Apache Presto – Overview

Data analytics is the process of analyzing raw data to gather relevant information for better decision making. It is primarily used in many organizations to make business decisions. Well, big data analytics involves a large amount of data and this process is quite complex, hence companies use different strategies.

For example, Facebook is one of the leading data driven and largest data warehouse company in the world. Facebook warehouse data is stored in Hadoop for large scale computation. Later, when warehouse data grew to petabytes, they decided to develop a new system with low latency. In the year of 2012, Facebook team members designed “Presto” for interactive query analytics that would operate quickly even with petabytes of data.

What is Apache Presto?

Apache Presto is a distributed parallel query execution engine, optimized for low latency and interactive query analysis. Presto runs queries easily and scales without down time even from gigabytes to petabytes.

A single Presto query can process data from multiple sources like HDFS, MySQL, Cassandra, Hive and many more data sources. Presto is built in Java and easy to integrate with other data infrastructure components. Presto is powerful, and leading companies like Airbnb, DropBox, Groupon, Netflix are adopting it.

Presto − Features

Presto contains the following features −

• Simple and extensible architecture.
• Pluggable connectors – Presto supports pluggable connector to provide metadata and data for queries.
• Pipelined executions – Avoids unnecessary I/O latency overhead.
• User-defined functions – Analysts can create custom user-defined functions to migrate easily.
• Vectorized columnar processing.

Presto − Benefits

Here is a list of benefits that Apache Presto offers −

• Specialized SQL operations
• Easy to install and debug
• Simple storage abstraction
• Quickly scales petabytes data with low latency

Presto − Applications

Presto supports most of today’s best industrial applications. Let’s take a look at some of the notable applications.

• Facebook − Facebook built Presto for data analytics needs. Presto easily scales large velocity of data.

• Teradata − Teradata provides end-to-end solutions in Big Data analytics and data warehousing. Teradata contribution to Presto makes it easier for more companies to enable all analytical needs.

• Airbnb − Presto is an integral part of the Airbnb data infrastructure. Well, hundreds of employees are running queries each day with the technology.

Why Presto?

Presto supports standard ANSI SQL which has made it very easy for data analysts and developers. Though it is built in Java, it avoids typical issues of Java code related to memory allocation and garbage collection. Presto has a connector architecture that is Hadoop friendly. It allows to easily plug in file systems.

Presto runs on multiple Hadoop distributions. In addition, Presto can reach out from a Hadoop platform to query Cassandra, relational databases, or other data stores. This cross-platform analytic capability allows Presto users to extract maximum business value from gigabytes to petabytes of data.

Apache Presto – Architecture

The architecture of Presto is almost similar to classic MPP (massively parallel processing) DBMS architecture. The following diagram illustrates the architecture of Presto.

The above diagram consists of different components. Following table describes each of the component in detail.

Presto − Workflow

Presto is a distributed system that runs on a cluster of nodes. Presto’s distributed query engine is optimized for interactive analysis and supports standard ANSI SQL, including complex queries, aggregations, joins, and window functions. Presto architecture is simple and extensible. Presto client (CLI) submits SQL statements to a master daemon coordinator.

The scheduler connects through execution pipeline. The scheduler assigns work to nodes which is closest to the data and monitors progress. The coordinator assigns task to multiple worker nodes and finally the worker node delivers the result back to the client. The client pulls data from the output process. Extensibility is the key design. Pluggable connectors like Hive, HBase, MySQL, etc., provides metadata and data for queries. Presto was designed with a “simple storage abstraction” that makes it easy to provide SQL query capability against these different kind of data sources.

Execution Model

Presto supports custom query and execution engine with operators designed to support SQL semantics. In addition to improved scheduling, all processing is in memory and pipelined across the network between different stages. This avoids unnecessary I/O latency overhead.

Apache Presto – Installation

This chapter will explain how to install Presto on your machine. Let’s go through the basic requirements of Presto,

• Linux or Mac OS
• Java version 8

Now, let’s continue the following steps to install Presto on your machine.

Verifying Java installation

Hopefully, you have already installed Java version 8 on your machine right now, so you just verify it using the following command.

$ java -version 

If Java is successfully installed on your machine, you could see the version of installed Java. If Java is not installed, follow the subsequent steps to install Java 8 on your machine.

Download JDK. Download the latest version of JDK by visiting the following link.

