有很多原因数据库需要扩展性。1、请求需要访问的数据量过大(单纯的数据量大不是理由,例如从不访问,归档即可);2、服务器CPU、内存、网络、IO到了瓶颈,响应时间大大下降;3、MPP中,集中式数据库在设计时通常为了开发人员使用更加顺畅和丝滑,尽可能的让数据库设计和SQL非常简单,比如不需要指定某些表实际上是存在主外键关系,从而导致并行执行效果打折;或者并行执行在一开始并不包含,后面逐渐增强,导致并行执行有天然的缺陷,分区亦如此。这三通常是根本原因。
首先提供了比较公正参考的是citus中国写的一篇文章PG-XL,Citus,GreenPlum如何选择,不同于其他分布式数据库如tidb、oceanbase、tdsql等每家都说自己最厉害,citus还是比较客观的分析,它自己比较适合于OLTP下的分布式,并不适合于大规模的adhoc场景。实际上很多系统数据量积累的比较大、同时业务流程又很复杂,但是TPS不高,这些系统要应用于分布式数据库,物理模型的设计是很重要的,不是简单的库能套上去的,例如数据中心、历史库的包含就很重要了。亦或者上去了就下不来了,维护成本会非常高。
和其他分布式架构一样,citus也采用协调者和工作者节点,也可以认为是master和worker,说计算和存储分离是不合适的(大多数分布式数据库如oceanbase、goldendb、TDSQL自称计算和存储分离也是不合适的)。真正接近了存储和计算分离的是oracle exadata、tidb。如下所示,协调者和工作者一样都是postgresql实例。
SQL语句经过语法解析后,在协调者节点的analyze阶段被citus扩展(和greenplum、xl、xc不同的是,citus采用的是extension机制(pg定义了大量hook供各种extension访问,具体可参见postgresql内核开发必备之extension机制))替换,并进行SQL语句的fork and join过程。得益于extension这一点,你可以认为citus本质上和greenplum、xl以及xc在事务、语法语义等数据库本身特性的支持上是差不多的。而不是三方中间件如pgpool、pgbouncer中的硬塞实现。因此具有更好的一致性和稳定性保证。
在分布式事务的实现上,citus也是采用2PC协议。它的实现可以参考http://citusdb.cn/?p=661。
注:citus架构的优点在于,它认为分布式是一个特性,而不是属性。这一点LZ在所有场合都是这么坚信,95%+的系统永远都不需要微服务架构,数据库也不需要分布式,因为其到不了那个容量,所以理论上可以扩展使得应用能够同时运行于单实例和分布式,而其它一开始就设计为分布式的数据库是很难的。
因为没有做单独GTM节点的概念,citus无法的协调者无法实现多活,这种情况下容易出现协调者单点,如下:
对此,Citus还提供了两个参数use_secondary_node和writable_standby_coordinator以支持写入能力扩展及数据节点读写分离。这样standby cn也可以执行查询和DML操作。如下所示:
由此可见,可靠的分布式数据库架构是非常复杂的,如果没有非常一体化的监控管理平台,其维护难度可想而知。

然后正常通过initdb创建postgresql数据库,1个CN,2个DN。
如下:
[zjh@lightdb1 pgsql-13]$ ll total 24 drwxr-xr-x 2 zjh zjh 4096 Jun 1 17:43 bin drwx------ 21 zjh zjh 4096 Aug 29 00:00 coordinator_1 drwxr-xr-x 3 zjh zjh 23 Jun 1 17:43 doc drwxr-xr-x 3 zjh zjh 4096 Jun 19 14:58 lib drwxr-xr-x 7 zjh zjh 4096 Jun 1 17:43 share drwx------ 21 zjh zjh 4096 Aug 29 00:00 worker_1_13588 drwx------ 21 zjh zjh 4096 Aug 29 00:00 worker_2_23588
安装citus插件:
-- CN和DN都要配置 shared_preload_libraries='citus' -- 第一个插件必须是citus CREATE EXTENSION citus; -- 安装在postgres用户下即可
SELECT * from citus_add_node('10.0.0.1', 13588); SELECT * from citus_add_node('10.0.0.1', 23588);
查询DN列表:
postgres=# SELECT * FROM citus_get_active_worker_nodes(); node_name | node_port --------------+----------- 10.0.0.1 | 23588 10.0.0.1 | 13588 (2 rows)
在citus中,分片和节点不是一对一关系,这一点不同于greenplum,更接近nosql如couchbase的设计,一定程度上这么做也避免了使用了citus之后还需要分区的必要性(这是个优点、也是个缺点,平衡的结果)。
citus中表分三种类型,1:分库表(每个DN n个分片,分片数量可配置,一般是订单表和客户表);2:广播表(每个DN一份,CN不包括,一般是字典表、产品表、费率表、机构表、权限表等);3:全局表(仅存在于CN,一些系统参数表,统计表,也可能广播存储,看情况),全局表一般不会和广播表、分库表进行关联,默认CN创建表的时候就是local表,也可以通过SELECT undistribute_table('github_events');将分库表切换回local表(此时会数据先迁移回来,也是缩容的一种方式)。
广播表和分库表,广播表和广播表之间关联会很多。
同时会存在多种业务存在于同一个数据库中的情况,例如库存和客户,操作日志和订单,小二和菜单、功能、客户,并且同时有从菜单维度查,也有从小二维度查。所以citus支持对表进行分组,相关分组的表,citus在生成分布式执行计划的时候就知道那些是相关的,哪些是无关的。如下:
SELECT create_distributed_table('event', 'tenant_id');
SELECT create_distributed_table('page', 'tenant_id', colocate_with => 'event');
分组的前提是两个表使用相同字段作为分片字段。分组可以使得SQL的优化更加进一步。
总有一会儿,你会发现库存和客户表进行关联,通过订单进行的。这个时候库存是根据产品分片的,客户是通过客户id分片的。此时效果会怎么样呢?
不同于greenplum支持distributed by语法,citus因为采用extension实现,没有扩展pg本身的语法,所以采用函数的方式来指定表是否为分布式表。
CREATE TABLE companies ( id bigserial PRIMARY KEY, name text NOT NULL, image_url text, created_at timestamp without time zone NOT NULL, updated_at timestamp without time zone NOT NULL ); SELECT create_distributed_table('companies', 'id'); -- companies表为分布式表,id是用于分片的字段
需要注意的是,citus分片数量和worker数量不是一一对应,这和gp不同,但类似于现在tidb、oceanbase的做法。如下:
要创建广播表,可以使用create_reference_table函数:
SELECT create_reference_table('geo_ips'); -- 所有worker节点广播,不包含CN
大多数的DDL语句citus都支持,会负责分布式调用所有worker。
不管用户是否承认,相同的功能,存储过程和函数实现的效率就是要比应用发送SQL过来效率更高。所以citus支持了分布式函数的概念。
新增节点后,默认不会启用,需要调用rebalance_table_shards让citus对数据进行迁移,然后才会被访问。
SELECT rebalance_table_shards('companies');

