New features

Table 1 New functions in version 8.1.3

Feature

Description

Reference

Partition addition and partition table management are supported.

PERIOD (interval type) and TTL (interval type) are now available in partition management.

CREATE TABLE

ALTER TABLE

CREATE TABLE PARTITION

Support for foreign tables in JSON format

  1. READ ONLY HDFS foreign tables in JSON format are supported.
  2. READ ONLY OBS foreign tables in JSON file format are supported.

CREATE FOREIGN TABLE (SQL on Hadoop or OBS)

Cross-Cluster interconnection

  1. Constraints are removed:
    1. The hang constraint of GDS is removed.
    2. The constraints on common aggregation functions, such as sum, count, min, max, and avg are removed.
    3. The constraints on scalar functions and analytical functions are removed.
    4. The strong verification of the column names and column types of foreign tables and source tables is added.
    5. The constraint that the column name cannot contain WHERE is removed.
    6. The limit constraint is removed.
    7. The temporary GDS foreign table policy is improved.
  2. If the local cluster is the destination cluster, you can run the following statements:

GDS-based Cross-Cluster Interconnection

Enhanced cold and hot table functions

Automatic migration of cold and hot tables

CREATE TABLE

The row-store ring buffer is controlled by a switch.

The ring buffer is controlled by a switch and its threshold is adjustable. Batch update of large tables no longer uses the ring buffer.

buffer_ring_ratio

GDS supports the euro sign.

The GBK character set supports the euro sign.

CREATE DATABASE

OBS foreign tables support XSKY S3.

OBS foreign tables are adapted to XSKY and the parameter eol is added.

CREATE FOREIGN TABLE (SQL on Hadoop or OBS)

SQL supports Roaring Bitmaps.

The RoaringBitmap function is supported to better support common customer profile services of Internet services.

Bitmap Functions and Operators

RoaringBitmap

Case-insensitive is supported to improve Teradata compatibility.

When migrating data from Teradata to GaussDB(DWS), there is a lot of duplicate data in the source data with different letter cases. If GaussDB(DWS) removes duplicates using the distinct syntax, there will still be a significant amount of duplicate data remaining. Using the upper function to deduplicate the data will change the source data and require complex procedures and logic. To make things easier and reduce workload, GaussDB(DWS) now has a case-insensitive feature.

Collation Support

Collation Version Function

List partitioning

List partitioned tables are supported.

Enhanced MySQL compatibility

ALTER TABLE can modify multiple columns at a time.

ALTER TABLE supports COMMENT.

ALTER TABLE supports CHANGE, DROP KEY, DROP PARTITION, and FIRST/AFTER.

ALTER INDEX, CREATE INDEX

ALTER TABLE, CREATE TABLE

ALTER TABLE PARTITION

Projection pushdown

Unnecessary columns in a multi-column view are automatically deleted during reference to avoid redundant calculation.

Added the description for projection pushdown to rewrite_rule

Share scan

Share scan

Stream plan CTEs support share scan.

Added enable_stream_ctescan.

The value STREAM_CTESCAN is added to logging_module.

The optional [NOT] MATERIALIZED is added to the WITH clause in the SELECT syntax.

Bloom Filter for column-store tables

In a HASH JOIN, if the thread of the foreign table contains HDFS tables or column-store tables, the Bloom filter is triggered.

enable_bloom_filter

Column-store replication tables support UPDATE.

Replicated tables support UPDATE, DELETE, and MERGE INTO operations.

MERGE INTO

UPDATE

UPSERT

Fine-grained permission management

  1. Added the ALTER, DROP and VACUUM permissions at table level.
  2. Added the ALTER and DROP permissions at schema level.
  3. Add the preset roles role_signal_backend and role_read_all_stats.

The problem of the INSERT OVERWRITE deadlock on multiple CNs is fixed.

No deadlock occurs when INSERT OVERWRITE is triggered on multiple CNs at the same time.

-

Execution plan optimization

  • If the join conditions contain OR and the execution plan uses nestloop, the performance is poor. Therefore, the statement is changed to UNION ALL.
  • To join column-store tables, if the join or filter conditions contain OR, the OR conditions are pruned before join.
  • When large and small tables are joined across many DNs, the small table is broadcast instead of being redistributed.

Adjusting Key Parameters During SQL Tuning

Added projection_pushdown and or_conversion to rewrite_rule.

Relfile-based space statistics and space control

  1. The query results of the pg_table_size, pg_relation_size and table_skewness views can be returned in seconds.
  2. Schema space control can collect statistics on the full space and the constraints are removed.
  3. The user/schema space calibration functions can be quickly executed, and the schema space calibration function can be automatically executed.
  4. The SQL interface allocates space quota based on the total schema space instead of the DN level.

