Export more as 10k records with Sqoop

Listen:

If you want to export more as 10k records out of a RDBMS via sqoop, you have some settings and properties you can tweak.

Parameter --num-mapper
Number of simultaneous connections that will be opened against database. Sqoop will use that many processes to export data (each process will export slice of the data). Here you have to take care about the max open connections to your RDBMS, since this can overwhelm the RDBMS easily.

Parameter --batch
Enabling batch mode on the JDBC driver. Here you use the JDBC batching mode, which queues the queries and deliver batched results

Property sqoop.export.records.per.statement
Number of rows that will be created for single insert statement, e.g. INSERT INTO xxx VALUES (), (), (), ...

Here you have to know which VALUES you want to catch, but this

Property export.statements.per.transaction
Number of insert statements per single transaction. e.g BEGIN; INSERT, INSERT, .... COMMIT

You can specify the properties (even both at the same time) in the HADOOP_ARGS section of the command line, for example:

sqoop export -Dsqoop.export.records.per.statement=X --connect ...

Why Is Customer Obsession Disappearing?

It's wild that even with all the cool tech we've got these days, like AI solving complex equations and doing business across time zones in a flash, so many companies are still struggling with the basics: taking care of their customers.The drama around Coinbase's customer support is a prime example of even tech giants messing up. And it's not just Coinbase — it's a big-picture issue for the whole industry. At some point, the idea of "customer obsession" got replaced with "customer automation," and now we're seeing the problems that came with it. "Cases" What Not to Do Coinbase, as main example, has long been synonymous with making cryptocurrency accessible. Whether you’re a first-time buyer or a seasoned trader, their platform was once the gold standard for user experience. But lately, their customer support practices have been making headlines for all the wrong reasons: Coinbase - Stuck in the Loop: Users have reported being caugh...

MySQL Scaling in 2024

When your MySQL database reaches its performance limits, vertical scaling through hardware upgrades provides a temporary solution. Long-term growth, though, requires a more comprehensive approach. This involves optimizing the database strategically and integrating complementary technologies. Caching The implementation of a caching layer, such as Memcached or Redis , can result in a notable reduction in the load and an increase ni performance at MySQL. In-memory stores cache data that is accessed frequently, enabling near-instantaneous responses and freeing the database for other tasks. For applications with heavy read traffic on relatively static data (e.g. product catalogues, user profiles), caching represents a low-effort, high-impact solution. Consider a online shop product catalogue with thousands of items. With each visit to the website, the application queries the database in order to retrieve product details. By using caching, the retrieved details can be stored in Memcached (a...

Can AI Really Code?

My upcoming novel, Catalyst , is set in a world where AI is a major player in shaping the human future. I did some research into how AI is currently being used in software development and found that it has some amazing capabilities, but also some limitations that are a bit concerning. I'd even go so far as to say that those models are a bit of a hoax. They're impressive, but they don't actually solve anything. Yes, AI coding assistants like Devin and Copilot are impressive in demos and demo videos. In reality, they're not as powerful as you'd think, but they're great for simple tasks like crafting email parsing functions or authentication flows. However, I ran into some issues when I tried to use it in more complex situations. When I asked the AI to " write a connector from a database to ingest data into Spark ," it didn't understand and made mistakes. And that is a pure, simple and so well documented task that every non-coder could do that by sim...