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html

The latest version is JDK 8u 92 and the file is “jdk-8u92-linux-x64.tar.gz”. Please download the file on your machine.

After that, extract the files and move to the specific directory.

Then set Java alternatives. Finally Java will be installed on your machine.

Apache Presto Installation

Download the latest version of Presto by visiting the following link,

https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/facebook/presto/presto-server/0.149/

Now the latest version of “presto-server-0.149.tar.gz” will be downloaded on your machine.

Extract tar Files

Extract the tar file using the following command −

$ tar  -zxf  presto-server-0.149.tar.gz 
$ cd presto-server-0.149 

Configuration Settings

Create “data” directory

Create a data directory outside the installation directory, which will be used for storing logs, metadata, etc., so that it is to be easily preserved when upgrading Presto. It is defined using the following code −

$ cd  
$ mkdir data

To view the path where it is located, use the command “pwd”. This location will be assigned in the next node.properties file.

Create “etc” directory

Create an etc directory inside Presto installation directory using the following code −

$ cd presto-server-0.149 
$ mkdir etc

This directory will hold configuration files. Let’s create each file one by one.

Node Properties

Presto node properties file contains environmental configuration specific to each node. It is created inside etc directory (etc/node.properties) using the following code −

$ cd etc 
$ vi node.properties  

node.environment = production 
node.id = ffffffff-ffff-ffff-ffff-ffffffffffff 
node.data-dir = /Users/../workspace/Presto

After making all the changes, save the file, and quit the terminal. Here node.data is the location path of the above created data directory. node.id represents the unique identifier for each node.

JVM Config

Create a file “jvm.config” inside etc directory (etc/jvm.config). This file contains a list of command line options used for launching the Java Virtual Machine.

$ cd etc 
$ vi jvm.config  

-server 
-Xmx16G 
-XX:+UseG1GC 
-XX:G1HeapRegionSize = 32M 
-XX:+UseGCOverheadLimit 
-XX:+ExplicitGCInvokesConcurrent 
-XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError 
-XX:OnOutOfMemoryError = kill -9 %p 

After making all the changes, save the file, and quit the terminal.

Config Properties

Create a file “config.properties” inside etc directory(etc/config.properties). This file contains the configuration of Presto server. If you are setting up a single machine for testing, Presto server can function only as the coordination process as defined using the following code −

$ cd etc 
$ vi config.properties  

coordinator = true 
node-scheduler.include-coordinator = true 
http-server.http.port = 8080 
query.max-memory = 5GB 
query.max-memory-per-node = 1GB 
discovery-server.enabled = true 
discovery.uri = http://localhost:8080

Here,

• coordinator − master node.

• node-scheduler.include-coordinator − Allows scheduling work on the coordinator.

• http-server.http.port − Specifies the port for the HTTP server.

• query.max-memory=5GB − The maximum amount of distributed memory.

• query.max-memory-per-node=1GB − The maximum amount of memory per node.

• discovery-server.enabled − Presto uses the Discovery service to find all the nodes in the cluster.

• discovery.uri − he URI to the Discovery server.

If you are setting up multiple machine Presto server, Presto will function as both coordination and worker process. Use this configuration setting to test Presto server on multiple machines.

Configuration for Coordinator

$ cd etc 
$ vi config.properties  

coordinator = true 
node-scheduler.include-coordinator = false 
http-server.http.port = 8080 
query.max-memory = 50GB 
query.max-memory-per-node = 1GB 
discovery-server.enabled = true 
discovery.uri = http://localhost:8080 

Configuration for Worker

$ cd etc 
$ vi config.properties  

coordinator = false 
http-server.http.port = 8080 
query.max-memory = 50GB 
query.max-memory-per-node = 1GB 
discovery.uri = http://localhost:8080

Log Properties

Create a file “log.properties” inside etc directory(etc/log.properties). This file contains minimum log level for named logger hierarchies. It is defined using the following code −

$ cd etc 
$ vi log.properties  
com.facebook.presto = INFO

Save the file and quit the terminal. Here, four log levels are used such as DEBUG, INFO, WARN and ERROR. Default log level is INFO.

