, …) to indicate the column (SELECT s._1 FROM S3OBJECT s). USE : First line is a header, and you can use the header value to identify a column in an expression (SELECT column_name FROM S3OBJECT).

QuoteEscapeCharacter -> (string) A single character used for escaping the quotation mark character inside an already escaped value.

RecordDelimiter -> (string) A single character is used to separate individual records in the input. Instead of the default value, you can specify an arbitrary delimiter.

FieldDelimiter -> (string) A single character is used to separate individual fields in a record. You can specify an arbitrary delimiter.

Output Serialization

AWS CLI example

aws s3api select-object-content –bucket “mybucket” –key keyfile1 –expression “SELECT * FROM s3object s” –expression-type ‘SQL’ –request-progress ‘{“Enabled”: false}’ –input-serialization ‘{“CSV”: {“FieldDelimiter”: “,”}, “CompressionType”: “NONE”}’ –output-serialization ‘{“CSV”: {“FieldDelimiter”: “:”, “RecordDelimiter”:”\t”, “QuoteFields”: “ALWAYS”}}’ /dev/stdout

QuoteFields -> (string) Indicates whether to use quotation marks around output fields. ALWAYS: Always use quotation marks for output fields. ASNEEDED (not implemented): Use quotation marks for output fields when needed.

RecordDelimiter -> (string) A single character is used to separate individual records in the output. Instead of the default value, you can specify an arbitrary delimiter.

FieldDelimiter -> (string) The value used to separate individual fields in a record. You can specify an arbitrary delimiter.

Scan Range Option

The scan range option to AWS-CLI enables the client to scan and process only a selected part of the object. This option reduces input/output operations and bandwidth by skipping parts of the object that are not of interest. TODO : different data-sources (CSV, JSON, Parquet)

CSV Parsing Behavior

The s3-select engine contains a CSV parser, which parses s3-objects as follows. - Each row ends with row-delimiter. - field-separator separates adjacent columns, successive instances of field separator define a NULL column. - quote-character overrides field separator, meaning that field separator is treated like any character between quotes. - escape character disables interpretation of special characters, except for row delimiter.

Below are examples of CSV parsing rules.

Feature	Description	input ==> tokens
NULL	successive field delimiter	,,1,,2, ==> {null}{null}{1}{null}{2}{null}
QUOTE	quote character overrides field delimiter	11,22,”a,b,c,d”,last ==> {11}{22}{“a,b,c,d”}{last}
Escape	escape char overrides meta-character. escape removed	11,22,str=\”abcd\”\,str2=\”123\”,last ==> {11}{22}{str=”abcd”,str2=”123”}{last}
row delimiter	no close quote, row delimiter is closing line	11,22,a=”str,44,55,66 ==> {11}{22}{a=”str,44,55,66}
csv header info	FileHeaderInfo tag	“USE” value means each token on first line is column-name, “IGNORE” value means to skip the first line

JSON

A JSON reader has been integrated with the s3select-engine, which allows the client to use SQL statements to scan and extract information from JSON documents. It should be noted that the data readers and parsers for CSV, Parquet, and JSON documents are separated from the SQL engine itself, so all of these readers use the same SQL engine.

It’s important to note that values in a JSON document can be nested in various ways, such as within objects or arrays. These objects and arrays can be nested within each other without any limitations. When using SQL to query a specific value in a JSON document, the client must specify the location of the value via a path in the SELECT statement.

The SQL engine processes the SELECT statement in a row-based fashion. It uses the columns specified in the statement to perform its projection calculation, and each row contains values for these columns. In other words, the SQL engine processes each row one at a time (and aggregates results), using the values in the columns to perform SQL calculations. However, the generic structure of a JSON document does not have a row-and-column structure like CSV or Parquet. Instead, it is the SQL statement itself that defines the rows and columns when querying a JSON document.

When querying JSON documents using SQL, the FROM clause in the SELECT statement defines the row boundaries. A row in a JSON document should be similar to how the row delimiter is used to define rows when querying CSV objects, and how row groups are used to define rows when querying Parquet objects. The statement “SELECT … FROM s3object[*].aaa.bb.cc” instructs the reader to search for the path “aaa.bb.cc” and defines the row boundaries based on the occurrence of this path. A row begins when the reader encounters the path, and it ends when the reader exits the innermost part of the path, which in this case is the object “cc”.

NOTE : The semantics of querying JSON document may change and may not be the same as the current methodology described.

TODO : relevant example for object and array values.

For CEPH S3 Select, responses can be messages of the following types:

Records message: Can contain a single record, partial records, or multiple records. Depending on the size of the result, a response can contain one or more of these messages.

Error message: Upon an error being detected, RGW returns 400 Bad Request, and a specific error message sends back to the client, according to its type.

Continuation message: Ceph S3 periodically sends this message to keep the TCP connection open. These messages appear in responses at random. The client must detect the message type and process it accordingly.
