Fetch new data from kinesis for every minute.

pranathisg97 — Wed, 15 Feb 2023 12:59:57 GMT

I want to fetch new data from kinesis source for every minute.

I'm using "minFetchPeriod" option and specified 60s. But this doesn't seem to be working.

Streaming query:

spark \

.readStream \

.format("kinesis") \

.option("streamName", kinesis_stream_name) \

.option("region", region name) \

.option("initial Position", "latest") \

.option("awsAccessKey", awsAccessKey) \

.option("awsSecretKey", aws_secret_access_key)\

.option("minFetchPeriod","60s")

Can anyone help me on this ? I'm new to this topic.

Hi, DBR is 12.1

Error : "java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: maxFetchDuration needs to be a duration string such as '10s' for 10 seconds or '2m' for 2 minutes. Also needs to be greater than minFetchPeriod in order to avoid falling behind in the stream".

Do I have to configure maxFetchDuration whenever I configure minFetchPeriod ?

Hi,

I was able to solve the issue by specifying maxFetchDuration value more than minFetchPeriod. However I didn't get the purpose of specifying maxFetchDuration value greater than or equal to minFetchPeriod value.

spark \

.readStream \

.format("kinesis") \

.option("streamName", kinesis_stream_name) \

.option("region", region name) \

.option("initial Position", "latest") \

.option("awsAccessKey", awsAccessKey) \

.option("awsSecretKey", aws_secret_access_key)\

.option("maxFetchDuration","60s")\

.option("minFetchPeriod","60s")

I would like to share the following docs with best practices when using kinesis https://docs.databricks.com/structured-streaming/kinesis-best-practices.html please check this doc. it will help you to undertand what does maxFetchDuration does.

Hi @Jose Gonzalez ,

Thanks for sharing the document. I would like to share my understanding from the document. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

minFetchPeriod is the time interval between consecutive pre-fetch between kinesis and spark. maxFetchDuration is the how long the pre-fetched data will be stored in buffer. In my case, after 60s data will be available to process.

But how the data from kinesis is pre-fetched?

Hi, What is the DBR you are running on it? Also, what is the error you get when it is not working?
