OpenST Storage

OpenST Storage contains DB storage libraries and respective services. It also contains data sharding libraries and services. While OpenST Storage is available as-is for anyone to use, we caution that this is early stage software and under heavy ongoing development and improvement. Please report bugs and suggested improvements.

Constructor parameters:

There is 1 parameter required while creating the storage implementer.

  let shardManagementObj = ddbServiceObj.shardManagement();
  let autoScalingObj = storage.autoScalingService;

Run shard migration

  Shard migration params ddbServiceObj and autoScalingObj

// Run Shard Migration
// Created available_shards and managed_shards table
shardManagementObj.runShardMigration(ddbServiceObj, autoScalingObj);

  params.shard_name(String) - Shard name to be added
  params.entity_type(String) - Entity type to be assigned to shard

// Add Shard
// Creates item in available_shards table
shardManagementObj.addShard(addShardParams);

Configure shard

  configureShardParams as JSON params
  params.shard_name(String) - Shard name to be added
  params.allocation_type(Enum) - Allocation type of Shard :- if
   enabled: Provided shard is available for multiple assignment,
   disabled: Provided shard is dedicated shard for single identifier

// Configure Enable/Disable allocation type
shardManagementObj.configureShard(configureShardParams);

  assignShardParams as JSON params
  params.identifier(String) - Identifier to be assigned to shard   params.shard_name(String) - Shard name to be assigned
  params.entity_type(String) - Entity type of the shard
  params.force_assignment(Boolean) - (Optional default: false) Pass true if shard is dedicated and assignment needs to be done.

Steps for Adding and Configuring New Shard

1. Call runShardMigration if shard migrations are not done already. ApiRef
   This will create available_shards and managed_shards table in DynamoDB.
2. Create Shard Table. ApiRef
3. Call addShard api. This will add a item in available_shards table. Shard will be added in disabled state. ApiRef
4. Call configureShard with allocation_type='enabled' if it's a shared shard. For dedicated shard keep allocation_type='disabled'. ApiRef
5. Call assignShard to assign shard to a client/identifier. This creates an item in managed_shards table. ApiRef
6. Call getManagedShard to get shardName for a client/identifier. ApiRef
