In this section, we describe how Kafka Streams works underneath the covers. + </p> + + <p> + The picture below shows the anatomy of an application that uses the Kafka Streams library. Let's walk through some details. + </p> + <img class="centered" src="/{{version}}/images/streams-architecture-overview.jpg" style="width:750px"> + + <h3><a id="streams_architecture_tasks" href="#streams_architecture_tasks">Stream Partitions and Tasks</a></h3> + + <p> + The messaging layer of Kafka partitions data for storing and transporting it. Kafka Streams partitions data for processing it. + In both cases, this partitioning is what enables data locality, elasticity, scalability, high performance, and fault tolerance. + Kafka Streams uses the concepts of <b>partitions</b> and <b>tasks</b> as logical units of its parallelism model based on Kafka topic partitions. + There are close links between Kafka Streams and Kafka in the context of parallelism: + </p> + + <ul> + <li>Each <b>stream partition</b> is a totally ordered sequence of data records and maps to a Kafka <b>topic partition</b>.</li> + <li>A <b>data record</b> in the stream maps to a Kafka <b>message</b> from that topic.</li> + <li>The <b>keys</b> of data records determine the partitioning of data in both Kafka and Kafka Streams, i.e., how data is routed to specific partitions within topics.</li> + </ul> + + <p> + An application's processor topology is scaled by breaking it into multiple tasks. + More specifically, Kafka Streams creates a fixed number of tasks based on the input stream partitions for the application, + with each task assigned a list of partitions from the input streams (i.e., Kafka topics). The assignment of partitions to tasks + never changes so that each task is a fixed unit of parallelism of the application. Tasks can then instantiate their own processor topology + based on the assigned partitions; they also maintain a buffer for each of its assigned partitions and process messages one-at-a-time from + these record buffers. As a result stream tasks can be processed independently and in parallel without manual intervention. + </p> + + <p> + It is important to understand that Kafka Streams is not a resource manager, but a library that ârunsâ anywhere its stream processing application runs. + Multiple instances of the application are executed either on the same machine, or spread across multiple machines and tasks can be distributed automatically + by the library to those running application instances. The assignment of partitions to tasks never changes; if an application instance fails, all its assigned + tasks will be automatically restarted on other instances and continue to consume from the same stream partitions. + </p> + + <p> + The following diagram shows two tasks each assigned with one partition of the input streams. + </p> + <img class="centered" src="/{{version}}/images/streams-architecture-tasks.jpg" style="width:400px"> + <br> + + <h3><a id="streams_architecture_threads" href="#streams_architecture_threads">Threading Model</a></h3> + + <p> + Kafka Streams allows the user to configure the number of <b>threads</b> that the library can use to parallelize processing within an application instance. + Each thread can execute one or more tasks with their processor topologies independently. For example, the following diagram shows one stream thread running two stream tasks. + </p> + <img class="centered" src="/{{version}}/images/streams-architecture-threads.jpg" style="width:400px"> + + <p> + Starting more stream threads or more instances of the application merely amounts to replicating the topology and having it process a different subset of Kafka partitions, effectively parallelizing processing. + It is worth noting that there is no shared state amongst the threads, so no inter-thread coordination is necessary. This makes it very simple to run topologies in parallel across the application instances and threads. + The assignment of Kafka topic partitions amongst the various stream threads is transparently handled by Kafka Streams leveraging <a href="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Kafka+Client-side+Assignment+Proposal";>Kafka's coordination</a> functionality. + </p> + + <p> + As we described above, scaling your stream processing application with Kafka Streams is easy: you merely need to start additional instances of your application, + and Kafka Streams takes care of distributing partitions amongst tasks that run in the application instances. You can start as many threads of the application + as there are input Kafka topic partitions so that, across all running instances of an application, every thread (or rather, the tasks it runs) has at least one input partition to process. + </p> + <br> + + <h3><a id="streams_architecture_state" href="#streams_architecture_state">Local State Stores</a></h3> + + <p> + Kafka Streams provides so-called <b>state stores</b>, which can be used by stream processing applications to store and query data, + which is an important capability when implementing stateful operations. The <a href="#streams_dsl">Kafka Streams DSL</a>, for example, automatically creates + and manages such state stores when you are calling stateful operators such as <code>join()</code> or <code>aggregate()</code>, or when you are windowing a stream. + </p> + + <p> + Every stream task in a Kafka Streams application may embed one or more local state stores that can be accessed via APIs to store and query data required for processing. + Kafka Streams offers fault-tolerance and automatic recovery for such local state stores. + </p> + + <p> + The following diagram shows two stream tasks with their dedicated local state stores. + </p> + <img class="centered" src="/{{version}}/images/streams-architecture-states.jpg" style="width:400px"> + <br> + + <h3><a id="streams_architecture_recovery" href="#streams_architecture_recovery">Fault Tolerance</a></h3> + + <p> + Kafka Streams builds on fault-tolerance capabilities integrated natively within Kafka. Kafka partitions are highly available and replicated; so when stream data is persisted to Kafka it is available + even if the application fails and needs to re-process it. Tasks in Kafka Streams leverage the fault-tolerance capability + offered by the <a href="https://www.confluent.io/blog/tutorial-getting-started-with-the-new-apache-kafka-0.9-consumer-client/";>Kafka consumer client</a> to handle failures. + If a task runs on a machine that fails, Kafka Streams automatically restarts the task in one of the remaining running instances of the application. + </p> + + <p> + In addition, Kafka Streams makes sure that the local state stores are robust to failures, too. For each state store, it maintains a replicated changelog Kafka topic in which it tracks any state updates. + These changelog topics are partitioned as well so that each local state store instance, and hence the task accessing the store, has its own dedicated changelog topic partition. + <a href="/{{version}}/documentation/#compaction">Log compaction</a> is enabled on the changelog topics so that old data can be purged safely to prevent the topics from growing indefinitely. + If tasks run on a machine that fails and are restarted on another machine, Kafka Streams guarantees to restore their associated state stores to the content before the failure by + replaying the corresponding changelog topics prior to resuming the processing on the newly started tasks. As a result, failure handling is completely transparent to the end user. + </p> + + <p> + Note that the cost of task (re)initialization typically depends primarily on the time for restoring the state by replaying the state stores' associated changelog topics. + To minimize this restoration time, users can configure their applications to have <b>standby replicas</b> of local states (i.e. fully replicated copies of the state). + When a task migration happens, Kafka Streams then attempts to assign a task to an application instance where such a standby replica already exists in order to minimize + the task (re)initialization cost.

It defines its computational logic through one or more <b>processor topologies</b>, where a processor topology is a graph of stream processors (nodes) that are connected by streams (edges).</li> + <li>A <b>stream processor</b> is a node in the processor topology; it represents a processing step to transform data in streams by receiving one input record at a time from its upstream processors in the topology, applying its operation to it, and may subsequently produce one or more output records to its downstream processors. </li> + </ul> + + There are two special processors in the topology: + + <ul> + <li><b>Source Processor</b>: A source processor is a special type of stream processor that does not have any upstream processors. It produces an input stream to its topology from one or multiple Kafka topics by consuming records from these topics and forward them to its down-stream processors.</li> + <li><b>Sink Processor</b>: A sink processor is a special type of stream processor that does not have down-stream processors. It sends any received records from its up-stream processors to a specified Kafka topic.</li> + </ul> + + <img class="centered" src="/{{version}}/images/streams-architecture-topology.jpg" style="width:400px"> + + <p> + Kafka Streams offers two ways to define the stream processing topology: the <a href="#streams_dsl"><b>Kafka Streams DSL</b></a> provides + the most common data transformation operations such as <code>map</code>, <code>filter</code>, <code>join</code> and <code>aggregations</code> out of the box; the lower-level <a href="#streams_processor"><b>Processor API</b></a> allows + developers define and connect custom processors as well as to interact with <a href="#streams_state">state stores</a>. + </p> + + <p> + A processor topology is merely a logical abstraction for your stream processing code. + At runtime, the logical topology is instantiated and replicated inside the application for parallel processing (see <a href="#streams_architecture_tasks">Stream Partitions and Tasks</a> for details). + </p> + + <h3><a id="streams_time" href="#streams_time">Time</a></h3> + + <p> + A critical aspect in stream processing is the notion of <b>time</b>, and how it is modeled and integrated. + For example, some operations such as <b>windowing</b> are defined based on time boundaries. + </p> + <p> + Common notions of time in streams are: + </p> + + <ul> + <li><b>Event time</b> - The point in time when an event or data record occurred, i.e. was originally created "at the source". <b>Example:</b> If the event is a geo-location change reported by a GPS sensor in a car, then the associated event-time would be the time when the GPS sensor captured the location change.