Multi-column update based on joined table
by Lee Hachadoorian 11 Aug '24

11 Aug '24

I need to update multiple columns (~250) from one table to another based on a two-column key. In Postgres I would write this using the FROM clause, but since MonetDB doesn't support the FROM clause, I've successfully updated one column with: UPDATE census.acs2010_5yr SET b07401001 = ( SELECT CAST(b07401001 AS int) FROM acs2010_5yr.tmp_seq0001 WHERE acs2010_5yr.stusab = tmp_seq0001.stusab AND acs2010_5yr.logrecno = tmp_seq0001.logrecno ); My question is whether there is any benefit to writing a multiple column update into a single UPDATE statement: UPDATE target_table SET column1 = (SELECT column1 FROM source_table WHERE target_table.key = source_table.key), column2 = (SELECT column2 FROM source_table WHERE target_table.key = source_table.key), ..., columnN = (SELECT columnN FROM source_table WHERE target_table.key = source_table.key); On Postgres I believe the multi-column update using a table join would only have to do the sequential scan of each table once, but with the necessity of sub-selects in MonetDB, what is the backend doing? Is it already doing an index scan once for each row in the single column case, then doing it once for each row * column in the multi-column case?

[MonetDB-users] XQuery API and XLink/XUpdate support
by Alexandra Mart�nez 27 Jun '24

27 Jun '24

Hello all, I was wondering if there is any documentation about the API for XQuery (i.e., how to write xqueries from a Java program). Also, I am interested in using some features of XLink and XUpdate on top of my XML database. Is support for any of these in progress? Thanks in advance, Alexandra ______________________________________________________ Click here to donate to the Hurricane Katrina relief effort. http://store.yahoo.com/redcross-donate3/

Problem to install new fresh database
by Ariel Abadi 30 Dec '23

30 Dec '23

Hi! Im trying to install the latest version of Monetdb, and seems the repo has an error. Can anyone help!? or had an idea how to solve this? [root@tc-mn monetdb]# yum update Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Determining fastest mirrors epel/x86_64/metalink | 32 kB 00:00:00 * epel: mirror.de.leaseweb.net base | 3.6 kB 00:00:00 epel | 4.7 kB 00:00:00 extras | 2.9 kB 00:00:00 monetdb | 1.5 kB 00:00:00 updates | 2.9 kB 00:00:00 (1/5): epel/x86_64/group_gz | 100 kB 00:00:00 (2/5): epel/x86_64/updateinfo | 1.0 MB 00:00:00 (3/5): monetdb/7/x86_64/primary | 120 kB 00:00:00 (4/5): updates/7/x86_64/primary_db | 24 MB 00:00:00 (5/5): epel/x86_64/primary_db | 7.0 MB 00:00:01 One of the configured repositories failed (Unknown), and yum doesn't have enough cached data to continue. At this point the only safe thing yum can do is fail. There are a few ways to work "fix" this: 1. Contact the upstream for the repository and get them to fix the problem. 2. Reconfigure the baseurl/etc. for the repository, to point to a working upstream. This is most often useful if you are using a newer distribution release than is supported by the repository (and the packages for the previous distribution release still work). 3. Run the command with the repository temporarily disabled yum --disablerepo=<repoid> ... 4. Disable the repository permanently, so yum won't use it by default. Yum will then just ignore the repository until you permanently enable it again or use --enablerepo for temporary usage: yum-config-manager --disable <repoid> or subscription-manager repos --disable=<repoid> 5. Configure the failing repository to be skipped, if it is unavailable. Note that yum will try to contact the repo. when it runs most commands, so will have to try and fail each time (and thus. yum will be be much slower). If it is a very temporary problem though, this is often a nice compromise: yum-config-manager --save --setopt=<repoid>.skip_if_unavailable=true Parsing primary.xml error: Start tag expected, '<' not found [root@tc-mn monetdb]#

Announcement: New Dec2023 Feature release of MonetDB suite
by Sjoerd Mullender 28 Dec '23

