4 . Reality of working with data • The data model changes over time • Users querying the data model don’t necessarily change • Alternate query patterns for the same dataset • Data infrastructure usage needs to be simple © 2017 Bloomberg Finance L.P. All rights reserved. 

5 . Apache Phoenix • Recipes of best practices for using HBase over a familiar SQL’ish grammar • It is so much more than SQL o User defined functions for push-down o Secondary indices o Statistics collections, optimizations based on heuristics o ORM libraries o JDBC, ODBC support with Query servers o Integrations: Spark, Kafka, MR and others © 2017 Bloomberg Finance L.P. All rights reserved. 

6 . Extending Apache Phoenix • A very active and helpful community • Our ongoing work o Apache Calcite o Distributed tests and nightly performance build o Multi-DC replication o Deep paging with cursor implementation © 2017 Bloomberg Finance L.P. All rights reserved.

13 . Cursors • To support row pagination o Should support forward and backward traversal • Support required for select queries only • Data needs to be consistent during traversal © 2017 Bloomberg Finance L.P. All rights reserved. 

14 . Cursors • DECLARE tCursor CURSOR FOR SELECT * FROM TBL • OPEN tCursor • FETCH NEXT 10 ROWS FROM tCursor • FETCH PRIOR 5 ROWS FROM tCursor • CLOSE tCursor © 2017 Bloomberg Finance L.P. All rights reserved. 

15 . Implementation options • PHOENIX-2606 • Use row value constructors o Query rewrite and complex • Wrapper over available query Resultsets o Can leverage Resultsets and so relatively simple © 2017 Bloomberg Finance L.P. All rights reserved. 

16 . Cursor Lifecycle PreparedStatement statement = con.prepareStatement("DECLARE tCursor CURSOR FOR SELECT * FROM TBL"); statement.execute(); … statement = con.prepareStatement("OPEN tCursor"); statement = con.prepareStatement("FETCH NEXT FROM tCursor"); ResultSet rset = statement.execute(); while (rset.next != null) … statement = con.prepareStatement(“CLOSE tCursor"); statement.execute(); © 2017 Bloomberg Finance L.P.
