Create/Insert data into Azure Cosmos DB for Apache Cassandra from Spark

  • บทความ

APPLIES TO: Cassandra

This article describes how to insert sample data into a table in Azure Cosmos DB for Apache Cassandra from Spark.

API for Cassandra configuration

Set below spark configuration in your notebook cluster. It's one time activity.

//Connection-related
 spark.cassandra.connection.host  YOUR_ACCOUNT_NAME.cassandra.cosmosdb.azure.com  
 spark.cassandra.connection.port  10350  
 spark.cassandra.connection.ssl.enabled  true  
 spark.cassandra.auth.username  YOUR_ACCOUNT_NAME  
 spark.cassandra.auth.password  YOUR_ACCOUNT_KEY  
// if using Spark 2.x
// spark.cassandra.connection.factory  com.microsoft.azure.cosmosdb.cassandra.CosmosDbConnectionFactory  

//Throughput-related...adjust as needed
 spark.cassandra.output.batch.size.rows  1  
// spark.cassandra.connection.connections_per_executor_max  10   // Spark 2.x
 spark.cassandra.connection.remoteConnectionsPerExecutor  10   // Spark 3.x
 spark.cassandra.output.concurrent.writes  1000  
 spark.cassandra.concurrent.reads  512  
 spark.cassandra.output.batch.grouping.buffer.size  1000  
 spark.cassandra.connection.keep_alive_ms  600000000

Note

If you are using Spark 3.x, you do not need to install the Azure Cosmos DB helper and connection factory. You should also use remoteConnectionsPerExecutor instead of connections_per_executor_max for the Spark 3 connector (see above).

Warning

The Spark 3 samples shown in this article have been tested with Spark version 3.2.1 and the corresponding Cassandra Spark Connector com.datastax.spark:spark-cassandra-connector-assembly_2.12:3.2.0. Later versions of Spark and/or the Cassandra connector may not function as expected.

Dataframe API

Create a Dataframe with sample data

import org.apache.spark.sql.cassandra._
//Spark connector
import com.datastax.spark.connector._
import com.datastax.spark.connector.cql.CassandraConnector

//if using Spark 2.x, CosmosDB library for multiple retry
//import com.microsoft.azure.cosmosdb.cassandra

// Generate a dataframe containing five records
val booksDF = Seq(
   ("b00001", "Arthur Conan Doyle", "A study in scarlet", 1887),
   ("b00023", "Arthur Conan Doyle", "A sign of four", 1890),
   ("b01001", "Arthur Conan Doyle", "The adventures of Sherlock Holmes", 1892),
   ("b00501", "Arthur Conan Doyle", "The memoirs of Sherlock Holmes", 1893),
   ("b00300", "Arthur Conan Doyle", "The hounds of Baskerville", 1901)
).toDF("book_id", "book_author", "book_name", "book_pub_year")

//Review schema
booksDF.printSchema

//Print
booksDF.show

Note

"Create if not exists" functionality, at a row level, is not yet supported.

Persist to Azure Cosmos DB for Apache Cassandra

When saving data, you can also set time-to-live and consistency policy settings as shown in the following example:

//Persist
booksDF.write
  .mode("append")
  .format("org.apache.spark.sql.cassandra")
  .options(Map( "table" -> "books", "keyspace" -> "books_ks", "output.consistency.level" -> "ALL", "ttl" -> "10000000"))
  .save()

Validate in cqlsh

use books_ks;
select * from books;

Resilient Distributed Database (RDD) API

Create an RDD with sample data

//Drop and re-create table to delete records created in the previous section 
val cdbConnector = CassandraConnector(sc)
cdbConnector.withSessionDo(session => session.execute("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS books_ks.books;"))

cdbConnector.withSessionDo(session => session.execute("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS books_ks.books(book_id TEXT,book_author TEXT, book_name TEXT,book_pub_year INT,book_price FLOAT, PRIMARY KEY(book_id,book_pub_year)) WITH cosmosdb_provisioned_throughput=4000 , WITH default_time_to_live=630720000;"))

//Create RDD
val booksRDD = sc.parallelize(Seq(
   ("b00001", "Arthur Conan Doyle", "A study in scarlet", 1887),
   ("b00023", "Arthur Conan Doyle", "A sign of four", 1890),
   ("b01001", "Arthur Conan Doyle", "The adventures of Sherlock Holmes", 1892),
   ("b00501", "Arthur Conan Doyle", "The memoirs of Sherlock Holmes", 1893),
   ("b00300", "Arthur Conan Doyle", "The hounds of Baskerville", 1901)
))

//Review
booksRDD.take(2).foreach(println)

Note

Create if not exists functionality is not yet supported.

Persist to Azure Cosmos DB for Apache Cassandra

When saving data to API for Cassandra, you can also set time-to-live and consistency policy settings as shown in the following example:

import com.datastax.spark.connector.writer._
import com.datastax.oss.driver.api.core.ConsistencyLevel

//Persist
booksRDD.saveToCassandra("books_ks", "books", SomeColumns("book_id", "book_author", "book_name", "book_pub_year"),writeConf = WriteConf(ttl = TTLOption.constant(900000),consistencyLevel = ConsistencyLevel.ALL))

Validate in cqlsh

use books_ks;
select * from books;
