zeekay 073c1bf61e rename: zero ClickHouse — datastore_driver speaks X-Datastore-*
The wire protocol was the last holdout and it was not cosmetic: the Hanzo
Datastore server reads X-Datastore-User, and answers a request bearing
X-ClickHouse-User with 401. Verified against the live server, both directions.
So a client still sending the old headers is not merely off-brand, it cannot
authenticate over HTTP.

Everything else follows: types, dialects, error modules, docstrings and doc
links now name Datastore, and doc URLs point at docs.hanzo.ai/datastore rather
than the upstream vendor's site. Zero occurrences of the old name remain.

Still cut from the pinned upstream version, so behaviour is unchanged.

Performance
===========
This section compares datastore-driver performance over Native interface
with TSV and JSONEachRow formats available over HTTP interface.
datastore-driver returns already parsed row items in Python data types.
Driver performs all transformation for you.
When you read data over HTTP you may need to cast strings into Python types.
Test data
---------
Sample data for testing is taken from `Datastore docs <https://docs.hanzo.ai/datastore/en/getting-started/example-datasets/ontime>`_.

Download some data for 2017 year:
.. code-block:: bash
for s in `seq 2017 2017`
do
for m in `seq 1 12`
do
wget https://transtats.bts.gov/PREZIP/On_Time_Reporting_Carrier_On_Time_Performance_1987_present_${s}_${m}.zip

Insert data into Datastore:
.. code-block:: bash
for i in *.zip; do echo $i; unzip -cq $i '*.csv' | sed 's/\.00//g' | datastore-client --query="INSERT INTO perftest.ontime FORMAT CSVWithNames"; done
Required packages
-----------------
.. code-block:: bash
pip install datastore-driver requests datastore-connect
For fast json parsing we'll use ``ujson`` package:
.. code-block:: bash
pip install ujson
Installed packages: ::
$ pip freeze
backports.zoneinfo==0.2.1
certifi==2022.12.7
charset-normalizer==3.0.1
datastore-connect==0.5.0
datastore-driver==0.2.5
idna==3.4
lz4==4.3.2
pytz==2022.7.1
pytz-deprecation-shim==0.1.0.post0
requests==2.28.2
tzdata==2022.7
tzlocal==4.2
ujson==5.7.0
urllib3==1.26.14
zstandard==0.19.0
For ``datastore-connect`` we need to turn off compression with
``compress=False`` for elimination decompression overhead. This package also
adds ``LIMIT`` clause to the query by default.
Let's disable it off with ``query_limit=None``.
Versions

Benchmarking
------------
Let's pick number of rows for testing with ``datastore-client``.
.. code-block:: sql
SELECT count() FROM ontime WHERE FlightDate < '2017-01-04'
45202
.. code-block:: sql
SELECT count() FROM ontime WHERE FlightDate < '2017-01-10'
131848
.. code-block:: sql
SELECT count() FROM ontime WHERE FlightDate < '2017-01-16'
217015
.. code-block:: sql
SELECT count() FROM ontime WHERE FlightDate < '2017-02-01'
450017
.. code-block:: sql
SELECT count() FROM ontime WHERE FlightDate < '2017-02-18'

Scripts below can be benchmarked with following one-liner:
.. code-block:: bash
for d in 2017-01-04 2017-01-10 2017-01-16 2017-02-01 2017-02-18; do /usr/bin/time -f "%e s / %M kB" python script.py $d; done
Time will measure:
* elapsed real (wall clock) time used by the process, in seconds;
* maximum resident set size of the process during its lifetime, in kilobytes.
Plain text without parsing
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Let's take get plain text response from Datastore server as baseline.
Fetching not parsed data with pure requests (1)
.. literalinclude:: ../perf/script_01.py
:language: python
Parsed rows
^^^^^^^^^^^
Line split into elements will be consider as "parsed" for TSV format (2)
.. literalinclude:: ../perf/script_02.py
:language: python
Now we cast each element to it's data type (2.5)
.. literalinclude:: ../perf/script_02_5.py
:language: python
JSONEachRow format can be loaded with json loads (3)
.. literalinclude:: ../perf/script_03.py
:language: python

Iteration over rows
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Iteration over TSV (5)
.. literalinclude:: ../perf/script_05.py

Conclusion
----------
If you need to get significant number of rows from Datastore server **as text** then TSV format is your choice.
See **Iteration over string rows** results.
But if you need to manipulate over python data types then you should take a look on drivers with Native format.
For most data types driver uses binary :func:`~struct.pack` / :func:`~struct.unpack` for serialization / deserialization.
Which is obviously faster than ``cls() for x in lst``. See (2.5) and (5.5).
It doesn't matter which interface to use if you manipulate small amount of rows.