</li> + <li><b>Processing time</b> - The point in time when the event or data record happens to be processed by the stream processing application, i.e. when the record is being consumed. The processing time may be milliseconds, hours, or days etc. later than the original event time. <b>Example:</b> Imagine an analytics application that reads and processes the geo-location data reported from car sensors to present it to a fleet management dashboard. Here, processing-time in the analytics application might be milliseconds or seconds (e.g. for real-time pipelines based on Apache Kafka and Kafka Streams) or hours (e.g. for batch pipelines based on Apache Hadoop or Apache Spark) after event-time.</li> + <li><b>Ingestion time</b> - The point in time when an event or data record is stored in a topic partition by a Kafka broker. The difference to event time is that this ingestion timestamp is generated when the record is appended to the target topic by the Kafka broker, not when the record is created "at the source". The difference to processing time is that processing time is when the stream processing application processes the record. <b>For example,</b> if a record is never processed, there is no notion of processing time for it, but it still has an ingestion time.</li> + </ul> + <p> + The choice between event-time and ingestion-time is actually done through the configuration of Kafka (not Kafka Streams): From Kafka 0.10.x onwards, timestamps are automatically embedded into Kafka messages. Depending on Kafka's configuration these timestamps represent event-time or ingestion-time. The respective Kafka configuration setting can be specified on the broker level or per topic. The default timestamp extractor in Kafka Streams will retrieve these embedded timestamps as-is. Hence, the effective time semantics of your application depend on the effective Kafka configuration for these embedded timestamps. + </p> + <p> + Kafka Streams assigns a <b>timestamp</b> to every data record + via the <code>TimestampExtractor</code> interface. + Concrete implementations of this interface may retrieve or compute timestamps based on the actual contents of data records such as an embedded timestamp field + to provide event-time semantics, or use any other approach such as returning the current wall-clock time at the time of processing, + thereby yielding processing-time semantics to stream processing applications. + Developers can thus enforce different notions of time depending on their business needs. For example, + per-record timestamps describe the progress of a stream with regards to time (although records may be out-of-order within the stream) and + are leveraged by time-dependent operations such as joins. + </p> + + <p> + Finally, whenever a Kafka Streams application writes records to Kafka, then it will also assign timestamps to these new records. The way the timestamps are assigned depends on the context: + </p> + + <ul> + <li> When new output records are generated via processing some input record, for example, <code>context.forward()</code> triggered in the <code>process()</code> function call, output record timestamps are inherited from input record timestamps directly.</li> + <li> When new output records are generated via periodic functions such as <code>punctuate()</code>, the output record timestamp is defined as the current internal time (obtained through <code>context.timestamp()</code>) of the stream task.</li> + <li> For aggregations, the timestamp of a resulting aggregate update record will be that of the latest arrived input record that triggered the update.</li> + </ul> + + <h3><a id="streams_state" href="#streams_state">States</a></h3> + + <p> + Some stream processing applications don't require state, which means the processing of a message is independent from + the processing of all other messages. + However, being able to maintain state opens up many possibilities for sophisticated stream processing applications: you + can join input streams, or group and aggregate data records. Many such stateful operators are provided by the <a href="#streams_dsl"><b>Kafka Streams DSL</b></a>. + </p> + <p> + Kafka Streams provides so-called <b>state stores</b>, which can be used by stream processing applications to store and query data. + This is an important capability when implementing stateful operations. + Every task in Kafka Streams embeds one or more state stores that can be accessed via APIs to store and query data required for processing. + These state stores can either be a persistent key-value store, an in-memory hashmap, or another convenient data structure. + Kafka Streams offers fault-tolerance and automatic recovery for local state stores. + </p> + <p> + Kafka Streams allows direct read-only queries of the state stores by methods, threads, processes or applications external to the stream processing application that created the state stores.