一般SQL,失真不算很严重。
bypass-CN模式
因为TPC-C所有的表都co-location到warehouse_id了,所以跑TPCC是没有问题的。只不过citus的重写着实有点蠢。如下:
2021-10-07 21:21:47.037945T [239675] LOG: duration: 97782.322 ms execute <unnamed>: SELECT count(*) AS low_stock FROM (SELECT bmsql_stock.s_w_id, bmsql_stock.s_i_id, bmsql_stock.s_quantity FROM public.bmsql_stock_103379 bmsql_stock WHERE ((bmsql_stock.s_w_id OPERATOR(pg_catalog.=) $1) AND (bmsql_stock.s_quantity OPERATOR(pg_catalog.<) $2) AND (bmsql_stock.s_i_id OPERATOR(pg_catalog.=) ANY (SELECT bmsql_order_line.ol_i_id FROM (public.bmsql_district_103186 bmsql_district JOIN public.bmsql_order_line_103346 bmsql_order_line ON (((bmsql_order_line.ol_w_id OPERATOR(pg_catalog.=) bmsql_district.d_w_id) AND (bmsql_order_line.ol_d_id OPERATOR(pg_catalog.=) bmsql_district.d_id) AND (bmsql_order_line.ol_o_id OPERATOR(pg_catalog.>=) (bmsql_district.d_next_o_id OPERATOR(pg_catalog.-) 20)) AND (bmsql_order_line.ol_o_id OPERATOR(pg_catalog.<) bmsql_district.d_next_o_id)))) WHERE ((bmsql_district.d_w_id OPERATOR(pg_catalog.=) $3) AND (bmsql_district.d_id OPERATOR(pg_catalog.=) $4)))))) l 2021-10-07 21:21:47.037945T [239675] DETAIL: parameters: $1 = '974', $2 = '13', $3 = '974', $4 = '10'
同时,citus到worker节点后,执行计划的效果很不理想。有些select count(1)执行居然要几十秒,在单机时只要及时毫秒。tpmC从20万掉下到6万。
除了标准的建表功能外,分布式数据库至少要支持:
显示的广播接口,包括:到每个主worker节点,到每个主副worker节点,到每个主分片,到每个主副分片。
显示的单播可用接口,包括:到任一worker节点,到任一分片。
p14.6 Manual Query Propagation
citus对TPC-H的支持不太好,准确的是说复杂关联支持不好。但凡涉及到关联字段不包含分片键、没有co-location的几乎都不支持。如下:
Vuser 1:Query Failed : select o_year, sum(case when nation = 'MOZAMBIQUE' then volume else 0 end) / sum(volume) as mkt_share from ( select extract(year from o_orderdate) as o_year, l_extendedprice * (1 - l_discount) as volume, n2.n_name as nation from part, supplier, lineitem, orders, customer, nation n1, nation n2, region where p_partkey = l_partkey and s_suppkey = l_suppkey and l_orderkey = o_orderkey and o_custkey = c_custkey and c_nationkey = n1.n_nationkey and n1.n_regionkey = r_regionkey and r_name = 'AFRICA' and s_nationkey = n2.n_nationkey and o_orderdate between date '1995-01-01' and date '1996-12-31' and p_type = 'STANDARD POLISHED STEEL') all_nations group by o_year order by o_year : ERROR: complex joins are only supported when all distributed tables are co-located and joined on their distribution columns

因为citus是插件化,注定了不可能和原生GP一样默认为分布式MPP而生。开启citus.enable_repartition_joins后,有10个语句默认跑不通。
CITUS注意点
