Tools to Transform and Query Data with ‘Apache’ ‘Drill’
Version 0.7.0+ (a.k.a. the main branch) splits off the JDBC interface into a separate package sergeant.caffeinated (GitHub).
I# Description
Drill + sergeant is (IMO) a streamlined alternative to Spark + sparklyr if you don’t need the ML components of Spark (i.e. just need to query “big data” sources, need to interface with parquet, need to combine disparate data source types — json, csv, parquet, rdbms - for aggregation, etc). Drill also has support for spatial queries.
Using Drill SQL queries that reference parquet files on a local linux or macOS workstation can often be more performant than doing the same data ingestion & wrangling work with R (especially for large or disperate data sets). Drill can often help further streamline workflows that involve wrangling many tiny JSON files on a daily basis.
Drill can be obtained from https://drill.apache.org/download/ (use “Direct File Download”). Drill can also be installed via Docker. For local installs on Unix-like systems, a common/suggestion location for the Drill directory is /usr/local/drill as the install directory.
Drill embedded (started using the $DRILL_BASE_DIR/bin/drill-embedded script) is a super-easy way to get started playing with Drill on a single workstation and most of many workflows can “get by” using Drill this way.
There are a few convenience wrappers for various informational SQL queries (like drill_version()). Please file an PR if you add more.
Some of the more “controlling vs data ops” REST API functions aren’t implemented. Please file a PR if you need those.
The following functions are implemented:
DBI (REST)
DBI driver has been implemented using the Drill REST API, mostly to facilitate the dplyr interface. Use the RJDBC driver interface if you need more DBI functionality.dplyr interface). If you have custom Drill SQL functions that need to be implemented please file an issue on GitHub. Many should work without it, but some may require a custom interface.dplyr: (REST)
src_drill: Connect to Drill (using dplyr) + supporting functionsNote that a number of Drill SQL functions have been mapped to R functions (e.g. grepl) to make it easier to transition from non-database-backed SQL ops to Drill. See the help on drill_custom_functions for more info on these helper Drill custom function mappings.
