lib/storage: switch from global to per-day index for `MetricName -> TSID` mapping Previously all the newly ingested time series were registered in global `MetricName -> TSID` index. This index was used during data ingestion for locating the TSID (internal series id) for the given canonical metric name (the canonical metric name consists of metric name plus all its labels sorted by label names). The `MetricName -> TSID` index is stored on disk in order to make sure that the data isn't lost on VictoriaMetrics restart or unclean shutdown. The lookup in this index is relatively slow, since VictoriaMetrics needs to read the corresponding data block from disk, unpack it, put the unpacked block into `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache, and then search for the given `MetricName -> TSID` entry there. So VictoriaMetrics uses in-memory cache for speeding up the lookup for active time series. This cache is named `storage/tsid`. If this cache capacity is enough for all the currently ingested active time series, then VictoriaMetrics works fast, since it doesn't need to read the data from disk. VictoriaMetrics starts reading data from `MetricName -> TSID` on-disk index in the following cases: - If `storage/tsid` cache capacity isn't enough for active time series. Then just increase available memory for VictoriaMetrics or reduce the number of active time series ingested into VictoriaMetrics. - If new time series is ingested into VictoriaMetrics. In this case it cannot find the needed entry in the `storage/tsid` cache, so it needs to consult on-disk `MetricName -> TSID` index, since it doesn't know that the index has no the corresponding entry too. This is a typical event under high churn rate, when old time series are constantly substituted with new time series. Reading the data from `MetricName -> TSID` index is slow, so inserts, which lead to reading this index, are counted as slow inserts, and they can be monitored via `vm_slow_row_inserts_total` metric exposed by VictoriaMetrics. Prior to this commit the `MetricName -> TSID` index was global, e.g. it contained entries sorted by `MetricName` for all the time series ever ingested into VictoriaMetrics during the configured -retentionPeriod. This index can become very large under high churn rate and long retention. VictoriaMetrics caches data from this index in `indexdb/dataBlocks` in-memory cache for speeding up index lookups. The `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache may occupy significant share of available memory for storing recently accessed blocks at `MetricName -> TSID` index when searching for newly ingested time series. This commit switches from global `MetricName -> TSID` index to per-day index. This allows significantly reducing the amounts of data, which needs to be cached in `indexdb/dataBlocks`, since now VictoriaMetrics consults only the index for the current day when new time series is ingested into it. The downside of this change is increased indexdb size on disk for workloads without high churn rate, e.g. with static time series, which do no change over time, since now VictoriaMetrics needs to store identical `MetricName -> TSID` entries for static time series for every day. This change removes an optimization for reducing CPU and disk IO spikes at indexdb rotation, since it didn't work correctly - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401 . At the same time the change fixes the issue, which could result in lost access to time series, which stop receving new samples during the first hour after indexdb rotation - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2698 The issue with the increased CPU and disk IO usage during indexdb rotation will be addressed in a separate commit according to https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401#issuecomment-1553488685 This is a follow-up for 1f28b46ae9350795af41cbfc3ca0e8a5af084fce

lib/index: reduce read/write load after indexDB rotation (#2177) * lib/index: reduce read/write load after indexDB rotation IndexDB in VM is responsible for storing TSID - ID's used for identifying time series. The index is stored on disk and used by both ingestion and read path. IndexDB is stored separately to data parts and is global for all stored data. It can't be deleted partially as VM deletes data parts. Instead, indexDB is rotated once in `retention` interval. The rotation procedure means that `current` indexDB becomes `previous`, and new freshly created indexDB struct becomes `current`. So in any time, VM holds indexDB for current and previous retention periods. When time series is ingested or queried, VM checks if its TSID is present in `current` indexDB. If it is missing, it checks the `previous` indexDB. If TSID was found, it gets copied to the `current` indexDB. In this way `current` indexDB stores only series which were active during the retention period. To improve indexDB lookups, VM uses a cache layer called `tsidCache`. Both write and read path consult `tsidCache` and on miss the relad lookup happens. When rotation happens, VM resets the `tsidCache`. This is needed for ingestion path to trigger `current` indexDB re-population. Since index re-population requires additional resources, every index rotation event may cause some extra load on CPU and disk. While it may be unnoticeable for most of the cases, for systems with very high number of unique series each rotation may lead to performance degradation for some period of time. This PR makes an attempt to smooth out resource usage after the rotation. The changes are following: 1. `tsidCache` is no longer reset after the rotation; 2. Instead, each entry in `tsidCache` gains a notion of indexDB to which they belong; 3. On ingestion path after the rotation we check if requested TSID was found in `tsidCache`. Then we have 3 branches: 3.1 Fast path. It was found, and belongs to the `current` indexDB. Return TSID. 3.2 Slow path. It wasn't found, so we generate it from scratch, add to `current` indexDB, add it to `tsidCache`. 3.3 Smooth path. It was found but does not belong to the `current` indexDB. In this case, we add it to the `current` indexDB with some probability. The probability is based on time passed since the last rotation with some threshold. The more time has passed since rotation the higher is chance to re-populate `current` indexDB. The default re-population interval in this PR is set to `1h`, during which entries from `previous` index supposed to slowly re-populate `current` index. The new metric `vm_timeseries_repopulated_total` was added to identify how many TSIDs were moved from `previous` indexDB to the `current` indexDB. This metric supposed to grow only during the first `1h` after the last rotation. https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401 Signed-off-by: hagen1778 <roman@victoriametrics.com> * wip * wip Co-authored-by: Aliaksandr Valialkin <valyala@victoriametrics.com>

all: add Windows build for VictoriaMetrics This commit changes background merge algorithm, so it becomes compatible with Windows file semantics. The previous algorithm for background merge: 1. Merge source parts into a destination part inside tmp directory. 2. Create a file in txn directory with instructions on how to atomically swap source parts with the destination part. 3. Perform instructions from the file. 4. Delete the file with instructions. This algorithm guarantees that either source parts or destination part is visible in the partition after unclean shutdown at any step above, since the remaining files with instructions is replayed on the next restart, after that the remaining contents of the tmp directory is deleted. Unfortunately this algorithm doesn't work under Windows because it disallows removing and moving files, which are in use. So the new algorithm for background merge has been implemented: 1. Merge source parts into a destination part inside the partition directory itself. E.g. now the partition directory may contain both complete and incomplete parts. 2. Atomically update the parts.json file with the new list of parts after the merge, e.g. remove the source parts from the list and add the destination part to the list before storing it to parts.json file. 3. Remove the source parts from disk when they are no longer used. This algorithm guarantees that either source parts or destination part is visible in the partition after unclean shutdown at any step above, since incomplete partitions from step 1 or old source parts from step 3 are removed on the next startup by inspecting parts.json file. This algorithm should work under Windows, since it doesn't remove or move files in use. This algorithm has also the following benefits: - It should work better for NFS. - It fits object storage semantics. The new algorithm changes data storage format, so it is impossible to downgrade to the previous versions of VictoriaMetrics after upgrading to this algorithm.

lib/storage: switch from global to per-day index for `MetricName -> TSID` mapping Previously all the newly ingested time series were registered in global `MetricName -> TSID` index. This index was used during data ingestion for locating the TSID (internal series id) for the given canonical metric name (the canonical metric name consists of metric name plus all its labels sorted by label names). The `MetricName -> TSID` index is stored on disk in order to make sure that the data isn't lost on VictoriaMetrics restart or unclean shutdown. The lookup in this index is relatively slow, since VictoriaMetrics needs to read the corresponding data block from disk, unpack it, put the unpacked block into `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache, and then search for the given `MetricName -> TSID` entry there. So VictoriaMetrics uses in-memory cache for speeding up the lookup for active time series. This cache is named `storage/tsid`. If this cache capacity is enough for all the currently ingested active time series, then VictoriaMetrics works fast, since it doesn't need to read the data from disk. VictoriaMetrics starts reading data from `MetricName -> TSID` on-disk index in the following cases: - If `storage/tsid` cache capacity isn't enough for active time series. Then just increase available memory for VictoriaMetrics or reduce the number of active time series ingested into VictoriaMetrics. - If new time series is ingested into VictoriaMetrics. In this case it cannot find the needed entry in the `storage/tsid` cache, so it needs to consult on-disk `MetricName -> TSID` index, since it doesn't know that the index has no the corresponding entry too. This is a typical event under high churn rate, when old time series are constantly substituted with new time series. Reading the data from `MetricName -> TSID` index is slow, so inserts, which lead to reading this index, are counted as slow inserts, and they can be monitored via `vm_slow_row_inserts_total` metric exposed by VictoriaMetrics. Prior to this commit the `MetricName -> TSID` index was global, e.g. it contained entries sorted by `MetricName` for all the time series ever ingested into VictoriaMetrics during the configured -retentionPeriod. This index can become very large under high churn rate and long retention. VictoriaMetrics caches data from this index in `indexdb/dataBlocks` in-memory cache for speeding up index lookups. The `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache may occupy significant share of available memory for storing recently accessed blocks at `MetricName -> TSID` index when searching for newly ingested time series. This commit switches from global `MetricName -> TSID` index to per-day index. This allows significantly reducing the amounts of data, which needs to be cached in `indexdb/dataBlocks`, since now VictoriaMetrics consults only the index for the current day when new time series is ingested into it. The downside of this change is increased indexdb size on disk for workloads without high churn rate, e.g. with static time series, which do no change over time, since now VictoriaMetrics needs to store identical `MetricName -> TSID` entries for static time series for every day. This change removes an optimization for reducing CPU and disk IO spikes at indexdb rotation, since it didn't work correctly - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401 . At the same time the change fixes the issue, which could result in lost access to time series, which stop receving new samples during the first hour after indexdb rotation - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2698 The issue with the increased CPU and disk IO usage during indexdb rotation will be addressed in a separate commit according to https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401#issuecomment-1553488685 This is a follow-up for 1f28b46ae9350795af41cbfc3ca0e8a5af084fce