Catalog Properties

Create a directory “catalog” inside etc directory(etc/catalog). This will be used for mounting data. For example, create etc/catalog/jmx.properties with the following contents to mount the jmx connector as the jmx catalog −

$ cd etc 
$ mkdir catalog 
$ cd catalog 
$ vi jmx.properties  
connector.name = jmx 

Start Presto

Presto can be started using the following command,

$ bin/launcher start 

Then you will see the response similar to this,

Started as 840

Run Presto

To launch Presto server, use the following command −

$ bin/launcher run

After successfully launching Presto server, you can find log files in “var/log” directory.

• launcher.log − This log is created by the launcher and is connected to the stdout and stderr streams of the server.

• server.log − This is the main log file used by Presto.

• http-request.log − HTTP request received by the server.

As of now, you have successfully installed Presto configuration settings on your machine. Let’s continue the steps to install Presto CLI.

Install Presto CLI

The Presto CLI provides a terminal-based interactive shell for running queries.

Download the Presto CLI by visiting the following link,

https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/facebook/presto/presto-cli/0.149/

Now “presto-cli-0.149-executable.jar” will be installed on your machine.

Run CLI

After downloading the presto-cli, copy it to the location which you want to run it from. This location may be any node that has network access to the coordinator. First change the name of the Jar file to Presto. Then make it executable with chmod + x command using the following code −

$ mv presto-cli-0.149-executable.jar presto  
$ chmod +x presto

Now execute CLI using the following command,

./presto --server localhost:8080 --catalog jmx --schema default  
Here jmx(Java Management Extension) refers to catalog and default referes to schema. 

You will see the following response,

 presto:default>

Now type “jps” command on your terminal and you will see the running daemons.

Stop Presto

After having performed all the executions, you can stop the presto server using the following command −

$ bin/launcher stop 

Apache Presto – Configuration Settings

This chapter will discuss the configuration settings for Presto.

Presto Verifier

The Presto Verifier can be used to test Presto against another database (such as MySQL), or to test two Presto clusters against each other.

Create Database in MySQL

Open MySQL server and create a database using the following command.

create database test 

Now you have created “test” database in the server. Create the table and load it with the following query.

CREATE TABLE verifier_queries( 
   id INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, 
   suite VARCHAR(256) NOT NULL, 
   name VARCHAR(256), 
   test_catalog VARCHAR(256) NOT NULL, 
   test_schema VARCHAR(256) NOT NULL, 
   test_prequeries TEXT, 
   test_query TEXT NOT NULL, 
   test_postqueries TEXT, 
   test_username VARCHAR(256) NOT NULL default ''verifier-test'', 
   test_password VARCHAR(256), 
   control_catalog VARCHAR(256) NOT NULL, 
   control_schema VARCHAR(256) NOT NULL, 
   control_prequeries TEXT, 
   control_query TEXT NOT NULL, 
   control_postqueries TEXT, 
   control_username VARCHAR(256) NOT NULL default ''verifier-test'', 
   control_password VARCHAR(256), 
   session_properties_json TEXT,            
   PRIMARY KEY (id) 
);

Add Config Settings

Create a properties file to configure the verifier −

$ vi config.properties  

suite = mysuite 
query-database = jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/tutorials?user=root&password=pwd 
control.gateway = jdbc:presto://localhost:8080 
test.gateway = jdbc:presto://localhost:8080 
thread-count = 1 

Here, in the query-database field, enter the following details − mysql database name, user name, and password.

Download JAR File

Download Presto-verifier jar file by visiting the following link,

https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/facebook/presto/presto-verifier/0.149/

Now the version “presto-verifier-0.149-executable.jar” is downloaded on your machine.

Execute JAR

Execute the JAR file using the following command,

$ mv presto-verifier-0.149-executable.jar verifier  
$ chmod+x verifier 

Run Verifier

Run the verifier using the following command,

$ ./verifier config.properties 

Create Table

Let’s create a simple table in “test” database using the following query.

create table product(id int not null, name varchar(50))

Insert Table

After creating a table, insert two records using the following query,

insert into product values(1,’Phone'') 
insert into product values(2,’Television’)

Run Verifier Query

Execute the following sample query in the verifier terminal (./verifier config.propeties) to check the verifier result.

Sample Query

insert into verifier_queries (suite, test_catalog, test_schema, test_query, 
control_catalog, control_schema, control_query) values 
(''mysuite'', ''mysql'', ''default'', ''select * from mysql.test.product'', 
''mysql'', ''default'', ''select * from mysql.test.product'');

Here, select * from mysql.test.product query refers to mysql catalog, test is database name and product is table name. In this way, you can access mysql connector using Presto server.