The <code>process</code> method is performed on each + of the received record; and the <code>punctuate</code> method is performed periodically based on elapsed time. + In addition, the processor can maintain the current <code>ProcessorContext</code> instance variable initialized in the + <code>init</code> method, and use the context to schedule the punctuation period (<code>context().schedule</code>), to + forward the modified / new key-value pair to downstream processors (<code>context().forward</code>), to commit the current + processing progress (<code>context().commit</code>), etc. + </p> + + <p> + The following example <code>Processor</code> implementation defines a simple word-count algorithm: + </p> + + <pre> + public class MyProcessor implements Processor<String, String> { + private ProcessorContext context;

Kafka's log compaction feature, for example, exploits this duality. + </p> + + <p> + A simple form of a table is a collection of key-value pairs, also called a map or associative array. Such a table may look as follows: + </p> + <img class="centered" src="/{{version}}/images/streams-table-duality-01.png"> + + The <b>stream-table duality</b> describes the close relationship between streams and tables. + <ul> + <li><b>Stream as Table</b>: A stream can be considered a changelog of a table, where each data record in the stream captures a state change of the table. A stream is thus a table in disguise, and it can be easily turned into a ârealâ table by replaying the changelog from beginning to end to reconstruct the table. Similarly, in a more general analogy, aggregating data records in a stream â such as computing the total number of pageviews by user from a stream of pageview events â will return a table (here with the key and the value being the user and its corresponding pageview count, respectively).</li> + <li><b>Table as Stream</b>: A table can be considered a snapshot, at a point in time, of the latest value for each key in a stream (a stream's data records are key-value pairs). A table is thus a stream in disguise, and it can be easily turned into a ârealâ stream by iterating over each key-value entry in the table.</li> + </ul> + + <p> + Let's illustrate this with an example. Imagine a table that tracks the total number of pageviews by user (first column of diagram below). Over time, whenever a new pageview event is processed, the state of the table is updated accordingly. Here, the state changes between different points in time â and different revisions of the table â can be represented as a changelog stream (second column). + </p> + <img class="centered" src="/{{version}}/images/streams-table-duality-02.png" style="width:300px"> + + <p> + Interestingly, because of the stream-table duality, the same stream can be used to reconstruct the original table (third column): + </p> + <img class="centered" src="/{{version}}/images/streams-table-duality-03.png" style="width:600px"> + + <p> + The same mechanism is used, for example, to replicate databases via change data capture (CDC) and, within Kafka Streams, to replicate its so-called state stores across machines for fault-tolerance. + The stream-table duality is such an important concept that Kafka Streams models it explicitly via the <a href="#streams_kstream_ktable">KStream, KTable, and GlobalKTable</a> interfaces, which we describe in the next sections. + </p> + + <h5><a id="streams_kstream_ktable" href="#streams_kstream_ktable">KStream, KTable, and GlobalKTable</a></h5> + The DSL uses three main abstractions. A <b>KStream</b> is an abstraction of a record stream, where each data record represents a self-contained datum in the unbounded data set. + A <b>KTable</b> is an abstraction of a changelog stream, where each data record represents an update. More precisely, the value in a data record is considered to be an update of the last value for the same record key, + if any (if a corresponding key doesn't exist yet, the update will be considered a create). + Like a <b>KTable</b>, a <b>GlobalKTable</b> is an abstraction of a changelog stream, where each data record represents an update. + However, a <b>GlobalKTable</b> is different from a <b>KTable</b> in that it is fully replicated on each KafkaStreams instance. + <b>GlobalKTable</b> also provides the ability to look up current values of data records by keys. + This table-lookup functionality is available through <a href="#streams_dsl_joins">join operations</a>. + + To