The `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache may occupy significant share of available memory for storing recently accessed blocks at `MetricName -> TSID` index when searching for newly ingested time series. This commit switches from global `MetricName -> TSID` index to per-day index. This allows significantly reducing the amounts of data, which needs to be cached in `indexdb/dataBlocks`, since now VictoriaMetrics consults only the index for the current day when new time series is ingested into it. The downside of this change is increased indexdb size on disk for workloads without high churn rate, e.g. with static time series, which do no change over time, since now VictoriaMetrics needs to store identical `MetricName -> TSID` entries for static time series for every day. This change removes an optimization for reducing CPU and disk IO spikes at indexdb rotation, since it didn't work correctly - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401 . At the same time the change fixes the issue, which could result in lost access to time series, which stop receving new samples during the first hour after indexdb rotation - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2698 The issue with the increased CPU and disk IO usage during indexdb rotation will be addressed in a separate commit according to https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401#issuecomment-1553488685 This is a follow-up for 1f28b46ae9350795af41cbfc3ca0e8a5af084fce

lib/storage: switch from global to per-day index for `MetricName -> TSID` mapping Previously all the newly ingested time series were registered in global `MetricName -> TSID` index. This index was used during data ingestion for locating the TSID (internal series id) for the given canonical metric name (the canonical metric name consists of metric name plus all its labels sorted by label names). The `MetricName -> TSID` index is stored on disk in order to make sure that the data isn't lost on VictoriaMetrics restart or unclean shutdown. The lookup in this index is relatively slow, since VictoriaMetrics needs to read the corresponding data block from disk, unpack it, put the unpacked block into `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache, and then search for the given `MetricName -> TSID` entry there. So VictoriaMetrics uses in-memory cache for speeding up the lookup for active time series. This cache is named `storage/tsid`. If this cache capacity is enough for all the currently ingested active time series, then VictoriaMetrics works fast, since it doesn't need to read the data from disk. VictoriaMetrics starts reading data from `MetricName -> TSID` on-disk index in the following cases: - If `storage/tsid` cache capacity isn't enough for active time series. Then just increase available memory for VictoriaMetrics or reduce the number of active time series ingested into VictoriaMetrics. - If new time series is ingested into VictoriaMetrics. In this case it cannot find the needed entry in the `storage/tsid` cache, so it needs to consult on-disk `MetricName -> TSID` index, since it doesn't know that the index has no the corresponding entry too. This is a typical event under high churn rate, when old time series are constantly substituted with new time series. Reading the data from `MetricName -> TSID` index is slow, so inserts, which lead to reading this index, are counted as slow inserts, and they can be monitored via `vm_slow_row_inserts_total` metric exposed by VictoriaMetrics. Prior to this commit the `MetricName -> TSID` index was global, e.g. it contained entries sorted by `MetricName` for all the time series ever ingested into VictoriaMetrics during the configured -retentionPeriod. This index can become very large under high churn rate and long retention. VictoriaMetrics caches data from this index in `indexdb/dataBlocks` in-memory cache for speeding up index lookups.

lib/storage: switch from global to per-day index for `MetricName -> TSID` mapping Previously all the newly ingested time series were registered in global `MetricName -> TSID` index. This index was used during data ingestion for locating the TSID (internal series id) for the given canonical metric name (the canonical metric name consists of metric name plus all its labels sorted by label names). The `MetricName -> TSID` index is stored on disk in order to make sure that the data isn't lost on VictoriaMetrics restart or unclean shutdown. The lookup in this index is relatively slow, since VictoriaMetrics needs to read the corresponding data block from disk, unpack it, put the unpacked block into `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache, and then search for the given `MetricName -> TSID` entry there. So VictoriaMetrics uses in-memory cache for speeding up the lookup for active time series. This cache is named `storage/tsid`. If this cache capacity is enough for all the currently ingested active time series, then VictoriaMetrics works fast, since it doesn't need to read the data from disk. VictoriaMetrics starts reading data from `MetricName -> TSID` on-disk index in the following cases: - If `storage/tsid` cache capacity isn't enough for active time series. Then just increase available memory for VictoriaMetrics or reduce the number of active time series ingested into VictoriaMetrics. - If new time series is ingested into VictoriaMetrics. In this case it cannot find the needed entry in the `storage/tsid` cache, so it needs to consult on-disk `MetricName -> TSID` index, since it doesn't know that the index has no the corresponding entry too. This is a typical event under high churn rate, when old time series are constantly substituted with new time series. Reading the data from `MetricName -> TSID` index is slow, so inserts, which lead to reading this index, are counted as slow inserts, and they can be monitored via `vm_slow_row_inserts_total` metric exposed by VictoriaMetrics. Prior to this commit the `MetricName -> TSID` index was global, e.g. it contained entries sorted by `MetricName` for all the time series ever ingested into VictoriaMetrics during the configured -retentionPeriod. This index can become very large under high churn rate and long retention. VictoriaMetrics caches data from this index in `indexdb/dataBlocks` in-memory cache for speeding up index lookups. The `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache may occupy significant share of available memory for storing recently accessed blocks at `MetricName -> TSID` index when searching for newly ingested time series. This commit switches from global `MetricName -> TSID` index to per-day index. This allows significantly reducing the amounts of data, which needs to be cached in `indexdb/dataBlocks`, since now VictoriaMetrics consults only the index for the current day when new time series is ingested into it. The downside of this change is increased indexdb size on disk for workloads without high churn rate, e.g. with static time series, which do no change over time, since now VictoriaMetrics needs to store identical `MetricName -> TSID` entries for static time series for every day. This change removes an optimization for reducing CPU and disk IO spikes at indexdb rotation, since it didn't work correctly - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401 . At the same time the change fixes the issue, which could result in lost access to time series, which stop receving new samples during the first hour after indexdb rotation - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2698 The issue with the increased CPU and disk IO usage during indexdb rotation will be addressed in a separate commit according to https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401#issuecomment-1553488685 This is a follow-up for 1f28b46ae9350795af41cbfc3ca0e8a5af084fce

lib/index: reduce read/write load after indexDB rotation (#2177) * lib/index: reduce read/write load after indexDB rotation IndexDB in VM is responsible for storing TSID - ID's used for identifying time series. The index is stored on disk and used by both ingestion and read path. IndexDB is stored separately to data parts and is global for all stored data. It can't be deleted partially as VM deletes data parts. Instead, indexDB is rotated once in `retention` interval. The rotation procedure means that `current` indexDB becomes `previous`, and new freshly created indexDB struct becomes `current`. So in any time, VM holds indexDB for current and previous retention periods. When time series is ingested or queried, VM checks if its TSID is present in `current` indexDB. If it is missing, it checks the `previous` indexDB. If TSID was found, it gets copied to the `current` indexDB. In this way `current` indexDB stores only series which were active during the retention period. To improve indexDB lookups, VM uses a cache layer called `tsidCache`. Both write and read path consult `tsidCache` and on miss the relad lookup happens. When rotation happens, VM resets the `tsidCache`. This is needed for ingestion path to trigger `current` indexDB re-population. Since index re-population requires additional resources, every index rotation event may cause some extra load on CPU and disk. While it may be unnoticeable for most of the cases, for systems with very high number of unique series each rotation may lead to performance degradation for some period of time. This PR makes an attempt to smooth out resource usage after the rotation. The changes are following: 1. `tsidCache` is no longer reset after the rotation; 2. Instead, each entry in `tsidCache` gains a notion of indexDB to which they belong; 3. On ingestion path after the rotation we check if requested TSID was found in `tsidCache`. Then we have 3 branches: 3.1 Fast path. It was found, and belongs to the `current` indexDB. Return TSID. 3.2 Slow path. It wasn't found, so we generate it from scratch, add to `current` indexDB, add it to `tsidCache`. 3.3 Smooth path. It was found but does not belong to the `current` indexDB. In this case, we add it to the `current` indexDB with some probability. The probability is based on time passed since the last rotation with some threshold. The more time has passed since rotation the higher is chance to re-populate `current` indexDB. The default re-population interval in this PR is set to `1h`, during which entries from `previous` index supposed to slowly re-populate `current` index. The new metric `vm_timeseries_repopulated_total` was added to identify how many TSIDs were moved from `previous` indexDB to the `current` indexDB. This metric supposed to grow only during the first `1h` after the last rotation. https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401 Signed-off-by: hagen1778 <roman@victoriametrics.com> * wip * wip Co-authored-by: Aliaksandr Valialkin <valyala@victoriametrics.com>

