ASF GitHub Bot commented on METRON-575: --------------------------------------- Github user nickwallen commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/incubator-metron/pull/362 It would be good to get other's opinion, but I could use time units, since you think that is more intuitive. I'm too close to the code to really know what's more intuitive. I trust you more than me at this point. ;) > State from different profiles can be co-mingled incorrectly > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: METRON-575 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METRON-575 > Project: Metron > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Nick Allen > Assignee: Nick Allen > > The ProfileBuilderBolt incorrectly assumes that it will only ever see a > single [profile, entity] pair. The bolt maintains a single StellarExecutor > that is responsible for executing the init, update, result expressions. This > assumption is incorrect as Storm's field grouping only guarantees that the > same profile/entity pairs will go to the same task. Storm does not guarantee > that a task only receives a single profile/entity pair. > The easiest fix is to maintain a cache that maps a profile/entity to its > state. This would follow what is currently done in the Join bolt. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
