Sun Storage T ek 5800 System Client API The Sun TM StorageTek TM 5800 system client API provides programmatic access to a 5800 system server to store, retrieve, query, and delete object data and metadata. Synchronous versions are provided in C and J ava TM languages. A future release will implement a non-blocking C API for use with POSIX operations[...]

In 5800 system version 1.1, an attempt to store a value that is longer than the associated eld generates an immediate error. 5800 S yst em O v er view This section provides an overviews of the 5800 system, the 5800 system history, and a summaries of the key points of the 5800 system usage model. The following topics are discussed: ■ “5800 Sy[...]

This chapter provides a summary of key points of the 5800 system usage model that are useful for understanding either API. In the following sections, the terms from the J ava API are used as an aid to exposition. In all cases, a simple equivalent using the C API is available. ■ Chapter 4, “Sun StorageTek 5800 System Query Language, ” provides[...]

Read-M ultiple (WORM) archive. Each object corresponds to a single stream of data and a single set of metadata; there are no “grouped objects” or “compound objects” other than by application convention. Each object corresponds to a single stream of data and a single set of metadata. There are no “grouped objects” or “compound objects?[...]

The 5800 S y stem Metadata Model M etadata means “data about the data”; it describes the data and helps to determine how the data should be interpreted. In addition, metadata can be used to facilitate querying the 5800 system for objects that match a particular set of search criteria. For the 5800 system, the supported metadata option is in the[...]

The metadata associated with an object is immutable. There is no operation to modify the metadata associated with an object after the object has been stored. Instead, the storeMetadata operation can be used to create a completely new object by associating new user metadata with the underlying data and system-metadata of an existing object. The stor[...]

Query expressions can use much of the power of Structured Query Language (SQL). Each query expression combines SQL functions and operators, eld names from the metadata schema, and literal values. There are no query expressions that select objects based on the data stored in the object itself; all queries apply only to the metadata elds associ[...]

Note – The format of records as stored in the reliable and scalable object archive is not suitable for fast query. To enable searching, the queryable elds from the metadata are indexed in a query engine that can provide fast and exible query services. The query engine is basically an SQL database. This is why the 5800 system's query la[...]

match the original object metadata. There are no transactional guarantees regarding ordering of queries and delete operations that are occurring at the same time. If an object is being deleted at the same time that a query that matches that object is being performed, then that object may or may not show up in the query result set, with no guarantee[...]

The 5800 system J ava client library provides a platform-independent mechanism to upload data and metadata to a 5800 system, and to retrieve and query the data and metadata. The J ava client library works with any implementation of J2SE TM platform 4.0 or later with HTTP connectivity to the 5800 system cluster. A ccess is designed to be high-level [...]

Updating Client Vie w of the Schema In the J ava client API, the schema is fetched when the NameValueObjectArchive class is instantiated. If the schema has changed, the client application needs to create a new NameValueArchive . A local copy of the schema is used for some metadata operations. Jav a Client Application Deployment J ava applications u[...]

Basic C oncepts The root of the 5800 system J ava client API is the NameValueObjectArchive class, which represents a connection to a single 5800 system server. All operations are initiated by invoking methods on a NameValueObjectArchive instance after initializing it with the address of a cluster. The fact that a cluster of machines, rather than a [...]

Sun Storage T ek 5800 System C Client API This chapter provides detailed information on the 5800 system C client API. The following topics are discussed: ■ “Overview of the 5800 System C Client API” on page 39 ■ “C Client A pplication Deployment” on page 43 ■ “N onblocking C API” on page 43 ■ “Synchronous C API” on page 44 ?[...]

Architecture The 5800 system C API client supports two dierent access patterns: a synchronous “EZ” access very similar to the current J ava implementation, and a more exible, nonblocking access based on the POSIX model. Note – For this release, the nonblocking C API client is not implemented. Inter faces The C client library interacts w[...]

Memor y Usage The 5800 system C client library generally follows the model of populating externally allocated data structures such as handles, buers, and result arrays.

Sun Storage T ek 5800 Syst em Quer y Language This chapter provides information on the 5800 system query language.

The following topics are dis[...]

Opera tion The query format is similar to the where clause of an SQL query. The two main dierences are that 5800 system queries do not contain embedded subqueries, and that the only “columns” that are available are the attributes dened in the 5800 system schema. Many features of the underlying metadata database’ s own query language can[...]

Queries A query in the 5800 system query language is translated into an equivalent query for the underlying database that implements the query engine. The database used in a live 5800 system is Sun's High A vailability Database (H ADB). The database used by the 5800 system emulator is A pache TM Derby. Since the SQL query language used by H AD[...]

SQL Syntax in 5800 S ystem Queries General Unicode characters outside of the ASCII range in queries are allowed in only two places to the 5800 system. Specically, both attribute names and literal values may contain general Unicode characters. All text that is not either an attribute name nor a literal value is passed unchanged to the underlying [...]

Liter als for 5800 S yst em Data T ypes For each 5800 system data type, there is a syntax to include literals of that type in a query string. The syntax is {type_name ’ stringliteral ’ } . For example, consider the query: timestamp_field<{timestamp ’ 2006-10-26T12:00:00Z ’ } In particular, this syntax can be used to query for a particula[...]