lib/storage: switch from global to per-day index for `MetricName -> TSID` mapping Previously all the newly ingested time series were registered in global `MetricName -> TSID` index. This index was used during data ingestion for locating the TSID (internal series id) for the given canonical metric name (the canonical metric name consists of metric name plus all its labels sorted by label names). The `MetricName -> TSID` index is stored on disk in order to make sure that the data isn't lost on VictoriaMetrics restart or unclean shutdown. The lookup in this index is relatively slow, since VictoriaMetrics needs to read the corresponding data block from disk, unpack it, put the unpacked block into `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache, and then search for the given `MetricName -> TSID` entry there. So VictoriaMetrics uses in-memory cache for speeding up the lookup for active time series. This cache is named `storage/tsid`. If this cache capacity is enough for all the currently ingested active time series, then VictoriaMetrics works fast, since it doesn't need to read the data from disk. VictoriaMetrics starts reading data from `MetricName -> TSID` on-disk index in the following cases: - If `storage/tsid` cache capacity isn't enough for active time series. Then just increase available memory for VictoriaMetrics or reduce the number of active time series ingested into VictoriaMetrics. - If new time series is ingested into VictoriaMetrics. In this case it cannot find the needed entry in the `storage/tsid` cache, so it needs to consult on-disk `MetricName -> TSID` index, since it doesn't know that the index has no the corresponding entry too. This is a typical event under high churn rate, when old time series are constantly substituted with new time series. Reading the data from `MetricName -> TSID` index is slow, so inserts, which lead to reading this index, are counted as slow inserts, and they can be monitored via `vm_slow_row_inserts_total` metric exposed by VictoriaMetrics. Prior to this commit the `MetricName -> TSID` index was global, e.g. it contained entries sorted by `MetricName` for all the time series ever ingested into VictoriaMetrics during the configured -retentionPeriod. This index can become very large under high churn rate and long retention. VictoriaMetrics caches data from this index in `indexdb/dataBlocks` in-memory cache for speeding up index lookups. The `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache may occupy significant share of available memory for storing recently accessed blocks at `MetricName -> TSID` index when searching for newly ingested time series. This commit switches from global `MetricName -> TSID` index to per-day index. This allows significantly reducing the amounts of data, which needs to be cached in `indexdb/dataBlocks`, since now VictoriaMetrics consults only the index for the current day when new time series is ingested into it. The downside of this change is increased indexdb size on disk for workloads without high churn rate, e.g. with static time series, which do no change over time, since now VictoriaMetrics needs to store identical `MetricName -> TSID` entries for static time series for every day. This change removes an optimization for reducing CPU and disk IO spikes at indexdb rotation, since it didn't work correctly - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401 . At the same time the change fixes the issue, which could result in lost access to time series, which stop receving new samples during the first hour after indexdb rotation - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2698 The issue with the increased CPU and disk IO usage during indexdb rotation will be addressed in a separate commit according to https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401#issuecomment-1553488685 This is a follow-up for 1f28b46ae9350795af41cbfc3ca0e8a5af084fce

lib/storage: switch from global to per-day index for `MetricName -> TSID` mapping Previously all the newly ingested time series were registered in global `MetricName -> TSID` index. This index was used during data ingestion for locating the TSID (internal series id) for the given canonical metric name (the canonical metric name consists of metric name plus all its labels sorted by label names). The `MetricName -> TSID` index is stored on disk in order to make sure that the data isn't lost on VictoriaMetrics restart or unclean shutdown. The lookup in this index is relatively slow, since VictoriaMetrics needs to read the corresponding data block from disk, unpack it, put the unpacked block into `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache, and then search for the given `MetricName -> TSID` entry there. So VictoriaMetrics uses in-memory cache for speeding up the lookup for active time series. This cache is named `storage/tsid`. If this cache capacity is enough for all the currently ingested active time series, then VictoriaMetrics works fast, since it doesn't need to read the data from disk. VictoriaMetrics starts reading data from `MetricName -> TSID` on-disk index in the following cases: - If `storage/tsid` cache capacity isn't enough for active time series. Then just increase available memory for VictoriaMetrics or reduce the number of active time series ingested into VictoriaMetrics. - If new time series is ingested into VictoriaMetrics. In this case it cannot find the needed entry in the `storage/tsid` cache, so it needs to consult on-disk `MetricName -> TSID` index, since it doesn't know that the index has no the corresponding entry too. This is a typical event under high churn rate, when old time series are constantly substituted with new time series. Reading the data from `MetricName -> TSID` index is slow, so inserts, which lead to reading this index, are counted as slow inserts, and they can be monitored via `vm_slow_row_inserts_total` metric exposed by VictoriaMetrics. Prior to this commit the `MetricName -> TSID` index was global, e.g. it contained entries sorted by `MetricName` for all the time series ever ingested into VictoriaMetrics during the configured -retentionPeriod. This index can become very large under high churn rate and long retention. VictoriaMetrics caches data from this index in `indexdb/dataBlocks` in-memory cache for speeding up index lookups. The `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache may occupy significant share of available memory for storing recently accessed blocks at `MetricName -> TSID` index when searching for newly ingested time series. This commit switches from global `MetricName -> TSID` index to per-day index. This allows significantly reducing the amounts of data, which needs to be cached in `indexdb/dataBlocks`, since now VictoriaMetrics consults only the index for the current day when new time series is ingested into it. The downside of this change is increased indexdb size on disk for workloads without high churn rate, e.g. with static time series, which do no change over time, since now VictoriaMetrics needs to store identical `MetricName -> TSID` entries for static time series for every day. This change removes an optimization for reducing CPU and disk IO spikes at indexdb rotation, since it didn't work correctly - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401 . At the same time the change fixes the issue, which could result in lost access to time series, which stop receving new samples during the first hour after indexdb rotation - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2698 The issue with the increased CPU and disk IO usage during indexdb rotation will be addressed in a separate commit according to https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401#issuecomment-1553488685 This is a follow-up for 1f28b46ae9350795af41cbfc3ca0e8a5af084fce

lib/index: reduce read/write load after indexDB rotation (#2177) * lib/index: reduce read/write load after indexDB rotation IndexDB in VM is responsible for storing TSID - ID's used for identifying time series. The index is stored on disk and used by both ingestion and read path. IndexDB is stored separately to data parts and is global for all stored data. It can't be deleted partially as VM deletes data parts. Instead, indexDB is rotated once in `retention` interval. The rotation procedure means that `current` indexDB becomes `previous`, and new freshly created indexDB struct becomes `current`. So in any time, VM holds indexDB for current and previous retention periods. When time series is ingested or queried, VM checks if its TSID is present in `current` indexDB. If it is missing, it checks the `previous` indexDB. If TSID was found, it gets copied to the `current` indexDB. In this way `current` indexDB stores only series which were active during the retention period. To improve indexDB lookups, VM uses a cache layer called `tsidCache`. Both write and read path consult `tsidCache` and on miss the relad lookup happens. When rotation happens, VM resets the `tsidCache`. This is needed for ingestion path to trigger `current` indexDB re-population. Since index re-population requires additional resources, every index rotation event may cause some extra load on CPU and disk. While it may be unnoticeable for most of the cases, for systems with very high number of unique series each rotation may lead to performance degradation for some period of time. This PR makes an attempt to smooth out resource usage after the rotation. The changes are following: 1. `tsidCache` is no longer reset after the rotation; 2.