illustrate the difference between KStreams and KTables/GlobalKTables, letâs imagine the following two data records are being sent to the stream: + + <pre> + ("alice", 1) --> ("alice", 3) + </pre> + + If these records a KStream and the stream processing application were to sum the values it would return <code>4</code>. If these records were a KTable or GlobalKTable, the return would be <code>3</code>, since the last record would be considered as an update. + + <h4><a id="streams_dsl_source" href="#streams_dsl_source">Create Source Streams from Kafka</a></h4> + + <p> + Either a <b>record stream</b> (defined as <code>KStream</code>) or a <b>changelog stream</b> (defined as <code>KTable</code> or <code>GlobalKTable</code>) + can be created as a source stream from one or more Kafka topics (for <code>KTable</code> and <code>GlobalKTable</code> you can only create the source stream + from a single topic). + </p> + + <pre> + KStreamBuilder builder = new KStreamBuilder(); + + KStream<String, GenericRecord> source1 = builder.stream("topic1", "topic2"); + KTable<String, GenericRecord> source2 = builder.table("topic3", "stateStoreName"); + GlobalKTable<String, GenericRecord> source2 = builder.globalTable("topic4", "globalStoreName"); + </pre> + + <h4><a id="streams_dsl_windowing" href="#streams_dsl_windowing">Windowing a stream</a></h4> + A stream processor may need to divide data records into time buckets, i.e. to <b>window</b> the stream by time. This is usually needed for join and aggregation operations, etc. Kafka Streams currently defines the following types of windows: + <ul> + <li><b>Hopping time windows</b> are windows based on time intervals. They model fixed-sized, (possibly) overlapping windows. A hopping window is defined by two properties: the window's size and its advance interval (aka "hop"). The advance interval specifies by how much a window moves forward relative to the previous one. For example, you can configure a hopping window with a size 5 minutes and an advance interval of 1 minute. Since hopping windows can overlap a data record may belong to more than one such windows.</li> + <li><b>Tumbling time windows</b> are a special case of hopping time windows and, like the latter, are windows based on time intervals. They model fixed-size, non-overlapping, gap-less windows. A tumbling window is defined by a single property: the window's size. A tumbling window is a hopping window whose window size is equal to its advance interval. Since tumbling windows never overlap, a data record will belong to one and only one window.</li> + <li><b>Sliding windows</b> model a fixed-size window that slides continuously over the time axis; here, two data records are said to be included in the same window if the difference of their timestamps is within the window size. Thus, sliding windows are not aligned to the epoch, but on the data record timestamps. In Kafka Streams, sliding windows are used only for join operations, and can be specified through the <code>JoinWindows</code> class.</li> + <li><b>Session windows</b> are used to aggregate key-based events into sessions. + Sessions represent a period of activity separated by a defined gap of inactivity. + Any events processed that fall within the inactivity gap of any existing sessions are merged into the existing sessions. + If the event falls outside of the session gap, then a new session will be created. + Session windows are tracked independently across keys (e.g. windows of different keys typically have different start and end times) and their sizes vary (even windows for the same key typically have different sizes); + as such session windows can't be pre-computed and are instead derived from analyzing the timestamps of the data records. + </li> + </ul> + + <p> + In the Kafka Streams DSL users can specify a <b>retention period</b> for the window. This allows Kafka Streams to retain old window buckets for a period of time in order to wait for the late arrival of records whose timestamps fall within the window interval. + If a record arrives after the retention period has passed, the record cannot be processed and is dropped. + </p> + + <p> + Late-arriving records are always possible in real-time data streams. However, it depends on the effective <a href="#streams_time">time semantics</a> how late records are handled. Using processing-time, the semantics are âwhen the data is being processedâ, + which means that the notion of late records is not