# AQuery++ Database
|
|
## Introduction
|
|
|
|
AQuery++ Database is a cross-platform, In-Memory Column-Store Database that incorporates compiled query execution.
|
|
|
|
## Architecture
|
|
![Architecture](./docs/arch-hybrid.svg)
|
|
|
|
### AQuery Compiler
|
|
- The query is first processed by the AQuery Compiler which is composed of a frontend that parses the query into AST and a backend that generates target code that delivers the query.
|
|
- Front end of AQuery++ Compiler is built on top of [mo-sql-parsing](https://github.com/klahnakoski/mo-sql-parsing) with modifications to handle AQuery dialect and extension.
|
|
- Backend of AQuery++ Compiler generates target code dependent on the Execution Engine. It can either be the C++ code for AQuery Execution Engine or sql and C++ post-processor for Hybrid Engine or k9 for the k9 Engine.
|
|
### Execution Engines
|
|
- AQuery++ supports different execution engines thanks to the decoupled compiler structure.
|
|
- AQuery Execution Engine: executes query by compiling the query plan to C++ code. Doesn't support joins and udf functions.
|
|
- Hybrid Execution Engine: decouples the query into two parts. The sql-compliant part is executed by an Embedded version of Monetdb and everything else is executed by a post-process module which is generated by AQuery++ Compiler in C++ and then compiled and executed.
|
|
- K9 Execution Engine: (discontinued).
|
|
|
|
## Roadmap
|
|
- [x] SQL Parser -> AQuery Parser (Front End)
|
|
- [x] AQuery-C++ Compiler (Back End)
|
|
- [x] Schema and Data Model
|
|
- [x] Data acquisition/output from/to csv file
|
|
- [ ] Execution Engine
|
|
- [x] Projections and single-group Aggregations
|
|
- [x] Group by Aggregations
|
|
- [x] Filters
|
|
- [x] Order by
|
|
- [x] Assumption
|
|
- [x] Flatten
|
|
- [x] UDFs (Hybrid Engine only)
|
|
- [x] User Module
|
|
- [ ] Triggers
|
|
- [x] Join (Hybrid Engine only)
|
|
- [ ] Subqueries
|
|
- [x] Query Optimization
|
|
- [x] Selection/Order by push-down
|
|
- [x] Join Optimization (Only in Hybrid Engine)
|
|
|
|
## TODO:
|
|
|
|
- [x] User Module load syntax parsing (fn definition/registration)
|
|
- [x] User Module initialize location
|
|
-> User Module test
|
|
-> Interval based triggers
|
|
-> Optimize Compilation Process, using static libraries, hot reloading server binary
|
|
- [x] Bug fixes: type deduction misaligned in Hybrid Engine
|
|
-> Investigation: Using postproc only for q1 in Hybrid Engine (make is_special always on)
|
|
- [x] Limitation: putting ColRefs back to monetdb.
|
|
- [ ] Limitation: String operations and Date/Time data type.
|
|
- [ ] C++ Meta-Programming: Eliminate template recursions as much as possible.
|
|
- [ ] Limitation: Date and Time, String operations, Funcs in groupby agg.

# Installation
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
1. Recent version of Linux, Windows or MacOS, with recent C++ compiler that has C++17 (1z) support.
|
|
- GCC: 9.0 or above (g++ 7.x, 8.x fail to handle variadic template expansion due to a compiler bug)
|
|
- Clang: 5.0 or above (Recommended)
|
|
- MSVC: 2017 or later
|
|
|
|
2. Monetdb for Hybrid Engine
|
|
- On windows, the required libraries and headers are already included in the repo.
|
|
- On Linux, see [Monetdb Easy Setup](https://www.monetdb.org/easy-setup/) for instructions.
|
|
- On MacOS, Monetdb can be easily installed in homebrew `brew install monetdb`.
|
|
|
|
3. Python 3.6 or above and install required packages in requirements.txt by `python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt`
|
|
## Usage
|
|
`python3 prompt.py` will launch the interactive command prompt. The server binary will be autometically rebuilt and started.
|
|
#### Commands:
|
|
- `<sql statement>`: parse sql statement
|
|
- `f <filename>`: parse all sql statements in file
|
|
- `dbg` start debugging session
|
|
- `print`: printout parsed sql statements
|
|
- `exec`: execute last parsed statement(s) with AQuery Execution Engine. AQuery Execution Engine executes query by compiling it to C++ code and then executing it.
|
|
|
|
- `xexec`: execute last parsed statement(s) with Hybrid Execution Engine. Hybrid Execution Engine decouples the query into two parts. The sql-compliant part is executed by an Embedded version of Monetdb and everything else is executed by a post-process module which is generated by AQuery++ Compiler in C++ and then compiled and executed.
|
|
- `r`: run the last generated code snippet
|
|
- `save <OPTIONAL: filename>`: save current code snippet. will use random filename if not specified.
|
|
- `exit`: quit the prompt
|
|
#### Example:
|
|
`f moving_avg.a` <br>
|
|
`xexec`
|