lib/index: reduce read/write load after indexDB rotation (#2177) * lib/index: reduce read/write load after indexDB rotation IndexDB in VM is responsible for storing TSID - ID's used for identifying time series. The index is stored on disk and used by both ingestion and read path. IndexDB is stored separately to data parts and is global for all stored data. It can't be deleted partially as VM deletes data parts. Instead, indexDB is rotated once in `retention` interval. The rotation procedure means that `current` indexDB becomes `previous`, and new freshly created indexDB struct becomes `current`. So in any time, VM holds indexDB for current and previous retention periods. When time series is ingested or queried, VM checks if its TSID is present in `current` indexDB. If it is missing, it checks the `previous` indexDB. If TSID was found, it gets copied to the `current` indexDB. In this way `current` indexDB stores only series which were active during the retention period. To improve indexDB lookups, VM uses a cache layer called `tsidCache`. Both write and read path consult `tsidCache` and on miss the relad lookup happens. When rotation happens, VM resets the `tsidCache`. This is needed for ingestion path to trigger `current` indexDB re-population. Since index re-population requires additional resources, every index rotation event may cause some extra load on CPU and disk. While it may be unnoticeable for most of the cases, for systems with very high number of unique series each rotation may lead to performance degradation for some period of time. This PR makes an attempt to smooth out resource usage after the rotation. The changes are following: 1. `tsidCache` is no longer reset after the rotation; 2. Instead, each entry in `tsidCache` gains a notion of indexDB to which they belong; 3. On ingestion path after the rotation we check if requested TSID was found in `tsidCache`. Then we have 3 branches: 3.1 Fast path. It was found, and belongs to the `current` indexDB. Return TSID. 3.2 Slow path. It wasn't found, so we generate it from scratch, add to `current` indexDB, add it to `tsidCache`. 3.3 Smooth path. It was found but does not belong to the `current` indexDB.

lib/storage: switch from global to per-day index for `MetricName -> TSID` mapping Previously all the newly ingested time series were registered in global `MetricName -> TSID` index. This index was used during data ingestion for locating the TSID (internal series id) for the given canonical metric name (the canonical metric name consists of metric name plus all its labels sorted by label names). The `MetricName -> TSID` index is stored on disk in order to make sure that the data isn't lost on VictoriaMetrics restart or unclean shutdown. The lookup in this index is relatively slow, since VictoriaMetrics needs to read the corresponding data block from disk, unpack it, put the unpacked block into `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache, and then search for the given `MetricName -> TSID` entry there. So VictoriaMetrics uses in-memory cache for speeding up the lookup for active time series. This cache is named `storage/tsid`. If this cache capacity is enough for all the currently ingested active time series, then VictoriaMetrics works fast, since it doesn't need to read the data from disk. VictoriaMetrics starts reading data from `MetricName -> TSID` on-disk index in the following cases: - If `storage/tsid` cache capacity isn't enough for active time series. Then just increase available memory for VictoriaMetrics or reduce the number of active time series ingested into VictoriaMetrics. - If new time series is ingested into VictoriaMetrics. In this case it cannot find the needed entry in the `storage/tsid` cache, so it needs to consult on-disk `MetricName -> TSID` index, since it doesn't know that the index has no the corresponding entry too. This is a typical event under high churn rate, when old time series are constantly substituted with new time series. Reading the data from `MetricName -> TSID` index is slow, so inserts, which lead to reading this index, are counted as slow inserts, and they can be monitored via `vm_slow_row_inserts_total` metric exposed by VictoriaMetrics. Prior to this commit the `MetricName -> TSID` index was global, e.g. it contained entries sorted by `MetricName` for all the time series ever ingested into VictoriaMetrics during the configured -retentionPeriod. This index can become very large under high churn rate and long retention. VictoriaMetrics caches data from this index in `indexdb/dataBlocks` in-memory cache for speeding up index lookups. The `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache may occupy significant share of available memory for storing recently accessed blocks at `MetricName -> TSID` index when searching for newly ingested time series. This commit switches from global `MetricName -> TSID` index to per-day index. This allows significantly reducing the amounts of data, which needs to be cached in `indexdb/dataBlocks`, since now VictoriaMetrics consults only the index for the current day when new time series is ingested into it. The downside of this change is increased indexdb size on disk for workloads without high churn rate, e.g. with static time series, which do no change over time, since now VictoriaMetrics needs to store identical `MetricName -> TSID` entries for static time series for every day. This change removes an optimization for reducing CPU and disk IO spikes at indexdb rotation, since it didn't work correctly - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401 . At the same time the change fixes the issue, which could result in lost access to time series, which stop receving new samples during the first hour after indexdb rotation - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2698 The issue with the increased CPU and disk IO usage during indexdb rotation will be addressed in a separate commit according to https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401#issuecomment-1553488685 This is a follow-up for 1f28b46ae9350795af41cbfc3ca0e8a5af084fce

lib/storage: switch from global to per-day index for `MetricName -> TSID` mapping Previously all the newly ingested time series were registered in global `MetricName -> TSID` index. This index was used during data ingestion for locating the TSID (internal series id) for the given canonical metric name (the canonical metric name consists of metric name plus all its labels sorted by label names). The `MetricName -> TSID` index is stored on disk in order to make sure that the data isn't lost on VictoriaMetrics restart or unclean shutdown. The lookup in this index is relatively slow, since VictoriaMetrics needs to read the corresponding data block from disk, unpack it, put the unpacked block into `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache, and then search for the given `MetricName -> TSID` entry there. So VictoriaMetrics uses in-memory cache for speeding up the lookup for active time series. This cache is named `storage/tsid`. If this cache capacity is enough for all the currently ingested active time series, then VictoriaMetrics works fast, since it doesn't need to read the data from disk. VictoriaMetrics starts reading data from `MetricName -> TSID` on-disk index in the following cases: - If `storage/tsid` cache capacity isn't enough for active time series. Then just increase available memory for VictoriaMetrics or reduce the number of active time series ingested into VictoriaMetrics. - If new time series is ingested into VictoriaMetrics. In this case it cannot find the needed entry in the `storage/tsid` cache, so it needs to consult on-disk `MetricName -> TSID` index, since it doesn't know that the index has no the corresponding entry too. This is a typical event under high churn rate, when old time series are constantly substituted with new time series. Reading the data from `MetricName -> TSID` index is slow, so inserts, which lead to reading this index, are counted as slow inserts, and they can be monitored via `vm_slow_row_inserts_total` metric exposed by VictoriaMetrics. Prior to this commit the `MetricName -> TSID` index was global, e.g. it contained entries sorted by `MetricName` for all the time series ever ingested into VictoriaMetrics during the configured -retentionPeriod. This index can become very large under high churn rate and long retention. VictoriaMetrics caches data from this index in `indexdb/dataBlocks` in-memory cache for speeding up index lookups. The `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache may occupy significant share of available memory for storing recently accessed blocks at `MetricName -> TSID` index when searching for newly ingested time series. This commit switches from global `MetricName -> TSID` index to per-day index. This allows significantly reducing the amounts of data, which needs to be cached in `indexdb/dataBlocks`, since now VictoriaMetrics consults only the index for the current day when new time series is ingested into it. The downside of this change is increased indexdb size on disk for workloads without high churn rate, e.g. with static time series, which do no change over time, since now VictoriaMetrics needs to store identical `MetricName -> TSID` entries for static time series for every day. This change removes an optimization for reducing CPU and disk IO spikes at indexdb rotation, since it didn't work correctly - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401 . At the same time the change fixes the issue, which could result in lost access to time series, which stop receving new samples during the first hour after indexdb rotation - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2698 The issue with the increased CPU and disk IO usage during indexdb rotation will be addressed in a separate commit according to https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401#issuecomment-1553488685 This is a follow-up for 1f28b46ae9350795af41cbfc3ca0e8a5af084fce

lib/index: reduce read/write load after indexDB rotation (#2177) * lib/index: reduce read/write load after indexDB rotation IndexDB in VM is responsible for storing TSID - ID's used for identifying time series. The index is stored on disk and used by both ingestion and read path. IndexDB is stored separately to data parts and is global for all stored data. It can't be deleted partially as VM deletes data parts. Instead, indexDB is rotated once in `retention` interval. The rotation procedure means that `current` indexDB becomes `previous`, and new freshly created indexDB struct becomes `current`. So in any time, VM holds indexDB for current and previous retention periods. When time series is ingested or queried, VM checks if its TSID is present in `current` indexDB. If it is missing, it checks the `previous` indexDB. If TSID was found, it gets copied to the `current` indexDB. In this way `current` indexDB stores only series which were active during the retention period. To improve indexDB lookups, VM uses a cache layer called `tsidCache`. Both write and read path consult `tsidCache` and on miss the relad lookup happens. When rotation happens, VM resets the `tsidCache`. This is needed for ingestion path to trigger `current` indexDB re-population. Since index re-population requires additional resources, every index rotation event may cause some extra load on CPU and disk. While it may be unnoticeable for most of the cases, for systems with very high number of unique series each rotation may lead to performance degradation for some period of time. This PR makes an attempt to smooth out resource usage after the rotation. The changes are following: 1. `tsidCache` is no longer reset after the rotation; 2. Instead, each entry in `tsidCache` gains a notion of indexDB to which they belong; 3. On ingestion path after the rotation we check if requested TSID was found in `tsidCache`. Then we have 3 branches: 3.1 Fast path. It was found, and belongs to the `current` indexDB. Return TSID. 3.2 Slow path. It wasn't found, so we generate it from scratch, add to `current` indexDB, add it to `tsidCache`. 3.3 Smooth path. It was found but does not belong to the `current` indexDB. In this case, we add it to the `current` indexDB with some probability. The probability is based on time passed since the last rotation with some threshold. The more time has passed since rotation the higher is chance to re-populate `current` indexDB. The default re-population interval in this PR is set to `1h`, during which entries from `previous` index supposed to slowly re-populate `current` index. The new metric `vm_timeseries_repopulated_total` was added to identify how many TSIDs were moved from `previous` indexDB to the `current` indexDB. This metric supposed to grow only during the first `1h` after the last rotation. https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401 Signed-off-by: hagen1778 <roman@victoriametrics.com> * wip * wip Co-authored-by: Aliaksandr Valialkin <valyala@victoriametrics.com>