Here, two same select queries are tested against each other to see the performance. Similarly, you can run other queries to test the performance results. You can also connect two Presto clusters to check the performance results.

Apache Presto – Administration Tools

In this chapter, we will discuss the administration tools used in Presto. Let’s start with the Web Interface of Presto.

Web Interface

Presto provides a web interface for monitoring and managing queries. It can be accessed from the port number specified in the coordinator Config Properties.

Start Presto server and Presto CLI. Then you can access the web interface from the following url − http://localhost:8080/

The output will be similar to the above screen.

Here, the main page has a list of queries along with information like unique query ID, query text, query state, percentage completed, username and source from which this query is originated. Latest queries are running first, then completed or not completed queries are displayed at the bottom.

Tuning the Performance on Presto

If Presto cluster is having any performance-related issues, change your default configuration settings to the following settings.

Config Properties

• task. info -refresh-max-wait − Reduces coordinator work load.

• task.max-worker-threads − Splits the process and assigns to each worker nodes.

• distributed-joins-enabled − Hash-based distributed joins.

• node-scheduler.network-topology − Sets network topology to scheduler.

JVM Settings

Change your default JVM settings to the following settings. This will be helpful for diagnosing garbage collection issues.

-XX:+PrintGCApplicationConcurrentTime 
-XX:+PrintGCApplicationStoppedTime 
-XX:+PrintGCCause 
-XX:+PrintGCDateStamps 
-XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps 
-XX:+PrintGCDetails 
-XX:+PrintReferenceGC 
-XX:+PrintClassHistogramAfterFullGC 
-XX:+PrintClassHistogramBeforeFullGC 
-XX:PrintFLSStatistics = 2 
-XX:+PrintAdaptiveSizePolicy 
-XX:+PrintSafepointStatistics 
-XX:PrintSafepointStatisticsCount = 1

Apache Presto – MySQL Connector

The MySQL connector is used to query an external MySQL database.

Prerequisites

MySQL server installation.

Configuration Settings

Hopefully you have installed mysql server on your machine. To enable mysql properties on Presto server, you must create a file “mysql.properties” in “etc/catalog” directory. Issue the following command to create a mysql.properties file.

$ cd etc 
$ cd catalog 
$ vi mysql.properties   

connector.name = mysql 
connection-url = jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306 
connection-user = root 
connection-password = pwd 

Save the file and quit the terminal. In the above file, you must enter your mysql password in connection-password field.

Create Database in MySQL Server

Open MySQL server and create a database using the following command.

create database tutorials

Now you have created “tutorials” database in the server. To enable database type, use the command “use tutorials” in the query window.

Create Table

Let’s create a simple table on “tutorials” database.

create table author(auth_id int not null, auth_name varchar(50),topic varchar(100))

Insert Table

After creating a table, insert three records using the following query.

insert into author values(1,''Doug Cutting'',''Hadoop'') 
insert into author values(2,’James Gosling'',''java'') 
insert into author values(3,''Dennis Ritchie’,''C'')

Select Records

To retrieve all the records, type the following query.

Query

select * from author

Result

auth_id    auth_name      topic  
1        Doug Cutting     Hadoop 
2        James Gosling    java 
3        Dennis Ritchie     C 

As of now, you have queried data using MySQL server. Let’s connect Mysql storage plugin to Presto server.

Connect Presto CLI

Type the following command to connect MySql plugin on Presto CLI.

./presto --server localhost:8080 --catalog mysql --schema tutorials 

You will receive the following response.

presto:tutorials> 

Here “tutorials” refers to schema in mysql server.

List Schemas

To list out all the schemas in mysql, type the following query in Presto server.

Query

presto:tutorials> show schemas from mysql;

Result

      Schema 
-------------------- 
 information_schema 
 performance_schema 
 sys 
 tutorials

From this result, we can conclude the first three schemas as predefined and the last one as created by yourself.

List Tables from Schema

Following query lists out all the tables in tutorials schema.

Query

presto:tutorials> show tables from mysql.tutorials; 

Result

  Table 
-------- 
 author

We have created only one table in this schema. If you have created multiple tables, it will list out all the tables.

Describe Table

To describe the table fields, type the following query.