applicable as, by definition, no record can be late. Hence, late-arriving records only really can be considered as such (i.e. as arriving âlateâ) for event-time or ingestion-time semantics. In both cases, + Kafka Streams is able to properly handle late-arriving records. + </p> + + <h4><a id="streams_dsl_joins" href="#streams_dsl_joins">Join multiple streams</a></h4> + A <b>join</b> operation merges two streams based on the keys of their data records, and yields a new stream. A join over record streams usually needs to be performed on a windowing basis because otherwise the number of records that must be maintained for performing the join may grow indefinitely. In Kafka Streams, you may perform the following join operations: + <ul> + <li><b>KStream-to-KStream Joins</b> are always windowed joins, since otherwise the memory and state required to compute the join would grow infinitely in size. Here, a newly received record from one of the streams is joined with the other stream's records within the specified window interval to produce one result for each matching pair based on user-provided <code>ValueJoiner</code>. A new <code>KStream</code> instance representing the result stream of the join is returned from this operator.</li> + + <li><b>KTable-to-KTable Joins</b> are join operations designed to be consistent with the ones in relational databases. Here, both changelog streams are materialized into local state stores first. When a new record is received from one of the streams, it is joined with the other stream's materialized state stores to produce one result for each matching pair based on user-provided ValueJoiner. A new <code>KTable</code> instance representing the result stream of the join, which is also a changelog stream of the represented table, is returned from this operator.</li> + <li><b>KStream-to-KTable Joins</b> allow you to perform table lookups against a changelog stream (<code>KTable</code>) upon receiving a new record from another record stream (<code>KStream</code>). An example use case would be to enrich a stream of user activities (<code>KStream</code>) with the latest user profile information (<code>KTable</code>). Only records received from the record stream will trigger the join and produce results via <code>ValueJoiner</code>, not vice versa (i.e., records received from the changelog stream will be used only to update the materialized state store). A new <code>KStream</code> instance representing the result stream of the join is returned from this operator.</li> + <li><b>KStream-to-GlobalKTable Joins</b> allow you to perform table lookups against a fully replicated changelog stream (<code>GlobalKTable</code>) upon receiving a new record from another record stream (<code>KStream</code>). + Joins with a <code>GlobalKTable</code> don't require repartitioning of the input <code>KStream</code> as all partitions of the <code>GlobalKTable</code> are available on every KafkaStreams instance. + The <code>KeyValueMapper</code> provided with the join operation is applied to each KStream record to extract the join-key that is used to do the lookup to the GlobalKTable so non-record-key joins are possible. + An example use case would be to enrich a stream of user activities (<code>KStream</code>) with the latest user profile information (<code>GlobalKTable</code>). + Only records received from the record stream will trigger the join and produce results via <code>ValueJoiner</code>, not vice versa (i.e., records received from the changelog stream will be used only to update the materialized state store). + A new <code>KStream</code> instance representing the result stream of the join is returned from this operator.</li> + </ul> + + Depending on the operands the following join operations are supported: <b>inner joins</b>, <b>outer joins</b> and <b>left joins</b>. + Their <a href="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Kafka+Streams+Join+Semantics";>semantics</a> are similar to the corresponding operators in relational databases. + + <h5><a id="streams_dsl_aggregations" href="#streams_dsl_aggregations">Aggregate a stream</a></h5> + An <b>aggregation</b> operation takes one input stream, and yields a new stream by combining multiple input records into a single output record. Examples of aggregations are computing counts or sum. An aggregation over record streams usually needs to be performed on a windowing basis because otherwise the number of records that must be