About

Accumulator is a distributed component. Each node can push data, and Accumulator server aggregates all the pushed data for query. Accumulator supports custom aggregator while some aggregators are predifined.

Aggregator

The predefined aggregators are as follows:

  • SumAggregator
  • AvgAggregator
  • ArithmeticMaxAggregator
  • ArithmeticMinAggregator

Quick Start

The following is a simple distributed example.

Before using Accumulator, each node must initialize prpc firstly.

    _master = std::make_unique<Master>("127.0.0.1");
    _master->initialize();

    _mc = std::make_unique<TcpMasterClient>(_master->endpoint());
    _mc->initialize();
    RpcConfig rpc_config;
    rpc_config.protocol = "tcp";
    rpc_config.bind_ip = "127.0.0.1";
    rpc_config.io_thread_num = 1;
    _rpc = std::make_unique<RpcService>();
    _rpc->initialize(_mc.get(), rpc_config);

Then, select a node as the server node, and the server node needs to be responsible for receiving data from all nodes. Here, the first node that is successfully initialized is selected as the server node.

    if (_rpc->global_rank() == 0) {
        AccumulatorServer::singleton().initialize(_rpc.get());
    }
    AccumulatorClient::singleton().initialize(_rpc.get());

Then define the same Accumulator on all nodes. Here, "sum_int_count_single_ok" is the ID of the Accumulator. Same ID in different nodes will point to the same Accumulator entity. And SumAggregator<int64_t> is the aggregator, which must be strictly consistent when Accumulator defined on different nodes. Parameter 10 is the refresh frequency, which means that every 10 times write the client aggregates and pushes data to the server.

    Accumulator<SumAggregator<int64_t>> counter("sum_int_counter_single_ok", 10)

After that, each node pushes different data according to its rank.

    const int count_max = 1000;
    for (int i = 0; i < count_max; i++) {
        ASSERT_TRUE(counter.write((i+1) * (_rpc.global_rank()+1)));
    }
    AccumulatorClient::singleton().wait_empty();

After the data of all nodes have been pushed, you can get the summary and check it.

    ASSERT_TRUE(counter.try_read_to_string(cnt_res));
    std::string right_res = boost::lexical_cast<std::string>((1+count_max)*count_max/2
            * _rpc.global_rank() * (_rpc.global_rank() + 1) / 2);
    EXPECT_STREQ(right_res.c_str(), cnt_res.c_str());

Finally, the resources need to be released in sequence.

    if (_rpc.global_rank() == 0) {
        AccumulatorClient::singleton().erase_all();
    }
    AccumulatorClient::singleton().finalize();
    if (_rpc.global_rank() == 0) {
        AccumulatorServer::singleton().finalize();
    }
    _rpc->finalize();
    _master->exit();
    _master->finalize();