Enhanced performance fault locating and demarcation

  1. Enhanced communication exception monitoring logs
  2. Enhanced pgxc_stat_activity view
  3. Top SQL statements can be associated with unique SQL statements.
  4. Added the distributed view pg_session_wlmstat.

Resource load management optimization and reconstruction

  1. Enhanced user resource monitoring: The user resource monitoring logic is modified.
  2. Enhanced resource monitoring: Job and user resource monitoring is optimized, and queue-level resource monitoring is added.

Modified partition table features

  1. Changed the limit on the number of boundary values: The number of partitions in a partition table cannot exceed 32767, and the number of boundary values of all partitions cannot exceed 32767.
  2. The default partition creation policy is modified. When a partition table is created, two default partitions are created. The partition time range of the two default partitions is PERIOD.

CREATE TABLE PARTITION

Redistribution column hints are supported in the AGG process.

During data migration from Oracle data warehouses, you can manually specify the distribution column using enhanced hints.

Plan Hint Optimization

Stream Operation Hints

DDL lock timeout configuration

(added in 8.1.3.110)

To specify whether to report an error when the divisor is 0 in MySQL compatibility mode, the compatibility configuration item enable_division_by_zero_mysql is added to the behavior_compat_options parameter.

behavior_compat_options

DDL lock timeout configuration

(added in 8.1.3.200)

Added the GUC parameter ddl_lock_timeout, which specifies the DDL lock timeout interval.

ddl_lock_timeout

Enhanced the view PG_LOCKS. (added in 8.1.3.200)

  • Added the views PGXC_WAIT_DETAIL and PGXC_LOCKWAIT_DETAIL.
  • Add columns such as wait_on_pid and query_id.

Data masking compatibility configuration (added in 8.1.3.310)

The GUC parameter redact_compat_options is added to configure the compatibility of the data masking techniques.

Concurrent truncate, exchange, and select operations

(added in 8.1.3.320)

Added the GUC parameter ddl_select_concurrent_mode. This parameter is used to solve the problem that the query statement lasts for a long time and blocks DDL in the scenario where the data volume is large or the query is complex. The effect is the same as that of the Oracle database.

Application scenarios:

  • Concurrent truncate and select operations
  • Concurrent exchange and select operations

Scenario constraints:

  • Concurrency is not supported when there are conflicts with locks of higher levels (higher than level 1). For example, autoanalyze is triggered by select when autoanalyze_mode is set to normal.
  • Concurrency is not supported when there are conflicts with locks in transaction blocks.

Connection constraints:

  • When the JDBC, ODBC, or Python driver is used, if autocommit is set to false, this feature is not supported.
  • This feature is not supported by query statements delivered by Data Studio and auto-committed transactions.

ddl_select_concurrent_mode

Enabling of the early stop optimization for Limit statements

(added in 8.1.3.320)

Added the GUC parameter enable_limit_stop to specify whether to enable the early stop optimization for LIMIT statements.

enable_limit_stop

Early stop behavior change

(added in 8.1.3.322)

The default value of the GUC parameter enable_limit_stop is changed to on.

enable_limit_stop

normalize_negative_zero

(added in 8.1.3.333)

The behavior_compat_options parameter now includes the normalize_negative_zero option, which determines whether the ceil() and round() functions will return -0 for a given float value.

behavior_compat_options ("Developer Guide > GUC Parameters > Miscellaneous Parameters")

internal_compat_options

(added in 8.1.3.333)

A new GUC parameter internal_compat_options has been added to allow for configuration of the database compatibility behavior. The light_proxy_permission_compat option is used to configure the nested query permission in the light proxy scenario.

"GUC Parameters" > "Miscellaneous Parameters" in the Developer Guide

disable_client_detection_commit

(added in 8.1.3.333)

The behavior_compat_options parameter now includes the disable_client_detection_commit option, which determines whether the connection to the client is checked before committing each transaction.

behavior_compat_options ("Developer Guide > GUC Parameters > Miscellaneous Parameters")

enable_stream_ctescan (Disabled by default for new installation)

(modified in 8.1.3.333)

Modified the enable_stream_ctescan parameter. This parameter is forward-compatible after an upgrade and is disabled by default upon new installation.

"GUC Parameters" > "Optimizer Method Configuration" in Developer Guide

enable_trunc_orc_string

(added in 8.1.3.336)

Controls the foreign table query behavior when the foreign table field is in ORC format and the data type is varchar(n), but the field type in the ORC file is string and the length of the string exceeds n.

behavior_compat_options ("Developer Guide > GUC Parameters > Miscellaneous Parameters")

gds_fill_multi_missing_fields

(added in 8.1.3.336)

gds_fill_multi_missing_fields