Since there is no need for creation new index records for timeseries already ingested into current indexDB https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/4563 * lib/storage: further work on indexdb rotation optimization - Document the change at docs/CHAGNELOG.md - Move back various caches from indexDB to Storage. This makes the change less intrusive. The dateMetricIDCache now takes into account indexDB generation, so it stores (date, metricID) entries for both the current and the next indexDB. - Consolidate the code responsible for idbNext pre-filling into prefillNextIndexDB() function. This improves code readability and maintainability a bit. - Rewrite and simplify the code responsible for calculating the next retention timestamp. Add various tests for corner cases of this code. - Remove indexdb pre-filling from RegisterMetricNames() function, since this function is rarely called. It is OK to add indexdb entries on demand in this function. This simplifies the code.

lib/storage: switch from global to per-day index for `MetricName -> TSID` mapping Previously all the newly ingested time series were registered in global `MetricName -> TSID` index. This index was used during data ingestion for locating the TSID (internal series id) for the given canonical metric name (the canonical metric name consists of metric name plus all its labels sorted by label names). The `MetricName -> TSID` index is stored on disk in order to make sure that the data isn't lost on VictoriaMetrics restart or unclean shutdown. The lookup in this index is relatively slow, since VictoriaMetrics needs to read the corresponding data block from disk, unpack it, put the unpacked block into `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache, and then search for the given `MetricName -> TSID` entry there. So VictoriaMetrics uses in-memory cache for speeding up the lookup for active time series. This cache is named `storage/tsid`. If this cache capacity is enough for all the currently ingested active time series, then VictoriaMetrics works fast, since it doesn't need to read the data from disk. VictoriaMetrics starts reading data from `MetricName -> TSID` on-disk index in the following cases: - If `storage/tsid` cache capacity isn't enough for active time series. Then just increase available memory for VictoriaMetrics or reduce the number of active time series ingested into VictoriaMetrics. - If new time series is ingested into VictoriaMetrics. In this case it cannot find the needed entry in the `storage/tsid` cache, so it needs to consult on-disk `MetricName -> TSID` index, since it doesn't know that the index has no the corresponding entry too. This is a typical event under high churn rate, when old time series are constantly substituted with new time series. Reading the data from `MetricName -> TSID` index is slow, so inserts, which lead to reading this index, are counted as slow inserts, and they can be monitored via `vm_slow_row_inserts_total` metric exposed by VictoriaMetrics. Prior to this commit the `MetricName -> TSID` index was global, e.g. it contained entries sorted by `MetricName` for all the time series ever ingested into VictoriaMetrics during the configured -retentionPeriod. This index can become very large under high churn rate and long retention. VictoriaMetrics caches data from this index in `indexdb/dataBlocks` in-memory cache for speeding up index lookups. The `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache may occupy significant share of available memory for storing recently accessed blocks at `MetricName -> TSID` index when searching for newly ingested time series. This commit switches from global `MetricName -> TSID` index to per-day index.

The lookup in this index is relatively slow, since VictoriaMetrics needs to read the corresponding data block from disk, unpack it, put the unpacked block into `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache, and then search for the given `MetricName -> TSID` entry there. So VictoriaMetrics uses in-memory cache for speeding up the lookup for active time series. This cache is named `storage/tsid`. If this cache capacity is enough for all the currently ingested active time series, then VictoriaMetrics works fast, since it doesn't need to read the data from disk. VictoriaMetrics starts reading data from `MetricName -> TSID` on-disk index in the following cases: - If `storage/tsid` cache capacity isn't enough for active time series. Then just increase available memory for VictoriaMetrics or reduce the number of active time series ingested into VictoriaMetrics. - If new time series is ingested into VictoriaMetrics. In this case it cannot find the needed entry in the `storage/tsid` cache, so it needs to consult on-disk `MetricName -> TSID` index, since it doesn't know that the index has no the corresponding entry too. This is a typical event under high churn rate, when old time series are constantly substituted with new time series. Reading the data from `MetricName -> TSID` index is slow, so inserts, which lead to reading this index, are counted as slow inserts, and they can be monitored via `vm_slow_row_inserts_total` metric exposed by VictoriaMetrics. Prior to this commit the `MetricName -> TSID` index was global, e.g. it contained entries sorted by `MetricName` for all the time series ever ingested into VictoriaMetrics during the configured -retentionPeriod. This index can become very large under high churn rate and long retention. VictoriaMetrics caches data from this index in `indexdb/dataBlocks` in-memory cache for speeding up index lookups. The `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache may occupy significant share of available memory for storing recently accessed blocks at `MetricName -> TSID` index when searching for newly ingested time series. This commit switches from global `MetricName -> TSID` index to per-day index. This allows significantly reducing the amounts of data, which needs to be cached in `indexdb/dataBlocks`, since now VictoriaMetrics consults only the index for the current day when new time series is ingested into it. The downside of this change is increased indexdb size on disk for workloads without high churn rate, e.g. with static time series, which do no change over time, since now VictoriaMetrics needs to store identical `MetricName -> TSID` entries for static time series for every day. This change removes an optimization for reducing CPU and disk IO spikes at indexdb rotation, since it didn't work correctly - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401 . At the same time the change fixes the issue, which could result in lost access to time series, which stop receving new samples during the first hour after indexdb rotation - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2698 The issue with the increased CPU and disk IO usage during indexdb rotation will be addressed in a separate commit according to https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401#issuecomment-1553488685 This is a follow-up for 1f28b46ae9350795af41cbfc3ca0e8a5af084fce

lib/index: reduce read/write load after indexDB rotation (#2177) * lib/index: reduce read/write load after indexDB rotation IndexDB in VM is responsible for storing TSID - ID's used for identifying time series. The index is stored on disk and used by both ingestion and read path. IndexDB is stored separately to data parts and is global for all stored data. It can't be deleted partially as VM deletes data parts. Instead, indexDB is rotated once in `retention` interval. The rotation procedure means that `current` indexDB becomes `previous`, and new freshly created indexDB struct becomes `current`. So in any time, VM holds indexDB for current and previous retention periods. When time series is ingested or queried, VM checks if its TSID is present in `current` indexDB. If it is missing, it checks the `previous` indexDB. If TSID was found, it gets copied to the `current` indexDB. In this way `current` indexDB stores only series which were active during the retention period. To improve indexDB lookups, VM uses a cache layer called `tsidCache`. Both write and read path consult `tsidCache` and on miss the relad lookup happens. When rotation happens, VM resets the `tsidCache`. This is needed for ingestion path to trigger `current` indexDB re-population. Since index re-population requires additional resources, every index rotation event may cause some extra load on CPU and disk. While it may be unnoticeable for most of the cases, for systems with very high number of unique series each rotation may lead to performance degradation for some period of time. This PR makes an attempt to smooth out resource usage after the rotation. The changes are following: 1. `tsidCache` is no longer reset after the rotation; 2. Instead, each entry in `tsidCache` gains a notion of indexDB to which they belong; 3. On ingestion path after the rotation we check if requested TSID was found in `tsidCache`. Then we have 3 branches: 3.1 Fast path. It was found, and belongs to the `current` indexDB. Return TSID. 3.2 Slow path. It wasn't found, so we generate it from scratch, add to `current` indexDB, add it to `tsidCache`. 3.3 Smooth path. It was found but does not belong to the `current` indexDB. In this case, we add it to the `current` indexDB with some probability. The probability is based on time passed since the last rotation with some threshold. The more time has passed since rotation the higher is chance to re-populate `current` indexDB. The default re-population interval in this PR is set to `1h`, during which entries from `previous` index supposed to slowly re-populate `current` index. The new metric `vm_timeseries_repopulated_total` was added to identify how many TSIDs were moved from `previous` indexDB to the `current` indexDB. This metric supposed to grow only during the first `1h` after the last rotation. https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401 Signed-off-by: hagen1778 <roman@victoriametrics.com> * wip * wip Co-authored-by: Aliaksandr Valialkin <valyala@victoriametrics.com>

