Morgan Jones 62bdae97bb Redis Clustering
Outlines the implementation of the clustering API for the Redis
database.  It is expected that implementing this blueprint will
consist primarily of implementing existing APIs for the experimental
Redis datastore.

Redis Clustering

https://blueprints.launchpad.net/trove/+spec/redis-cluster

Redis is a NoSQL database designed for high performance caching and persistence of key/value data. This document outlines a proposal for implementing clustering for Redis.

Problem Description

Implement clustering for Redis.

Proposed Change

The Redis clustering feature will strive to implement the minimum functionality required for a user to implement a Redis cluster in a Trove environment. While Trove will provide functionality to support operations not possible directly through the Redis API, functionality will be left to the user to perform via the Redis API wherever possible. This decision is based on the belief that it would be extremely difficult to provide all the required functionality through a web interface, and that Redis users will be familiar with the Redis command set.

Configuration

The following configuration values will be implemented in the Redis configuration group:

cfg.BoolOpt('cluster_support', default=True,
            help='Enable clusters to be created and managed.'),
cfg.StrOpt('api_strategy',
           default='trove.common.strategies.cluster.experimental.'
           'redis.api.RedisAPIStrategy',
           help='Class that implements datastore-specific API logic.'),
cfg.StrOpt('taskmanager_strategy',
           default='trove.common.strategies.cluster.experimental.redis.'
           'taskmanager.RedisTaskManagerStrategy',
           help='Class that implements datastore-specific task manager '
                'logic.'),
cfg.StrOpt('guestagent_strategy',
           default='trove.common.strategies.cluster.experimental.'
           'redis.guestagent.RedisGuestAgentStrategy',
           help='Class that implements datastore-specific Guest Agent API '
                'logic.'),

Database

No changes.

REST API

Create Cluster

The cluster-create command will allow the user to create a cluster with the specified number of master nodes. The data slots will be evenly divided between the created nodes.

Shrink Cluster

Work Items

  • implement clustering for Redis

implement new Taskmanager cluster strategy for Redis implement python API and shell for shrink/grow (this may be already done through cluster-scaling bp implementation) add grow/shrink to cluster strategy (in absence of scaling implementation) implement guest agent support for joining/leaving a cluster implement unit tests as appropriate implement int-test if the mechanism for doing so has been worked out by that time

Upgrade Implications

As this is a new implementation, no upgrade implications are envisioned.

Dependencies

Testing

  • Implementation of int-tests for clustering is still being worked out for MongoDB and Cassandra. It is expected that Redis will implement/run similar int-tests.

Documentation Impact

  • Datastore documentation for Redis will need to be updated to reflect clustering support.