Query

presto:tutorials> describe mysql.tutorials.author;

Result

  Column   |     Type     | Comment 
-----------+--------------+--------- 
 auth_id   | integer      | 
 auth_name | varchar(50)  | 
 topic     | varchar(100) |

Show Columns from Table

Result

 Column    |     Type     | Comment 
-----------+--------------+--------- 
 auth_id   | integer      | 
 auth_name | varchar(50)  | 
 topic     | varchar(100) |

Access Table Records

To fetch all the records from mysql table, issue the following query.

Query

presto:tutorials> select * from mysql.tutorials.author; 

Result

auth_id  |   auth_name    | topic 
---------+----------------+-------- 
       1 | Doug Cutting   | Hadoop 
       2 | James Gosling  | java 
       3 | Dennis Ritchie | C

From this result, you can retrieve mysql server records in Presto.

Create Table Using as Command

Mysql connector doesn’t support create table query but you can create a table using as command.

Query

presto:tutorials> create table mysql.tutorials.sample as 
select * from mysql.tutorials.author; 

Result

CREATE TABLE: 3 rows

You can’t insert rows directly because this connector has some limitations. It cannot support the following queries −

• create
• insert
• update
• delete
• drop

To view the records in the newly created table, type the following query.

Query

presto:tutorials> select * from mysql.tutorials.sample; 

Result

auth_id  |   auth_name    | topic 
---------+----------------+-------- 
       1 | Doug Cutting   | Hadoop

Then, make it executable using the following command,

$ chmod 755 kafka-tpch

Run tpch-kafka

Run the kafka-tpch program to preload a number of topics with tpch data using the following command.

Query

$ ./kafka-tpch load --brokers localhost:9092 --prefix tpch. --tpch-type tiny 

Result

2016-07-13T16:15:52.083+0530 INFO main io.airlift.log.Logging Logging

……………………….

Now, Kafka tables customers,orders,supplier, etc., are loaded using tpch.

Add Config Settings

Let’s add the following Kafka connector configuration settings on Presto server.

connector.name = kafka  

kafka.nodes = localhost:9092  

kafka.table-names = tpch.customer,tpch.orders,tpch.lineitem,tpch.part,tpch.partsupp, 
tpch.supplier,tpch.nation,tpch.region  

kafka.hide-internal-columns = false 

In the above configuration, Kafka tables are loaded using Kafka-tpch program.

Start Presto CLI

Start Presto CLI using the following command,

$ ./presto --server localhost:8080 --catalog kafka —schema tpch;

Here “tpch” is a schema for Kafka connector and you will receive a response as the following.

presto:tpch>

List Tables

Following query lists out all the tables in “tpch” schema.

Query

presto:tpch> show tables;

Result

  Table 
---------- 
 customer 
 lineitem 
 nation 
 orders
 part 
 partsupp 
 region 
 supplier 

Describe Customer Table

Following query describes “customer” table.

Query

presto:tpch> describe customer; 

Result

  Column           |  Type   |                   Comment

 _message_corrupt  | boolean | Message data is corrupt 
 _message_length   | bigint  | Total number of message bytes 

Apache Presto – JDBC Interface

Presto’s JDBC interface is used to access Java application.

Prerequisites

Install presto-jdbc-0.150.jar

You can download the JDBC jar file by visiting the following link,

https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/facebook/presto/presto-jdbc/0.150/

After the jar file has been downloaded, add it to the class path of your Java application.

Create a Simple Application

Let’s create a simple java application using JDBC interface.

Coding − PrestoJdbcSample.java

import java.sql.*; 
import com.facebook.presto.jdbc.PrestoDriver; 

//import presto jdbc driver packages here.  
public class PrestoJdbcSample {  
   public static void main(String[] args) {  
      Connection connection = null; 
      Statement statement = null;  
      try { 
         
         Class.forName("com.facebook.presto.jdbc.PrestoDriver");  
         connection = DriverManager.getConnection(
         "jdbc:presto://localhost:8080/mysql/tutorials", "tutorials", “"); 
         
         //connect mysql server tutorials database here 
         statement = connection.createStatement(); 
         String sql;  
         sql = "select auth_id, auth_name from mysql.tutorials.author”; 
        
         //select mysql table author table two columns  
         ResultSet resultSet = statement.executeQuery(sql);  
         while(resultSet.next()){  
            int id  = resultSet.getInt("auth_id"); 
            String name = resultSet.getString(“auth_name");  
            System.out.print("ID: " + id + ";nName: " + name + "n"); 
         }  
         
         resultSet.close(); 
         statement.close(); 
         connection.close(); 
         