lib/storage: switch from global to per-day index for `MetricName -> TSID` mapping Previously all the newly ingested time series were registered in global `MetricName -> TSID` index. This index was used during data ingestion for locating the TSID (internal series id) for the given canonical metric name (the canonical metric name consists of metric name plus all its labels sorted by label names). The `MetricName -> TSID` index is stored on disk in order to make sure that the data isn't lost on VictoriaMetrics restart or unclean shutdown. The lookup in this index is relatively slow, since VictoriaMetrics needs to read the corresponding data block from disk, unpack it, put the unpacked block into `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache, and then search for the given `MetricName -> TSID` entry there. So VictoriaMetrics uses in-memory cache for speeding up the lookup for active time series. This cache is named `storage/tsid`. If this cache capacity is enough for all the currently ingested active time series, then VictoriaMetrics works fast, since it doesn't need to read the data from disk. VictoriaMetrics starts reading data from `MetricName -> TSID` on-disk index in the following cases: - If `storage/tsid` cache capacity isn't enough for active time series. Then just increase available memory for VictoriaMetrics or reduce the number of active time series ingested into VictoriaMetrics. - If new time series is ingested into VictoriaMetrics. In this case it cannot find the needed entry in the `storage/tsid` cache, so it needs to consult on-disk `MetricName -> TSID` index, since it doesn't know that the index has no the corresponding entry too. This is a typical event under high churn rate, when old time series are constantly substituted with new time series. Reading the data from `MetricName -> TSID` index is slow, so inserts, which lead to reading this index, are counted as slow inserts, and they can be monitored via `vm_slow_row_inserts_total` metric exposed by VictoriaMetrics. Prior to this commit the `MetricName -> TSID` index was global, e.g. it contained entries sorted by `MetricName` for all the time series ever ingested into VictoriaMetrics during the configured -retentionPeriod. This index can become very large under high churn rate and long retention. VictoriaMetrics caches data from this index in `indexdb/dataBlocks` in-memory cache for speeding up index lookups. The `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache may occupy significant share of available memory for storing recently accessed blocks at `MetricName -> TSID` index when searching for newly ingested time series. This commit switches from global `MetricName -> TSID` index to per-day index. This allows significantly reducing the amounts of data, which needs to be cached in `indexdb/dataBlocks`, since now VictoriaMetrics consults only the index for the current day when new time series is ingested into it.

lib/storage: switch from global to per-day index for `MetricName -> TSID` mapping Previously all the newly ingested time series were registered in global `MetricName -> TSID` index. This index was used during data ingestion for locating the TSID (internal series id) for the given canonical metric name (the canonical metric name consists of metric name plus all its labels sorted by label names). The `MetricName -> TSID` index is stored on disk in order to make sure that the data isn't lost on VictoriaMetrics restart or unclean shutdown. The lookup in this index is relatively slow, since VictoriaMetrics needs to read the corresponding data block from disk, unpack it, put the unpacked block into `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache, and then search for the given `MetricName -> TSID` entry there. So VictoriaMetrics uses in-memory cache for speeding up the lookup for active time series. This cache is named `storage/tsid`. If this cache capacity is enough for all the currently ingested active time series, then VictoriaMetrics works fast, since it doesn't need to read the data from disk. VictoriaMetrics starts reading data from `MetricName -> TSID` on-disk index in the following cases: - If `storage/tsid` cache capacity isn't enough for active time series. Then just increase available memory for VictoriaMetrics or reduce the number of active time series ingested into VictoriaMetrics. - If new time series is ingested into VictoriaMetrics. In this case it cannot find the needed entry in the `storage/tsid` cache, so it needs to consult on-disk `MetricName -> TSID` index, since it doesn't know that the index has no the corresponding entry too. This is a typical event under high churn rate, when old time series are constantly substituted with new time series. Reading the data from `MetricName -> TSID` index is slow, so inserts, which lead to reading this index, are counted as slow inserts, and they can be monitored via `vm_slow_row_inserts_total` metric exposed by VictoriaMetrics. Prior to this commit the `MetricName -> TSID` index was global, e.g. it contained entries sorted by `MetricName` for all the time series ever ingested into VictoriaMetrics during the configured -retentionPeriod. This index can become very large under high churn rate and long retention. VictoriaMetrics caches data from this index in `indexdb/dataBlocks` in-memory cache for speeding up index lookups. The `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache may occupy significant share of available memory for storing recently accessed blocks at `MetricName -> TSID` index when searching for newly ingested time series. This commit switches from global `MetricName -> TSID` index to per-day index. This allows significantly reducing the amounts of data, which needs to be cached in `indexdb/dataBlocks`, since now VictoriaMetrics consults only the index for the current day when new time series is ingested into it.

lib/index: reduce read/write load after indexDB rotation (#2177) * lib/index: reduce read/write load after indexDB rotation IndexDB in VM is responsible for storing TSID - ID's used for identifying time series. The index is stored on disk and used by both ingestion and read path. IndexDB is stored separately to data parts and is global for all stored data. It can't be deleted partially as VM deletes data parts. Instead, indexDB is rotated once in `retention` interval. The rotation procedure means that `current` indexDB becomes `previous`, and new freshly created indexDB struct becomes `current`. So in any time, VM holds indexDB for current and previous retention periods. When time series is ingested or queried, VM checks if its TSID is present in `current` indexDB. If it is missing, it checks the `previous` indexDB. If TSID was found, it gets copied to the `current` indexDB. In this way `current` indexDB stores only series which were active during the retention period. To improve indexDB lookups, VM uses a cache layer called `tsidCache`. Both write and read path consult `tsidCache` and on miss the relad lookup happens. When rotation happens, VM resets the `tsidCache`. This is needed for ingestion path to trigger `current` indexDB re-population. Since index re-population requires additional resources, every index rotation event may cause some extra load on CPU and disk. While it may be unnoticeable for most of the cases, for systems with very high number of unique series each rotation may lead to performance degradation for some period of time. This PR makes an attempt to smooth out resource usage after the rotation. The changes are following: 1. `tsidCache` is no longer reset after the rotation; 2. Instead, each entry in `tsidCache` gains a notion of indexDB to which they belong; 3. On ingestion path after the rotation we check if requested TSID was found in `tsidCache`. Then we have 3 branches: 3.1 Fast path. It was found, and belongs to the `current` indexDB. Return TSID. 3.2 Slow path. It wasn't found, so we generate it from scratch, add to `current` indexDB, add it to `tsidCache`. 3.3 Smooth path. It was found but does not belong to the `current` indexDB. In this case, we add it to the `current` indexDB with some probability. The probability is based on time passed since the last rotation with some threshold. The more time has passed since rotation the higher is chance to re-populate `current` indexDB. The default re-population interval in this PR is set to `1h`, during which entries from `previous` index supposed to slowly re-populate `current` index. The new metric `vm_timeseries_repopulated_total` was added to identify how many TSIDs were moved from `previous` indexDB to the `current` indexDB. This metric supposed to grow only during the first `1h` after the last rotation. https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401 Signed-off-by: hagen1778 <roman@victoriametrics.com> * wip * wip Co-authored-by: Aliaksandr Valialkin <valyala@victoriametrics.com>

lib/storage: switch from global to per-day index for `MetricName -> TSID` mapping Previously all the newly ingested time series were registered in global `MetricName -> TSID` index. This index was used during data ingestion for locating the TSID (internal series id) for the given canonical metric name (the canonical metric name consists of metric name plus all its labels sorted by label names). The `MetricName -> TSID` index is stored on disk in order to make sure that the data isn't lost on VictoriaMetrics restart or unclean shutdown. The lookup in this index is relatively slow, since VictoriaMetrics needs to read the corresponding data block from disk, unpack it, put the unpacked block into `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache, and then search for the given `MetricName -> TSID` entry there. So VictoriaMetrics uses in-memory cache for speeding up the lookup for active time series. This cache is named `storage/tsid`. If this cache capacity is enough for all the currently ingested active time series, then VictoriaMetrics works fast, since it doesn't need to read the data from disk. VictoriaMetrics starts reading data from `MetricName -> TSID` on-disk index in the following cases: - If `storage/tsid` cache capacity isn't enough for active time series. Then just increase available memory for VictoriaMetrics or reduce the number of active time series ingested into VictoriaMetrics. - If new time series is ingested into VictoriaMetrics. In this case it cannot find the needed entry in the `storage/tsid` cache, so it needs to consult on-disk `MetricName -> TSID` index, since it doesn't know that the index has no the corresponding entry too. This is a typical event under high churn rate, when old time series are constantly substituted with new time series. Reading the data from `MetricName -> TSID` index is slow, so inserts, which lead to reading this index, are counted as slow inserts, and they can be monitored via `vm_slow_row_inserts_total` metric exposed by VictoriaMetrics. Prior to this commit the `MetricName -> TSID` index was global, e.g. it contained entries sorted by `MetricName` for all the time series ever ingested into VictoriaMetrics during the configured -retentionPeriod. This index can become very large under high churn rate and long retention. VictoriaMetrics caches data from this index in `indexdb/dataBlocks` in-memory cache for speeding up index lookups. The `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache may occupy significant share of available memory for storing recently accessed blocks at `MetricName -> TSID` index when searching for newly ingested time series. This commit switches from global `MetricName -> TSID` index to per-day index. This allows significantly reducing the amounts of data, which needs to be cached in `indexdb/dataBlocks`, since now VictoriaMetrics consults only the index for the current day when new time series is ingested into it.

