Flume 1.2.0 released

By Anonymous
Listen:

The Apache Flume Team released yesterday the next large release with number 1.2.0. Here a overview about the fixes and additions (thanks Mike, I copy your overview):

Apache Flume 1.2.0 is the third release under the auspices of Apache of the so-called "NG" codeline, and our first release as a top-level Apache project! Flume 1.2.0 has been put through many stress and regression tests, is stable, production-ready software, and is backwards-compatible with Flume 1.1.0. Four months of very active development went into this release: a whopping 192 patches were committed since 1.1.0, representing many features, enhancements, and bug fixes. While the full change log can be found in the link below, here are a few new feature highlights:

* New durable file channel 
* New client API 
* New HBase sinks (two different implementations) 
* New Interceptor interface (a plugin processing API) 
* New JMX-based monitoring support

With this release - the first after evolving into a tier 1 Apache project - we've updated the website and firstly have a well written UserGuide (again thanks to Mike and Ralph for their great effort).

User-Guide: http://flume.apache.org/FlumeUserGuide.html
Api-Documention:  http://flume.apache.org/releases/content/1.2.0/apidocs/

What's the next?
Now, we got a increasing interest into a Windows version. I don't know why, but that's happen. I try to port some of the sinks into a Windows Platform - if you're a Windows Developer and you've time to spent into the project, all hands are welcome.

Deal with corrupted messages in Apache Kafka












By
























Under some strange circumstances, it can happen that a message in a Kafka topic is corrupted. This often happens when using 3rd party frameworks with Kafka. In addition, Kafka < 0.9 does not have a lock on Log.read() at the consumer read level, but does have a lock on Log.write(). This can lead to a rare race condition as described in KAKFA-2477 [1]. A likely log entry looks like this:   ERROR Error processing message, stopping consumer:  (kafka.tools.ConsoleConsumer$) kafka.message.InvalidMessageException: Message is corrupt (stored crc = xxxxxxxxxx, computed crc = yyyyyyyyyy    Kafka-Tools  Kafka stores the offset of each consumer in Zookeeper. To read the offsets, Kafka provides handy tools [2]. But you can also use zkCli.sh, at least to display the consumer and the stored offsets. First we need to find the consumer for a topic (> Kafka 0.9):  bin/kafka-consumer-groups.sh --zookeeper management01:2181 --describe --group test  Prior to Kafka 0.9, the only way to get this inform

Hive query shows ERROR "too many counters"












By


Anonymous




















A hive job face the odd " Too many counters:"  like   Ended Job = job_xxxxxx with exception 'org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.counters.LimitExceededException(Too many counters: 201 max=200)' FAILED: Execution Error, return code 1 from org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.MapRedTask Intercepting System.exit(1)     These happens when operators are used in queries ( Hive Operators ). Hive creates 4 counters per operator, max upto 1000, plus a few additional counters like file read/write, partitions and tables. Hence the number of counter required is going to be dependent upon the query.     To avoid such exception, configure " mapreduce.job.counters.max " in mapreduce-site.xml  to a value above 1000. Hive will fail when he is hitting the 1k counts, but other MR jobs not. A number around 1120 should be a good choice.    Using " EXPLAIN EXTENDED " and " grep -ri operators | wc -l " print out the used numbers of operators. Use this value to tweak the MR s

AI's False Reality: Understanding Hallucination












By
























Artificial Intelligence (AI) has leapfrogged to the poster child of technological innovation, on track to transform industries in a scale similar to the Industrial Revolution of the 1800s. But in this case, as cutting-edge technology,  AI presents its own unique challenge, exploiting our human behavior of "love to trust", we as humans face a challenge: AI hallucinations.  This phenomenon, where AI models generate outputs that are factually incorrect, misleading, or entirely fabricated, raises complex questions about the reliability and trust of AI models and larger systems. The tendency for AI to hallucinate comes from several interrelated factors. Overfitting – a condition where models become overly specialized to their training data – can lead to confident but wildly inaccurate responses when presented with novel scenarios (Guo et al., 2017). Moreover, biases embedded within datasets shape the models' understanding of the world; if these datasets are flawed or unreprese