      }catch(SQLException sqlException){ 
         sqlException.printStackTrace(); 
      }catch(Exception exception){ 
         exception.printStackTrace(); 
      } 
   } 
}

Save the file and quit the application. Now, start Presto server in one terminal and open a new terminal to compile and execute the result. Following are the steps −

Compilation

~/Workspace/presto/presto-jdbc $ javac -cp presto-jdbc-0.149.jar  PrestoJdbcSample.java

Execution

~/Workspace/presto/presto-jdbc $ java -cp .:presto-jdbc-0.149.jar  PrestoJdbcSample

Apache Presto – Custom Function Application

Create a Maven project to develop Presto custom function.

SimpleFunctionsFactory.java

Create SimpleFunctionsFactory class to implement FunctionFactory interface.

package com.tutorialspoint.simple.functions;  

import com.facebook.presto.metadata.FunctionFactory; 
import com.facebook.presto.metadata.FunctionListBuilder; 
import com.facebook.presto.metadata.SqlFunction; 
import com.facebook.presto.spi.type.TypeManager;  
import java.util.List;  

public class SimpleFunctionFactory implements FunctionFactory { 
   
   private final TypeManager typeManager;  
   public SimpleFunctionFactory(TypeManager typeManager) { 
      this.typeManager = typeManager; 
   }  
    @Override 
    
   public List<SqlFunction> listFunctions() { 
      return new FunctionListBuilder(typeManager) 
      .scalar(SimpleFunctions.class) 
      .getFunctions(); 
   } 
}

SimpleFunctionsPlugin.java

Create a SimpleFunctionsPlugin class to implement Plugin interface.

package com.tutorialspoint.simple.functions;  

import com.facebook.presto.metadata.FunctionFactory; 
import com.facebook.presto.spi.Plugin; 
import com.facebook.presto.spi.type.TypeManager; 
import com.google.common.collect.ImmutableList;  
import javax.inject.Inject; 
import java.util.List; 
import static java.util.Objects.requireNonNull;  

public class SimpleFunctionsPlugin implements Plugin {  
   private TypeManager typeManager; 
   @Inject 
   
   public void setTypeManager(TypeManager typeManager) { 
      this.typeManager = requireNonNull(typeManager, "typeManager is null”); 
      //Inject TypeManager class here 
   }  
   @Override 
   
   public <T> List<T> getServices(Class<T> type){ 
      if (type == FunctionFactory.class) { 
         return ImmutableList.of(type.cast(new SimpleFunctionFactory(typeManager))); 
      } 
      return ImmutableList.of(); 
   } 
}

Add Resource File

Create a resource file which is specified in the implementation package.

(com.tutorialspoint.simple.functions.SimpleFunctionsPlugin)

Now move to the resource file location @ /path/to/resource/

Then add the changes,

com.facebook.presto.spi.Plugin 

pom.xml

Add the following dependencies to pom.xml file.

SimpleFunctions.java

Create SimpleFunctions class using Presto attributes.

package com.tutorialspoint.simple.functions;  

import com.facebook.presto.operator.Description; 
import com.facebook.presto.operator.scalar.ScalarFunction; 
import com.facebook.presto.operator.scalar.StringFunctions; 
import com.facebook.presto.spi.type.StandardTypes; 
import com.facebook.presto.type.LiteralParameters; 
import com.facebook.presto.type.SqlType;  

public final class SimpleFunctions { 
   private SimpleFunctions() { 
   }  
    
   @Description("Returns summation of two numbers") 
   @ScalarFunction(“mysum") 
   //function name 
   @SqlType(StandardTypes.BIGINT) 
    
   public static long sum(@SqlType(StandardTypes.BIGINT) long num1, 
   @SqlType(StandardTypes.BIGINT) long num2) { 
      return num1 + num2; 
   } 
}

After the application is created compile and execute the application. It will produce the JAR file. Copy the file and move the JAR file into the target Presto server plugin directory.

Compilation

mvn compile

Execution

mvn package

Now restart Presto server and connect Presto client. Then execute the custom function application as explained below,

$ ./presto --catalog mysql --schema default

Query

presto:default> select mysum(10,10);

Result
