Accumulo has an iterator called the intersecting iterator which supports querying a term index that is partitioned by document, or “sharded”. This example shows how to use the intersecting iterator through these four programs:

  • Index.java - Indexes a set of text files into an Accumulo table
  • Query.java - Finds documents containing a given set of terms.
  • Reverse.java - Reads the index table and writes a map of documents to terms into another table.
  • ContinuousQuery.java Uses the table populated by Reverse.java to select N random terms per document. Then it continuously and randomly queries those terms.

To run these example programs, create two tables like below.

username@instance> createtable shard
username@instance shard> createtable doc2term

After creating the tables, index some files. The following command indexes all of the java files in the Accumulo source code.

$ cd /local/username/workspace/accumulo/
$ find core/src server/src -name "*.java" | xargs ./bin/accumulo org.apache.accumulo.examples.simple.shard.Index -i instance -z zookeepers -t shard -u username -p password --partitions 30

The following command queries the index to find all files containing ‘foo’ and ‘bar’.

$ cd $ACCUMULO_HOME
$ ./bin/accumulo org.apache.accumulo.examples.simple.shard.Query -i instance -z zookeepers -t shard -u username -p password foo bar

In order to run ContinuousQuery, we need to run Reverse.java to populate doc2term.

$ ./bin/accumulo org.apache.accumulo.examples.simple.shard.Reverse -i instance -z zookeepers --shardTable shard --doc2Term doc2term -u username -p password

Below ContinuousQuery is run using 5 terms. So it selects 5 random terms from each document, then it continually randomly selects one set of 5 terms and queries. It prints the number of matching documents and the time in seconds.

$ ./bin/accumulo org.apache.accumulo.examples.simple.shard.ContinuousQuery -i instance -z zookeepers --shardTable shard --doc2Term doc2term -u username -p password --terms 5
