Request limits policy

Applies to: ✅ Microsoft FabricAzure Data Explorer

A workload group's request limits policy allows limiting the resources used by the request during its execution.

The policy object

Each limit consists of:

  • A typed Value - the value of the limit.
  • IsRelaxable - a boolean value that defines if the limit can be relaxed by the caller, as part of the request's request properties.

The following limits are configurable:

Property Type Description Supported values Matching client request property
DataScope string The query's data scope. This value determines whether the query applies to all data or just the hot cache. All, HotCache, or null query_datascope
MaxMemoryPerQueryPerNode long The maximum amount of memory (in bytes) a query can allocate. [1, 50% of a single node's total RAM] max_memory_consumption_per_query_per_node
MaxMemoryPerIterator long The maximum amount of memory (in bytes) a query operator can allocate. [1, 50% of a single node's total RAM] maxmemoryconsumptionperiterator
MaxFanoutThreadsPercentage int The percentage of threads on each node to fan out query execution to. When set to 100%, the cluster assigns all CPUs on each node. For example, 16 CPUs on a cluster deployed on Azure D14_v2 nodes. [1, 100] query_fanout_threads_percent
MaxFanoutNodesPercentage int The percentage of nodes on the cluster to fan out query execution to. Functions in a similar manner to MaxFanoutThreadsPercentage. [1, 100] query_fanout_nodes_percent
MaxResultRecords long The maximum number of records a request is allowed to return to the caller, above which the results are truncated. The truncation limit affects the final result of the query, as delivered back to the client. However, the truncation limit doesn't apply to intermediate results of subqueries, such as those that result from having cross-cluster references. [1, 9223372036854775807] truncationmaxrecords
MaxResultBytes long The maximum data size (in bytes) a request is allowed to return to the caller, above which the results are truncated. The truncation limit affects the final result of the query, as delivered back to the client. However, the truncation limit doesn't apply to intermediate results of subqueries, such as those that result from having cross-cluster references. [1, 9223372036854775807] truncationmaxsize
MaxExecutionTime timespan The maximum duration of a request.
Notes:
1) This can be used to place more limits on top of the default limits on execution time, but not extend them.
2) Timeout processing isn't at the resolution of seconds, rather it's designed to prevent a query from running for minutes.
3) The time it takes to read the payload back at the client isn't treated as part of the timeout. It depends on how quickly the caller pulls the data from the stream.
4) Total execution time may exceed the configured value if aborting execution takes longer to complete.

MaxMemoryPerIterator long The maximum amount of memory (in bytes) a query operator can allocate. [1, 50% of a single node's total RAM] maxmemoryconsumptionperiterator
MaxFanoutThreadsPercentage int The percentage of threads on each node to fan out query execution to. When set to 100%, the eventhouse assigns all CPUs on each node. For example, 16 CPUs on a eventhouse deployed on Azure D14_v2 nodes. [1, 100] query_fanout_threads_percent
MaxFanoutNodesPercentage int The percentage of nodes on the eventhouse to fan out query execution to. Functions in a similar manner to MaxFanoutThreadsPercentage. [1, 100] query_fanout_nodes_percent
MaxResultRecords long The maximum number of records a request is allowed to return to the caller, above which the results are truncated. The truncation limit affects the final result of the query, as delivered back to the client. However, the truncation limit doesn't apply to intermediate results of subqueries, such as those that result from having cross-eventhouse references. [1, 9223372036854775807] truncationmaxrecords

Note

A limit that isn't defined, or is defined as null, is taken from the default workload group's request limits policy.

CPU resource usage

Queries can use all the CPU resources within the cluster. By default, when multiple queries are running concurrently, the system employs a fair round-robin approach to distribute resources. This strategy is optimal for achieving high performance with ad-hoc queries.

Queries can use all the CPU resources within the eventhouse. By default, when multiple queries are running concurrently, the system employs a fair round-robin approach to distribute resources. This strategy is optimal for achieving high performance with ad-hoc queries.

However, there are scenarios where you might want to restrict the CPU resources allocated to a specific query. For instance, if you are running a background job that can accommodate higher latencies. The request limits policy provides the flexibility to specify a lower percentage of threads or nodes to be used when executing distributed sub-query operations. The default setting is 100%.

The default workload group

The default workload group has the following policy defined by default. This policy can be altered.

{
  "DataScope": {
    "IsRelaxable": true,
    "Value": "All"
  },
  "MaxMemoryPerQueryPerNode": {
    "IsRelaxable": true,
    "Value": < 50% of a single node's total RAM >
  },
  "MaxMemoryPerIterator": {
    "IsRelaxable": true,
    "Value": 5368709120
  },
  "MaxFanoutThreadsPercentage": {
    "IsRelaxable": true,
    "Value": 100
  },
  "MaxFanoutNodesPercentage": {
    "IsRelaxable": true,
    "Value": 100
  },
  "MaxResultRecords": {
    "IsRelaxable": true,
    "Value": 500000
  },
  "MaxResultBytes": {
    "IsRelaxable": true,
    "Value": 67108864
  },
  "MaxExecutiontime": {
    "IsRelaxable": true,
    "Value": "00:04:00"
  }
}

Note

  • Limits in the default workload group must be defined and have a non-null value.
  • All limits in the default workload group have IsRelaxable set to true.
  • Request limits are turned off for specific command types within the default workload group, such as .export commands and ingest from query commands like .set-or-append and .set-or-replace. When these commands are assigned to a non-default workload group, the request limits specified in the policy become applicable.