maintained for performing the aggregation may grow indefinitely. + + <p> + In the Kafka Streams DSL, an input stream of an aggregation can be a <code>KStream</code> or a <code>KTable</code>, but the output stream will always be a <code>KTable</code>. + This allows Kafka Streams to update an aggregate value upon the late arrival of further records after the value was produced and emitted. + When such late arrival happens, the aggregating <code>KStream</code> or <code>KTable</code> simply emits a new aggregate value. Because the output is a <code>KTable</code>, the new value is considered to overwrite the old value with the same key in subsequent processing steps. + </p> + + <h4><a id="streams_dsl_transform" href="#streams_dsl_transform">Transform a stream</a></h4> + + <p> + Besides join and aggregation operations, there is a list of other transformation operations provided for <code>KStream</code> and <code>KTable</code> respectively. + Each of these operations may generate either one or more <code>KStream</code> and <code>KTable</code> objects and + can be translated into one or more connected processors into the underlying processor topology. + All these transformation methods can be chained together to compose a complex processor topology. + Since <code>KStream</code> and <code>KTable</code> are strongly typed, all these transformation operations are defined as + generics functions where users could specify the input and output data types. + </p> + + <p> + Among these transformations, <code>filter</code>, <code>map</code>, <code>mapValues</code>, etc, are stateless + transformation operations and can be applied to both <code>KStream</code> and <code>KTable</code>, + where users can usually pass a customized function to these functions as a parameter, such as <code>Predicate</code> for <code>filter</code>, + <code>KeyValueMapper</code> for <code>map</code>, etc: + + </p> + + <pre> + // written in Java 8+, using lambda expressions + KStream<String, GenericRecord> mapped = source1.mapValue(record -> record.get("category")); + </pre> + + <p> + Stateless transformations, by definition, do not depend on any state for processing, and hence implementation-wise + they do not require a state store associated with the stream processor; Stateful transformations, on the other hand, + require accessing an associated state for processing and producing outputs. + For example, in <code>join</code> and <code>aggregate</code> operations, a windowing state is usually used to store all the received records + within the defined window boundary so far.

You have to explicitly start the Kafka Streams thread by calling the <code>start()</code> method: + </p> + + <pre> + // Start the Kafka Streams instance + streams.start(); + </pre> + + <p> + To catch any unexpected exceptions, you may set an <code>java.lang.Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler</code> before you start the application.

<code>auto.offset.reset</code> policy per input stream/table </li> + <li> added method <code>#globalKTable()</code> to create a <code>GlobalKTable</code> </li> + </ul> + + <p> New joins for <code>KStream</code>: </p> + <ul> + <li> added overloads for <code>#join()</code> to join with <code>KTable</code> </li> + <li> added overloads for <code>#join()</code> and <code>leftJoin()</code> to join with <code>GlobalKTable</code> </li> + <li> note, join semantics in 0.10.2 were improved and thus you might see different result compared to 0.10.0.x and 0.10.1.x + (cf. <a href="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Kafka+Streams+Join+Semantics";>Kafka Streams Join Semantics</a> in the Apache Kafka wiki) + </ul> + + <p> Aligned <code>null</code>-key handling for <code>KTable</code> joins: </p> + <ul> + <li> like all other KTable operations, <code>KTable-KTable</code> joins do not throw an exception on <code>null</code> key records anymore, but drop those records silently </li> + </ul> + + <p> New window type <em>Session Windows</em>: </p> + <ul> + <li> added class <code>SessionWindows</code> to specify session windows </li> + <li> added overloads for <code>KGroupedStream</code> methods <code>#count()</code>, <code>#reduce()</code>, and <code>#aggregate()</code> + to allow session window aggregations </li> + </ul> + + <p> Changes to <code>TimestampExtractor</code>: </p> + <ul> + <li> method <code>#extract()</code> has a second parameter now </li> + <li> new default timestamp extractor class <code>FailOnInvalidTimestamp</code> + (it gives the same behavior as old (and removed) default extractor <code>ConsumerRecordTimestampExtractor</code>) </li> + <li> new alternative timestamp extractor classes <code>LogAndSkipOnInvalidTimestamp</code> and <code>UsePreviousTimeOnInvalidTimestamps</code> </li> + </ul> + + <p> Relaxed type constraints of many DSL interfaces, classes, and methods (cf. <a href="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-100+-+Relax+Type+constraints+in+Kafka+Streams+API";>KIP-100</a>). </p> + + <h3><a id="streams_api_changes_0101" href="#streams_api_changes_0101">Streams API changes in 0.10.1.0</a></h3> + + <p> Stream grouping and aggregation split into two methods: </p> + <ul> + <li> old: KStream #aggregateByKey(), #reduceByKey(), and #countByKey() </li> + <li> new: KStream#groupByKey() plus KGroupedStream #aggregate(), #reduce(), and #count() </li> + <li> Example: stream.countByKey() changes to stream.groupByKey().count() </li> + </ul> + + <p> Auto Repartitioning: </p> + <ul> + <li> a call to through() after a key-changing operator and before an aggregation/join is no longer required </li> + <li> Example: stream.selectKey(...).through(...).countByKey() changes to stream.selectKey().groupByKey().count() </li> + </ul> + + <p> TopologyBuilder: </p> + <ul> + <li> methods #sourceTopics(String applicationId) and #topicGroups(String applicationId) got simplified to #sourceTopics() and #topicGroups() </li> + </ul> + + <p> DSL: new parameter to specify state store names: </p> + <ul> + <li> The new Interactive Queries feature requires to specify a store name for all source KTables and window aggregation result KTables (previous parameter "operator/window name" is now the storeName) </li> + <li> KStreamBuilder#table(String topic) changes to #topic(String topic, String storeName) </li> + <li> KTable#through(String topic) changes to #through(String topic, String storeName) </li> + <li> KGroupedStream #aggregate(), #reduce(), and #count() require additional parameter "String storeName"</li> + <li> Example: stream.countByKey(TimeWindows.of("windowName", 1000)) changes to stream.groupByKey().count(TimeWindows.of(1000), "countStoreName") </li> + </ul> + + <p> Windowing: </p> + <ul> + <li> Windows are not named anymore: TimeWindows.of("name", 1000) changes to TimeWindows.of(1000) (cf. DSL: new parameter to specify state store names) </li> + <li> JoinWindows has no default size anymore: JoinWindows.of("name").within(1000) changes to JoinWindows.of(1000) </li> + </ul> + + <div class="pagination"> + <a href="/{{version}}/documentation/streams/developer-guide" class="pagination__btn pagination__btn__prev">Previous</a> + <a href="#" class="pagination__btn pagination__btn__next pagination__btn--disabled">Next</a> + </div> +</script> + +<!--#include virtual="../../includes/_header.htm" --> +<!--#include virtual="../../includes/_top.htm" --> +<div class="content documentation"> + <!--#include virtual="../../includes/_nav.htm" --> + <div class="right"> + <!--#include virtual="../../includes/_docs_banner.htm" --> + <ul class="breadcrumbs"> + <li><a href="/documentation">Documentation</a></li> + <li><a href="/documentation/streams">Streams</a></li> + </ul> + <div class="p-content"></div> + </div> +</div> +<!--#include virtual="../../includes/_footer.htm" --> +<script> +$(function() { + // Show selected style on nav item + $('.b-nav__streams').addClass('selected'); + + // Display docs subnav items + $('.b-nav__docs').parent().toggleClass('nav__item__with__subs--expanded'); +}); +</script> http://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/kafka-site/blob/04199a2e/0110/documentation/index.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- diff --git a/0110/documentation/index.html b/0110/documentation/index.html new file mode 100644 index 0000000..698eeed --- /dev/null +++ b/0110/documentation/index.html @@ -0,0 +1 @@ +<!--#include virtual="../documentation.html" --> \ No newline at end of file http://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/kafka-site/blob/04199a2e/0110/documentation/streams.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- diff --git a/0110/documentation/streams.html b/0110/documentation/streams.html deleted file mode 100644 index d8d2bb2..0000000 --- a/0110/documentation/streams.html +++ /dev/null @@ -1,19 +0,0 @@ -<!-- - Licensed to the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) under one or more - contributor license agreements.