The `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache may occupy significant share of available memory for storing recently accessed blocks at `MetricName -> TSID` index when searching for newly ingested time series. This commit switches from global `MetricName -> TSID` index to per-day index. This allows significantly reducing the amounts of data, which needs to be cached in `indexdb/dataBlocks`, since now VictoriaMetrics consults only the index for the current day when new time series is ingested into it. The downside of this change is increased indexdb size on disk for workloads without high churn rate, e.g. with static time series, which do no change over time, since now VictoriaMetrics needs to store identical `MetricName -> TSID` entries for static time series for every day. This change removes an optimization for reducing CPU and disk IO spikes at indexdb rotation, since it didn't work correctly - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401 . At the same time the change fixes the issue, which could result in lost access to time series, which stop receving new samples during the first hour after indexdb rotation - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2698 The issue with the increased CPU and disk IO usage during indexdb rotation will be addressed in a separate commit according to https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401#issuecomment-1553488685 This is a follow-up for 1f28b46ae9350795af41cbfc3ca0e8a5af084fce

lib/storage: switch from global to per-day index for `MetricName -> TSID` mapping Previously all the newly ingested time series were registered in global `MetricName -> TSID` index. This index was used during data ingestion for locating the TSID (internal series id) for the given canonical metric name (the canonical metric name consists of metric name plus all its labels sorted by label names). The `MetricName -> TSID` index is stored on disk in order to make sure that the data isn't lost on VictoriaMetrics restart or unclean shutdown. The lookup in this index is relatively slow, since VictoriaMetrics needs to read the corresponding data block from disk, unpack it, put the unpacked block into `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache, and then search for the given `MetricName -> TSID` entry there. So VictoriaMetrics uses in-memory cache for speeding up the lookup for active time series. This cache is named `storage/tsid`. If this cache capacity is enough for all the currently ingested active time series, then VictoriaMetrics works fast, since it doesn't need to read the data from disk. VictoriaMetrics starts reading data from `MetricName -> TSID` on-disk index in the following cases: - If `storage/tsid` cache capacity isn't enough for active time series. Then just increase available memory for VictoriaMetrics or reduce the number of active time series ingested into VictoriaMetrics. - If new time series is ingested into VictoriaMetrics. In this case it cannot find the needed entry in the `storage/tsid` cache, so it needs to consult on-disk `MetricName -> TSID` index, since it doesn't know that the index has no the corresponding entry too. This is a typical event under high churn rate, when old time series are constantly substituted with new time series. Reading the data from `MetricName -> TSID` index is slow, so inserts, which lead to reading this index, are counted as slow inserts, and they can be monitored via `vm_slow_row_inserts_total` metric exposed by VictoriaMetrics. Prior to this commit the `MetricName -> TSID` index was global, e.g. it contained entries sorted by `MetricName` for all the time series ever ingested into VictoriaMetrics during the configured -retentionPeriod.

lib/storage: switch from global to per-day index for `MetricName -> TSID` mapping Previously all the newly ingested time series were registered in global `MetricName -> TSID` index. This index was used during data ingestion for locating the TSID (internal series id) for the given canonical metric name (the canonical metric name consists of metric name plus all its labels sorted by label names). The `MetricName -> TSID` index is stored on disk in order to make sure that the data isn't lost on VictoriaMetrics restart or unclean shutdown. The lookup in this index is relatively slow, since VictoriaMetrics needs to read the corresponding data block from disk, unpack it, put the unpacked block into `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache, and then search for the given `MetricName -> TSID` entry there. So VictoriaMetrics uses in-memory cache for speeding up the lookup for active time series. This cache is named `storage/tsid`. If this cache capacity is enough for all the currently ingested active time series, then VictoriaMetrics works fast, since it doesn't need to read the data from disk. VictoriaMetrics starts reading data from `MetricName -> TSID` on-disk index in the following cases: - If `storage/tsid` cache capacity isn't enough for active time series. Then just increase available memory for VictoriaMetrics or reduce the number of active time series ingested into VictoriaMetrics. - If new time series is ingested into VictoriaMetrics. In this case it cannot find the needed entry in the `storage/tsid` cache, so it needs to consult on-disk `MetricName -> TSID` index, since it doesn't know that the index has no the corresponding entry too. This is a typical event under high churn rate, when old time series are constantly substituted with new time series. Reading the data from `MetricName -> TSID` index is slow, so inserts, which lead to reading this index, are counted as slow inserts, and they can be monitored via `vm_slow_row_inserts_total` metric exposed by VictoriaMetrics. Prior to this commit the `MetricName -> TSID` index was global, e.g. it contained entries sorted by `MetricName` for all the time series ever ingested into VictoriaMetrics during the configured -retentionPeriod. This index can become very large under high churn rate and long retention. VictoriaMetrics caches data from this index in `indexdb/dataBlocks` in-memory cache for speeding up index lookups. The `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache may occupy significant share of available memory for storing recently accessed blocks at `MetricName -> TSID` index when searching for newly ingested time series. This commit switches from global `MetricName -> TSID` index to per-day index. This allows significantly reducing the amounts of data, which needs to be cached in `indexdb/dataBlocks`, since now VictoriaMetrics consults only the index for the current day when new time series is ingested into it. The downside of this change is increased indexdb size on disk for workloads without high churn rate, e.g. with static time series, which do no change over time, since now VictoriaMetrics needs to store identical `MetricName -> TSID` entries for static time series for every day. This change removes an optimization for reducing CPU and disk IO spikes at indexdb rotation, since it didn't work correctly - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401 . At the same time the change fixes the issue, which could result in lost access to time series, which stop receving new samples during the first hour after indexdb rotation - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2698 The issue with the increased CPU and disk IO usage during indexdb rotation will be addressed in a separate commit according to https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401#issuecomment-1553488685 This is a follow-up for 1f28b46ae9350795af41cbfc3ca0e8a5af084fce

The downside of this change is increased indexdb size on disk for workloads without high churn rate, e.g. with static time series, which do no change over time, since now VictoriaMetrics needs to store identical `MetricName -> TSID` entries for static time series for every day. This change removes an optimization for reducing CPU and disk IO spikes at indexdb rotation, since it didn't work correctly - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401 . At the same time the change fixes the issue, which could result in lost access to time series, which stop receving new samples during the first hour after indexdb rotation - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2698 The issue with the increased CPU and disk IO usage during indexdb rotation will be addressed in a separate commit according to https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401#issuecomment-1553488685 This is a follow-up for 1f28b46ae9350795af41cbfc3ca0e8a5af084fce

lib/storage: pre-create timeseries before indexDB rotation (#4652) * lib/storage: pre-create timeseries before indexDB rotation during an hour before indexDB rotation start creating records at the next indexDB it must improve performance during switch for the next indexDB and remove ingestion issues. Since there is no need for creation new index records for timeseries already ingested into current indexDB https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/4563 * lib/storage: further work on indexdb rotation optimization - Document the change at docs/CHAGNELOG.md - Move back various caches from indexDB to Storage. This makes the change less intrusive. The dateMetricIDCache now takes into account indexDB generation, so it stores (date, metricID) entries for both the current and the next indexDB. - Consolidate the code responsible for idbNext pre-filling into prefillNextIndexDB() function. This improves code readability and maintainability a bit. - Rewrite and simplify the code responsible for calculating the next retention timestamp. Add various tests for corner cases of this code. - Remove indexdb pre-filling from RegisterMetricNames() function, since this function is rarely called. It is OK to add indexdb entries on demand in this function. This simplifies the code. Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401 * docs/CHANGELOG.md: refer to https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/4563 --------- Co-authored-by: Aliaksandr Valialkin <valyala@victoriametrics.com>

