Deploy StarRocks with Docker

This tutorial covers:

Running StarRocks in a single Docker container
Loading two public datasets including basic transformation of the data
Analyzing the data with SELECT and JOIN
Basic data transformation (the T in ETL)

The data used is provided by NYC OpenData and the National Centers for Environmental Information.

Both of these datasets are very large, and because this tutorial is intended to help you get exposed to working with StarRocks we are not going to load data for the past 120 years. You can run the Docker image and load this data on a machine with 4 GB RAM assigned to Docker. For larger fault-tolerant and scalable deployments we have other documentation and will provide that later.

There is a lot of information in this document, and it is presented with the step by step content at the beginning, and the technical details at the end. This is done to serve these purposes in this order:

Allow the reader to load data in StarRocks and analyze that data.
Explain the basics of data transformation during loading.

Prerequisites

Docker

Docker
4 GB RAM assigned to Docker
10 GB free disk space assigned to Docker

SQL client

You can use the SQL client provided in the Docker environment, or use one on your system. Many MySQL compatible clients will work, and this guide covers the configuration of DBeaver and MySQL WorkBench.

curl

curl is used to issue the data load job to StarRocks, and to download the datasets. Check to see if you have it installed by running curl or curl.exe at your OS prompt. If curl is not installed, get curl here.

Terminology

FE

Frontend nodes are responsible for metadata management, client connection management, query planning, and query scheduling. Each FE stores and maintains a complete copy of metadata in its memory, which guarantees indiscriminate services among the FEs.

BE

Backend nodes are responsible for both data storage and executing query plans.

Launch StarRocks

docker run -p 9030:9030 -p 8030:8030 -p 8040:8040 -itd \
--name quickstart starrocks/allin1-ubuntu

SQL clients

These three clients are tested with this tutorial, you only need one:

mysql CLI: You can run this from the Docker environment or your machine.
DBeaver is available as a community version and a Pro version.
MySQL Workbench

Configuring the client

mysql CLI
DBeaver
MySQL Workbench

The easiest way to use the mysql CLI is to run it from the StarRocks container starrocks-fe:

docker exec -it quickstart \
mysql -P 9030 -h 127.0.0.1 -u root --prompt="StarRocks > "

If you would like to install the mysql CLI expand mysql client install below:

mysql client install

macOS: If you use Homebrew and do not need MySQL Server run brew install mysql to install the CLI.
Linux: Check your repository system for the mysql client. For example, yum install mariadb.
Microsoft Windows: Install the MySQL Community Server and run the provided client, or run mysql from WSL.

Download the data

Download these two datasets to your machine. You can download them to the host machine where you are running Docker, they do not need to be downloaded inside the container.

New York City crash data

curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/StarRocks/demo/master/documentation-samples/quickstart/datasets/NYPD_Crash_Data.csv

Weather data

curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/StarRocks/demo/master/documentation-samples/quickstart/datasets/72505394728.csv

Connect to StarRocks with a SQL client

tip

If you are using a client other than the mysql CLI, open that now.

This command will run the mysql command in the Docker container:

docker exec -it quickstart \
mysql -P 9030 -h 127.0.0.1 -u root --prompt="StarRocks > "

Create some tables

Create a database

Type these two lines in at the StarRocks > prompt and press enter after each:

CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS quickstart;

USE quickstart;

Create two tables

Crashdata

The crash dataset contains many more fields than these, the schema has been trimmed down to include only the fields that might be useful to answer questions about the impact weather has on driving conditions.

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS crashdata (
    CRASH_DATE DATETIME,
    BOROUGH STRING,
    ZIP_CODE STRING,
    LATITUDE INT,
    LONGITUDE INT,
    LOCATION STRING,
    ON_STREET_NAME STRING,
    CROSS_STREET_NAME STRING,
    OFF_STREET_NAME STRING,
    CONTRIBUTING_FACTOR_VEHICLE_1 STRING,
    CONTRIBUTING_FACTOR_VEHICLE_2 STRING,
    COLLISION_ID INT,
    VEHICLE_TYPE_CODE_1 STRING,
    VEHICLE_TYPE_CODE_2 STRING
);

Weatherdata

Similar to the crash data, the weather dataset has many more columns (a total of 125 columns) and only the ones that are expected to answer the questions are included in the database.

