From Pika to GeminiDB Redis API

Updated on 2025-01-03 GMT+08:00

Pika is a persistent large-capacity Redis storage service. It breaks through the memory bottleneck of Redis due to the large amount of data. However, it is relatively weak in cluster management, and requires twemproxy or codis to shard static data. Compared with the Redis community edition, the database performance is significantly lowered because Pika stores all data in disks.

GeminiDB Redis API is a cloud-native NoSQL database with decoupled compute and storage and full compatibility with Redis. To ensure data security and reliability, it provides multi-copy, strict consistency based on a shared storage pool. It supports cold and hot data separation. Hot data can be read from the cache directly, improving read efficiency. RocksDB has been customized to allow the storage capacity to be scaled in seconds. A proxy is used to ensure that upper-layer applications are not affected by underlying sharding or scaling.

This section describes how to migrate data from Pika to GeminiDB Redis API.

Migration Principles

The pika-port tool is used and acts as a slave node of Pika and data is migrated in master/slave replication mode. The master Pika node compares pika-port with its own binlog offset to determine whether to perform full migration or incremental migration. If full migration is required, the master Pika node sends the full data snapshot to pika-port, and pika-port sends the parsed snapshot data to GeminiDB Redis API. After the full migration is complete, incremental migration starts. pika-port parses the incremental data and sends the data to GeminiDB Redis API in the form of Redis commands.

Figure 1 Migration Principles

Precautions

  • pika-migrate and pika-port act as the slave node of the source Pika and reads only full and incremental data without damaging your data.
  • The master/slave synchronization process between the source DB and pika-migrate and pika-port is added, which may affect the performance of the source DB.
  • Full and incremental migration can be performed without service interruption. Services are interrupted for a short period of time when services are switched over to GeminiDB Redis API.

Prerequisites

Deploy the migration tool pika-port to ensure that the network connection between the source DB and target Pika instance is normal.

Procedure

To migrate data from Pika to GeminiDB Redis API, choose Service Tickets > Create Service Ticket in the upper right corner of the management console and contact customer service.

Migration Performance Reference

  • Environment: Pika (single node) and pika-port are deployed on an ECS with 8 vCPUs and 32 GB memory on Huawei Cloud. The target DB is a three-node GeminiDB Redis instance with 8 vCPUs and 16 GB memory.
  • Preset data: Use the memtier_benchmark tool to preset 200 GB of data.
  • Migration performance: about 50,000 QPS.
