> Surrogate keys is an ability to generate and use unique integers for each row
> in a table. If we have that ability then in conjunction with default clause
> we can get surrogate keys functionality. Consider following ddl:
> create table t1 (a string, b bigint default unique_long());
> We already have default clause wherein you can specify a function to provide
> values. So, what we need is udf which can generate unique longs for each row
> across queries for a table.
> Idea is to use write_id . This is a column in metastore table TXN_COMPONENTS
> whose value is determined at compile time to be used during query execution.
> Each query execution generates a new write_id. So, we can seed udf with this
> value during compilation.
> Then we statically allocate ranges for each task from which it can draw next
> long. So, lets say 64-bit write_id we divy up such that last 24 bits belong
> to original usage of it that is txns. Next 16 bits are used for task_attempts
> and last 24 bits to generate new long for each row. This implies we can allow
> 17M txns, 65K tasks and 17M rows in a task. If you hit any of those limits we
> can fail the query.
> Implementation wise: serialize write_id in initialize() of udf. Then during
> execute() we find out what task_attempt current task is and use it along with
> write_id() to get starting long and give a new value on each invocation of
> execute().
> Here we are assuming write_id can be determined at compile time, which should
> be the case but we need to figure out how to get handle to it.
