Dimension Table

Function

Create a Doris dimension table to connect to the source streams for wide table generation.

Prerequisites

• An enhanced datasource connection has been created for DLI to connect to HBase, so that jobs can run on the dedicated queue of DLI and you can set the security group rules as required.
  • For details about how to set up an enhanced datasource connection, see Enhanced Datasource Connections.
  • For details about how to configure security group rules, see Security Group Overview.
• If MRS Doris is used, IP addresses of all hosts in the MRS cluster have been added to host information of the enhanced datasource connection.

  For details, see Modifying Host Information.

• Kerberos authentication is disabled for the cluster (the cluster is in normal mode).

  After connecting to Doris as user admin, create a role with administrator permissions, and bind the role to the user.

Caveats

• When you create a Flink OpenSource SQL job, set Flink Version to 1.15 in the Running Parameters tab. Select Save Job Log, and specify the OBS bucket for saving job logs.
• Storing authentication credentials such as usernames and passwords in code or plaintext poses significant security risks. It is recommended using DEW to manage credentials instead. Storing encrypted credentials in configuration files or environment variables and decrypting them when needed ensures security. For details, see Flink OpenSource SQL Jobs Using DEW to Manage Access Credentials.
• Kerberos authentication is disabled for the cluster (the cluster is in normal mode).
• Doris table names are case sensitive.
• When Doris of CloudTable is used, set the port number in the fenodes field to 8030, for example, xx:8030. In addition, enable ports 8030, 8040, and 9030 in the security group.
• After HTTPS is enabled, add the following configuration parameters to the with clause for creating a table:
  • 'doris.enable.https' = 'true'
  • 'doris.ignore.https.ca' = 'true'

Syntax

create table hbaseSource (
  attr_name attr_type 
  (',' attr_name attr_type)* 
 )
with (
  'connector' = 'doris',
  'fenodes' = 'FE_IP:PORT,FE_IP:PORT,FE_IP:PORT',
  'table.identifier' = 'database.table',
  'username' = 'dorisUsername',
  'password' = 'dorisPassword'
);

Parameter Description

Shared configuration

Example

This example reads data from a Doris source table and inputs it into the Print connector.

1. Create an enhanced datasource connection in the VPC and subnet where Doris locates, and bind the connection to the required Flink elastic resource pool. For details, see Enhanced Datasource Connections. Add MRS host information for the enhanced datasource connection. For details, see Modifying Host Information.
2. Set Doris and Kafka security groups and add inbound rules to allow access from the Flink queue. Test the connectivity using the Doris and Kafka addresses by referring to Testing Address Connectivity. If the connection passes the test, it is bound to the queue.
3. Create a Doris table and insert 10 data records by referring to MRS Doris Usage Guide. The creation statement is as follows:

   CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS dorisdemo
   (
     `user_id` varchar(10) NOT NULL,
     `city` varchar(10),
     `age` int,
     `gender` int
   )
   DISTRIBUTED BY HASH(`user_id`) BUCKETS 10;
   
   INSERT INTO dorisdemo VALUES ('user1', 'city1', 20, 1);
   INSERT INTO dorisdemo VALUES ('user2', 'city2', 21, 0);
   INSERT INTO dorisdemo VALUES ('user3', 'city3', 22, 1);
   INSERT INTO dorisdemo VALUES ('user4', 'city4', 23, 0);
   INSERT INTO dorisdemo VALUES ('user5', 'city5', 24, 1);
   INSERT INTO dorisdemo VALUES ('user6', 'city6', 25, 0);
   INSERT INTO dorisdemo VALUES ('user7', 'city7', 26, 1);
   INSERT INTO dorisdemo VALUES ('user8', 'city8', 27, 0);
   INSERT INTO dorisdemo VALUES ('user9', 'city9', 28, 1);
   INSERT INTO dorisdemo VALUES ('user10', 'city10', 29, 0);

4. Create a Flink OpenSource SQL job. Enter the following job script and submit the job. This job simulates reading data from Kafka, performs a join with a Doris dimension table to denormalize the data, and outputs it to Print.

   CREATE TABLE ordersSource (
     user_id string,
     user_name string,
     proctime as Proctime()
   ) WITH (
     'connector' = 'kafka',
     'topic' = 'kafka-topic',
     'properties.bootstrap.servers' = 'kafkaIp:port,kafkaIp:port,kafkaIp:port',
     'properties.group.id' = 'GroupId',
     'scan.startup.mode' = 'latest-offset',
     'format' = 'json'
   );
   
   CREATE TABLE dorisDemo (
     `user_id` String NOT NULL,
     `city` String,
     `age` int,
     `gender` int
   ) with (
     'connector' = 'doris',
     'fenodes' = 'IP address of the FE instance:Port number',
     'table.identifier' = 'demo.dorisdemo',
     'username' = 'dorisUsername',
     'password' = 'dorisPassword',
     'lookup.cache.ttl'='10 m',
     'lookup.cache.max-rows' = '100'
   );
   
   CREATE TABLE print (
     user_id string,
     user_name string,
     `city` String,
     `age` int,
     `gender` int
   ) WITH (
     'connector' = 'print'
   );
   
   insert into print 
   select 
     orders.user_id,
     orders.user_name,
     dim.city,
     dim.age,
     dim.sex
   from ordersSource orders
   left join dorisDemo for system_time as of orders.proctime as dim on orders.user_id = dim.user_id;

5. Write two data records to the Kafka data source.

   {"user_id": "user1", "user_name": "name1"}
   {"user_id": "user2", "user_name": "name2"}

6. View the data in the Print result table.

   +I[user1, name1, city1, 20, 1]
   +I[user2, name2, city2, 21, 0]
