Re: RocksDB state not cleaned up
Hi Alexis, RocksDB itself supports manual compaction API [1], and current Flink does not support to call these APIs to support periodic compactions. If Flink supports such period compaction, from my understanding, this is somehow like major compaction in HBase. I am not sure whether this is really useful for Flink as this could push data to the last level, which leads to increase the read amplification.

Re: RocksDB state not cleaned up
Cleaning up with timers should solve this. Both approaches have some advantages and disadvantages though. Timers: - No "side effects". - Can be set in event time. Deletes are regular tombstones that will get compacted later on. TTL: - Performance. This costs literally nothing compared to an extra state for timer + writing a tombstone marker. - Has "side-effects", because it works in processing time. This is just something to keep in mind eg. when bootstraping the state from historical data.

RocksDB state not cleaned up
Hi team We have a job that uses value state with RocksDB and TTL set to 1 day. The TTL update type is OnCreateAndWrite. We set the value state when the value state doesn't exist and we never update it again after the state is not empty. The key of the value state is timestamp. My understanding of such TTL settings is that the size of all SST files remains flat (let's disregard the impact space amplification brings) after 1 day as the daily data volume is more or less the same. However the RocksDB native metrics show that the SST files continue to grow since I started the job. I check the SST files in local storage and I can see SST files with age 1 months ago (when I started the job). What is the possible reason for the SST files not cleaned up?. The Flink version is 1.12.1 State backend is RocksDB with incremental checkpoint All default configuration for RocksDB Per job mode in Yarn and checkpoint to S3 Here is the code to set value state public void open(Configuration parameters) { StateTtlConfig ttlConfigClick = StateTtlConfig .newBuilder(Time.days(1)) .setUpdateType(StateTtlConfig.UpdateType.OnCreateAndWrite) .setStateVisibility(StateTtlConfig.StateVisibility.NeverReturnExpired) .cleanupInRocksdbCompactFilter(300_000) .build(); ValueStateDescriptor clickStateDescriptor = new ValueStateDescriptor<>("click", Click.class); clickStateDescriptor.enableTimeToLive(ttlConfigClick); clickState = getRuntimeContext().getState(clickStateDescriptor); StateTtlConfig ttlConfigAds = StateTtlConfig .newBuilder(Time.days(1)) .setUpdateType(StateTtlConfig.UpdateType.OnCreateAndWrite) .setStateVisibility(StateTtlConfig.StateVisibility.NeverReturnExpired) .cleanupInRocksdbCompactFilter(30_000_000) .build(); ValueStateDescriptor adsStateDescriptor = new ValueStateDescriptor<>("ads", slimAdsClass); adsStateDescriptor.enableTimeToLive(ttlConfigAds); adsState = getRuntimeContext().getState(adsStateDescriptor); } @Override public void processElement(Tuple3 tuple, Context ctx, Collector collector) throws Exception { if (tuple.f1 != null) { Click click = tuple.f1; if (clickState.value() != null) { return; } clickState.update(click); A adsFromState = adsState.value(); if (adsFromState != null) { collector.collect(adsFromState); } } else { A ads = tuple.f2; if (adsState.value() != null) { return; } adsState.update(ads); Click clickFromState = clickState.value(); if (clickFromState != null) { collector.collect(ads); } } } Here is the snippet of sst files in local storage [root@ db]# ll | head -n10 total 76040068 -rw-r- 1 hadoop yarn0 Aug 16 08:46 03.log -rw-r- 1 hadoop yarn 67700362 Aug 17 02:38 001763.sst -rw-r- 1 hadoop yarn 67698753 Aug 17 02:38 001764.sst -rw-r- 1 hadoop yarn 67699769 Aug 17 02:59 001790.sst -rw-r- 1 hadoop yarn 67701239 Aug 17 04:58 002149.sst -rw-r- 1 hadoop yarn 67700607 Aug 17 04:58 002150.sst -rw-r- 1 hadoop yarn 67697524 Aug 17 04:59 002151.sst -rw-r- 1 hadoop yarn 67700729 Aug 17 06:20 002373.sst -rw-r- 1 hadoop yarn 67700296 Aug 17 06:20 002374.sst -- Regards, Tao