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS weatherdata (
    DATE DATETIME,
    NAME STRING,
    HourlyDewPointTemperature STRING,
    HourlyDryBulbTemperature STRING,
    HourlyPrecipitation STRING,
    HourlyPresentWeatherType STRING,
    HourlyPressureChange STRING,
    HourlyPressureTendency STRING,
    HourlyRelativeHumidity STRING,
    HourlySkyConditions STRING,
    HourlyVisibility STRING,
    HourlyWetBulbTemperature STRING,
    HourlyWindDirection STRING,
    HourlyWindGustSpeed STRING,
    HourlyWindSpeed STRING
);

Load two datasets

There are many ways to load data into StarRocks. For this tutorial the simplest way is to use curl and StarRocks Stream Load.

tip

Open a new shell as these curl commands are run at the operating system prompt, not in the mysql client. The commands refer to the datasets that you downloaded, so run them from the directory where you downloaded the files.

You will be prompted for a password. You probably have not assigned a password to the MySQL root user, so just hit enter.

The curl commands look complex, but they are explained in detail at the end of the tutorial. For now, we recommend running the commands and running some SQL to analyze the data, and then reading about the data loading details at the end.

Answer some questions

These queries can be run in your SQL client. All of the queries use the quickstart database.

USE quickstart;

How many crashes are there per hour in NYC?

SELECT COUNT(*),
       date_trunc("hour", crashdata.CRASH_DATE) AS Time
FROM crashdata
GROUP BY Time
ORDER BY Time ASC
LIMIT 200;

Here is part of the output. Note that I am looking closer at January 6th and 7th as this is Monday and Tuesday of a non-holiday week. Looking at New Years Day is probably not indicative of a normal morning during rush-hour traffic.

It looks like about 40 accidents on a Monday or Tuesday morning during rush hour traffic, and around the same at 17:00 hours.

What is the average temperature in NYC?

SELECT avg(HourlyDryBulbTemperature),
       date_trunc("hour", weatherdata.DATE) AS Time

GROUP BY Time
ORDER BY Time ASC
LIMIT 100;

Output:

Note that this is data from 2014, NYC has not been this cold lately.

Is it safe to drive in NYC when visibility is poor?

Let's look at the number of crashes when visibility is poor (between 0 and 1.0 miles). To answer this question use a JOIN across the two tables on the DATETIME column.

SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT c.COLLISION_ID) AS Crashes,
       truncate(avg(w.HourlyDryBulbTemperature), 1) AS Temp_F,
       truncate(avg(w.HourlyVisibility), 2) AS Visibility,
       max(w.HourlyPrecipitation) AS Precipitation,
       date_format((date_trunc("hour", c.CRASH_DATE)), '%d %b %Y %H:%i') AS Hour
FROM crashdata c
LEFT JOIN weatherdata w
ON date_trunc("hour", c.CRASH_DATE)=date_trunc("hour", w.DATE)
WHERE w.HourlyVisibility BETWEEN 0.0 AND 1.0
GROUP BY Hour
ORDER BY Crashes DESC
LIMIT 100;

The highest number of crashes in a single hour during low visibility is 129. There are multiple things to consider:

February 3rd 2014 was a Monday
8AM is rush hour
It was raining (0.12 inches or precipitation that hour)
The temperature is 32 degrees F (the freezing point for water)
Visibility is bad at 0.25 miles, normal for NYC is 10 miles

What about driving in icy conditions?

Water vapor can desublimate to ice at 40 degrees F; this query looks at temps between 0 and 40 degrees F.

SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT c.COLLISION_ID) AS Crashes,
       truncate(avg(w.HourlyDryBulbTemperature), 1) AS Temp_F,
       truncate(avg(w.HourlyVisibility), 2) AS Visibility,
       max(w.HourlyPrecipitation) AS Precipitation,
       date_format((date_trunc("hour", c.CRASH_DATE)), '%d %b %Y %H:%i') AS Hour
FROM crashdata c
LEFT JOIN weatherdata w
ON date_trunc("hour", c.CRASH_DATE)=date_trunc("hour", w.DATE)
WHERE w.HourlyDryBulbTemperature BETWEEN 0.0 AND 40.5 
GROUP BY Hour
ORDER BY Crashes DESC
LIMIT 100;

The results for freezing temperatures suprised me a little, I did not expect too much traffic on a Sunday morning in the city on a cold January day.A quick look at weather.com showed that there was a big storm with many crashes that day, just like what can be seen in the data.

Drive carefully!

Summary

In this tutorial you:

Deployed StarRocks in Docker
Loaded crash data provided by New York City and weather data provided by NOAA
Analyzed the data using SQL JOINs to find out that driving in low visibility or icy streets is a bad idea

There is more to learn; we intentionally glossed over the data transformation done during the Stream Load. The details on that are in the notes on the curl commands below.

Notes on the curl commands

StarRocks Stream Load and curl take many arguments. Only the ones used in this tutorial are described here, the rest will be linked to in the more information section.

`--location-trusted`

This configures curl to pass credentials to any redirected URLs.

`-u root`

The username used to log in to StarRocks

`-T filename`

T is for transfer, the filename to transfer.

`label:name-num`

The label to associate with this Stream Load job. The label must be unique, so if you run the job multiple times you can add a number and keep incrementing that.

`column_separator:,`

If you load a file that uses a single , then set it as shown above, if you use a different delimiter then set that delimiter here. Common choices are \t, ,, and |.

`skip_header:1`

Some CSV files have a single header row with all of the column names listed, and some add a second line with datatypes. Set skip_header to 1 or 2 if you have one or two header lines, and set it to 0 if you have none.

`enclose:\"`

It is common to enclose strings that contain embedded commas with double-quotes. The sample datasets used in this tutorial have geo locations that contain commas and so the enclose setting is set to \". Remember to escape the " with a \.

`max_filter_ratio:1`

This allows some errors in the data. Ideally this would be set to 0 and the job would fail with any errors. It is set to 1 to allow all rows to fail during debugging.

`columns:`

The mapping of CSV file columns to StarRocks table columns. You will notice that there are many more columns in the CSV files than columns in the table. Any columns that are not included in the table are skipped.

You will also notice that there is some transformation of data included in the columns: line for the crash dataset. It is very common to find dates and times in CSV files that do not conform to standards. This is the logic for converting the CSV data for the time and date of the crash to a DATETIME type:

The columns line

This is the beginning of one data record. The date is in MM/DD/YYYY format, and the time is HH:MI. Since DATETIME is generally YYYY-MM-DD HH:MI:SS we need to transform this data.

08/05/2014,9:10,BRONX,10469,40.8733019,-73.8536375,"(40.8733019, -73.8536375)",

This is the beginning of the columns: parameter:

-H "columns:tmp_CRASH_DATE, tmp_CRASH_TIME, CRASH_DATE=str_to_date(concat_ws(' ', tmp_CRASH_DATE, tmp_CRASH_TIME), '%m/%d/%Y %H:%i')

This instructs StarRocks to:

Assign the content of the first column of the CSV file to tmp_CRASH_DATE
Assign the content of the second column of the CSV file to tmp_CRASH_TIME
concat_ws() concatenates tmp_CRASH_DATE and tmp_CRASH_TIME together with a space between them
str_to_date() creates a DATETIME from the concatenated string
store the resulting DATETIME in the column CRASH_DATE