lib/storage: switch from global to per-day index for `MetricName -> TSID` mapping Previously all the newly ingested time series were registered in global `MetricName -> TSID` index. This index was used during data ingestion for locating the TSID (internal series id) for the given canonical metric name (the canonical metric name consists of metric name plus all its labels sorted by label names). The `MetricName -> TSID` index is stored on disk in order to make sure that the data isn't lost on VictoriaMetrics restart or unclean shutdown. The lookup in this index is relatively slow, since VictoriaMetrics needs to read the corresponding data block from disk, unpack it, put the unpacked block into `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache, and then search for the given `MetricName -> TSID` entry there. So VictoriaMetrics uses in-memory cache for speeding up the lookup for active time series. This cache is named `storage/tsid`. If this cache capacity is enough for all the currently ingested active time series, then VictoriaMetrics works fast, since it doesn't need to read the data from disk. VictoriaMetrics starts reading data from `MetricName -> TSID` on-disk index in the following cases: - If `storage/tsid` cache capacity isn't enough for active time series. Then just increase available memory for VictoriaMetrics or reduce the number of active time series ingested into VictoriaMetrics. - If new time series is ingested into VictoriaMetrics. In this case it cannot find the needed entry in the `storage/tsid` cache, so it needs to consult on-disk `MetricName -> TSID` index, since it doesn't know that the index has no the corresponding entry too. This is a typical event under high churn rate, when old time series are constantly substituted with new time series. Reading the data from `MetricName -> TSID` index is slow, so inserts, which lead to reading this index, are counted as slow inserts, and they can be monitored via `vm_slow_row_inserts_total` metric exposed by VictoriaMetrics. Prior to this commit the `MetricName -> TSID` index was global, e.g. it contained entries sorted by `MetricName` for all the time series ever ingested into VictoriaMetrics during the configured -retentionPeriod. This index can become very large under high churn rate and long retention. VictoriaMetrics caches data from this index in `indexdb/dataBlocks` in-memory cache for speeding up index lookups. The `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache may occupy significant share of available memory for storing recently accessed blocks at `MetricName -> TSID` index when searching for newly ingested time series. This commit switches from global `MetricName -> TSID` index to per-day index. This allows significantly reducing the amounts of data, which needs to be cached in `indexdb/dataBlocks`, since now VictoriaMetrics consults only the index for the current day when new time series is ingested into it.

lib/storage: switch from global to per-day index for `MetricName -> TSID` mapping Previously all the newly ingested time series were registered in global `MetricName -> TSID` index. This index was used during data ingestion for locating the TSID (internal series id) for the given canonical metric name (the canonical metric name consists of metric name plus all its labels sorted by label names). The `MetricName -> TSID` index is stored on disk in order to make sure that the data isn't lost on VictoriaMetrics restart or unclean shutdown. The lookup in this index is relatively slow, since VictoriaMetrics needs to read the corresponding data block from disk, unpack it, put the unpacked block into `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache, and then search for the given `MetricName -> TSID` entry there. So VictoriaMetrics uses in-memory cache for speeding up the lookup for active time series. This cache is named `storage/tsid`. If this cache capacity is enough for all the currently ingested active time series, then VictoriaMetrics works fast, since it doesn't need to read the data from disk. VictoriaMetrics starts reading data from `MetricName -> TSID` on-disk index in the following cases: - If `storage/tsid` cache capacity isn't enough for active time series. Then just increase available memory for VictoriaMetrics or reduce the number of active time series ingested into VictoriaMetrics. - If new time series is ingested into VictoriaMetrics. In this case it cannot find the needed entry in the `storage/tsid` cache, so it needs to consult on-disk `MetricName -> TSID` index, since it doesn't know that the index has no the corresponding entry too. This is a typical event under high churn rate, when old time series are constantly substituted with new time series. Reading the data from `MetricName -> TSID` index is slow, so inserts, which lead to reading this index, are counted as slow inserts, and they can be monitored via `vm_slow_row_inserts_total` metric exposed by VictoriaMetrics. Prior to this commit the `MetricName -> TSID` index was global, e.g. it contained entries sorted by `MetricName` for all the time series ever ingested into VictoriaMetrics during the configured -retentionPeriod. This index can become very large under high churn rate and long retention. VictoriaMetrics caches data from this index in `indexdb/dataBlocks` in-memory cache for speeding up index lookups. The `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache may occupy significant share of available memory for storing recently accessed blocks at `MetricName -> TSID` index when searching for newly ingested time series. This commit switches from global `MetricName -> TSID` index to per-day index. This allows significantly reducing the amounts of data, which needs to be cached in `indexdb/dataBlocks`, since now VictoriaMetrics consults only the index for the current day when new time series is ingested into it. The downside of this change is increased indexdb size on disk for workloads without high churn rate, e.g. with static time series, which do no change over time, since now VictoriaMetrics needs to store identical `MetricName -> TSID` entries for static time series for every day. This change removes an optimization for reducing CPU and disk IO spikes at indexdb rotation, since it didn't work correctly - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401 . At the same time the change fixes the issue, which could result in lost access to time series, which stop receving new samples during the first hour after indexdb rotation - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2698 The issue with the increased CPU and disk IO usage during indexdb rotation will be addressed in a separate commit according to https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401#issuecomment-1553488685 This is a follow-up for 1f28b46ae9350795af41cbfc3ca0e8a5af084fce

lib/storage: revert the migration from global to per-day index for (MetricName -> TSID) This reverts the following commits: - e0e16a2d36d3ad916ad0df2f681e7ff250111d98 - 2ce02a7fe65e20eb9bf3102919dede415a469672 The reason for revert: the updated logic breaks assumptions made when fixing https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2698 . For example, if a time series stop receiving new samples during the first day after the indexdb rotation, there are chances that the time series won't be registered in the new indexdb. This is OK until the next indexdb rotation, since the time series is registered in the previous indexdb, so it can be found during queries. But the time series will become invisible for search after the next indexdb rotation, while its data is still there. There is also incompletely solved issue with the increased CPU and disk IO resource usage just after the indexdb rotation. There was an attempt to fix it, but it didn't fix it in full, while introducing the issue mentioned above. See https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401 TODO: to find out the solution, which simultaneously solves the following issues: - increased memory usage for setups high churn rate and long retention (e.g. what the reverted commit does) - increased CPU and disk IO usage during indexdb rotation ( https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401 ) - https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2698 Possible solution - to create the new indexdb in one hour before the indexdb rotation and to gradually pre-populate it with the needed index data during the last hour before indexdb rotation. Then the new indexdb will contain all the needed data just after the rotation, so it won't trigger increased CPU and disk IO.

lib/index: reduce read/write load after indexDB rotation (#2177) * lib/index: reduce read/write load after indexDB rotation IndexDB in VM is responsible for storing TSID - ID's used for identifying time series. The index is stored on disk and used by both ingestion and read path. IndexDB is stored separately to data parts and is global for all stored data. It can't be deleted partially as VM deletes data parts. Instead, indexDB is rotated once in `retention` interval. The rotation procedure means that `current` indexDB becomes `previous`, and new freshly created indexDB struct becomes `current`. So in any time, VM holds indexDB for current and previous retention periods. When time series is ingested or queried, VM checks if its TSID is present in `current` indexDB. If it is missing, it checks the `previous` indexDB. If TSID was found, it gets copied to the `current` indexDB. In this way `current` indexDB stores only series which were active during the retention period. To improve indexDB lookups, VM uses a cache layer called `tsidCache`. Both write and read path consult `tsidCache` and on miss the relad lookup happens. When rotation happens, VM resets the `tsidCache`. This is needed for ingestion path to trigger `current` indexDB re-population. Since index re-population requires additional resources, every index rotation event may cause some extra load on CPU and disk. While it may be unnoticeable for most of the cases, for systems with very high number of unique series each rotation may lead to performance degradation for some period of time. This PR makes an attempt to smooth out resource usage after the rotation. The changes are following: 1. `tsidCache` is no longer reset after the rotation; 2. Instead, each entry in `tsidCache` gains a notion of indexDB to which they belong; 3. On ingestion path after the rotation we check if requested TSID was found in `tsidCache`. Then we have 3 branches: 3.1 Fast path. It was found, and belongs to the `current` indexDB. Return TSID. 3.2 Slow path. It wasn't found, so we generate it from scratch, add to `current` indexDB, add it to `tsidCache`. 3.3 Smooth path. It was found but does not belong to the `current` indexDB. In this case, we add it to the `current` indexDB with some probability. The probability is based on time passed since the last rotation with some threshold. The more time has passed since rotation the higher is chance to re-populate `current` indexDB. The default re-population interval in this PR is set to `1h`, during which entries from `previous` index supposed to slowly re-populate `current` index. The new metric `vm_timeseries_repopulated_total` was added to identify how many TSIDs were moved from `previous` indexDB to the `current` indexDB. This metric supposed to grow only during the first `1h` after the last rotation. https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401 Signed-off-by: hagen1778 <roman@victoriametrics.com> * wip * wip Co-authored-by: Aliaksandr Valialkin <valyala@victoriametrics.com>