28 Dec '23

The MonetDB team at MonetDB Solutions BV is pleased to announce the Dec2023 feature release of the MonetDB suite of programs. More information about MonetDB can be found on our website at <https://www.monetdb.org/>. For details on this release, please see the release notes at <https://www.monetdb.org/release-notes/dec2023/>. As usual, the download location is <https://www.monetdb.org/downloads/>. The Dec2023 documentation can be found [here](https://www.monetdb.org/documentation-Dec2023/). ## Dec2023 Feature Release (11.49.1) ### - All binary packages are now signed with a new key with key fingerprint DBCE 5625 94D7 1959 7B54 CE85 3F1A D47F 5521 A603. - The ranges of merge partitions are now pushed down into the low level GDK operations, giving them a handle to sometimes execute more efficiently. - Removed the PYTHON MAP external language option, as after a fork the synchronization primitives could be in any state, leading to deadlocks. During the upgrade function definitions will fallback to the normal PYTHON language option. - Implemented direct masking for strimp construction. The strimps datastructure now keeps an array of 65K 64-bit integers that is zero everywhere except at the indexes that correspond to header pairs. The entry for the nth pair in order has the nth bit of the bitstring on. These can be used to quickly construct bitstrings. ### ODBC Driver - Corrected the output value of column CHAR_OCTET_LENGTH of ODBC functions SQLColumns() and SQLProcedureColumns(). ### MonetDB Common - Fixed a (rare) race condition between copying a bat (COLcopy) and updates happening in parallel to that same bat. This may only be an actual problem with string bats, and then only in very particular circumstances. - Introduced options wal_max_dropped, wal_max_file_age and wal_max_file_size that control the write-ahead log file rotation. - Removed function BATroles to set column names on BATs. - Removed the compiled-in limit on the number of threads that can be used. The number of threads are still limited, but the limit is dictated solely by the operating system and the availability of enough memory. - We now prevent accidental upgrades from a database without 128 bit integers to one with 128 bit integers (also known as HUGEINT) from happening. Upgrades will only be done if the server is started with the option --set allow_hge_upgrade=yes. ### Geom Module - Because recent changes to the geom module require the use of geos 3.10, the geom module is no longer available in older versions of Debian and Ubuntu. Specifically, Debian 10 and 11 (buster and bullseye) and Ubuntu 20.04 (Focal Fossa) are affected. There is no automatic upgrade available for databases that were geom enabled to databases that are not, so dump + restore is the only option (if no geom types are actually used). - Implements Rtree index in GDK layer based on librtree. The index is used in the implementation of the filter functions ST_Intersects and ST_Dwithin for geometric points. - Improves shapefile support by replacing functions SHPattach, SHPpartialimport, ahd SHPimport with SHPload. - Introduces functions ST_DistanceGeographic, ST_DwithinGeographic, ST_IntersectsGeographic, ST_CoversGeographic, ST_Collects with geodesic semantics. ST_Transform can be used to convert geodetic into geographic data using libPROJ. ### MonetDB5 Server - Removed MAL functions bat.reuse and bat.reuseMap. - The MAL functions io.import and io.export have been removed. - Removed MAL functions bat.getRole and bat.setColumn since the underlying function BATroles was removed. - Change how json is stored in the database: We now normalize json strings after parsing, removing whitespace and eliminating duplicate keys in objects. - The function json.filter now properly returns json scalars instead of wrapping them in an array. - Removed the MAL tokenizer module. It was never usable from SQL and in this form never would be. ### SQL Frontend - Introduction of table returning function `persist_unlogged(schema string, table string)` that attempts to persist data in disk if "schema"."table" is unlogged table in insert only mode. If persist attempt is successful, the count of the persisted rows is returned, otherwise the count is 0. - Added ISO/IEC 9075-11 SQL/Schemata (SQL:2011) with SQL system views: information_schema.schemata information_schema.tables information_schema.views information_schema.columns information_schema.character_sets information_schema.check_constraints information_schema.table_constraints information_schema.referential_constraints information_schema.routines information_schema.parameters information_schema.sequences For details see https://www.monetdb.org/documentation/user-guide/sql-catalog/information_sc… Most views have been extended (after the standard columns) with MonetDB specific information columns such as schema_id, table_id, column_id, etc. This simplifies filtering and joins with system tables/views in sys schema when needed. Note: MonetDB does NOT support catalog qualifiers in object names, so all the CATALOG columns in these information_schema views will always return NULL. - Added support for generated column syntax: GENERATED BY DEFAULT AS IDENTITY ... This allows the user to override the default generated sequence value during inserts. - Added SQL support for: <result offset clause> and <fetch first clause> in <query expression> ::= [ <with clause> ] <query expression body> [ <order by clause> ] [ <result offset clause> ] [ <fetch first clause> ] [ <sample clause> ] <result offset clause> ::= OFFSET <offset row count> [ {ROW|ROWS} ] <fetch first clause> ::= FETCH {FIRST|NEXT} <fetch first row count> {ROW|ROWS} ONLY ### Bug Fixes - [6933](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/6933): Add support for scalar function IFNULL(expr1, expr2) - [7044](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/7044): Improve error message regarding 3-level SQL names - [7261](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/7261): Misleading error message - [7274](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/7274): Aggregate function ST_Collect crashes mserver5 - [7376](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/7376): Concurrency Issue: Second Python UDF Awaits Completion of First UDF - [7391](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/7391): SQL 2023 : greatest/least functions with unlimited arguments (not only 2) - [7403](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/7403): Join not recognized between two row_number() columns - [7413](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/7413): MonetDB server crashes in `BATcalcbetween_intern`
