I am new to GeoMesa. I mean I just typed geomesa command. So, after following the command line tools tutorial on GeoMesa website. I found some information on ingesting data to geomesa through a .csv file.
So, for my research:
I have a MySQL database storing all the information sent from an Android Application.
And I want to perform some geo spatial analytics on it.
Right now I am converting my MySQL table to .csv file and then ingest it into geomesa as adviced on GeoMesa website.
But my questions are:
Is there any other better option because data is in GB and its a streaming data, hence I have to make .csv file regularly?
Is there any API through which I can connect my MySQL database to geomesa?
Is there any way to ingest using .sql dump file because that would be more easier then .csv file?
Since you are dealing with streaming data, I'd point to two GeoMesa integrations:
First, you might want to check out NiFi for managing data flows. If that fits into your architecture, then you can use GeoMesa with NiFi.
Second, Storm is quite popular for working with streaming data. GeoMesa has a brief tutorial for Storm here.
Third, to ingest sql dumps directly, one option would be to extend the GeoMesa converter library to support them. So far, we haven't had that as a feature request from a customer or a contribution to the project. It'd definitely be a sensible and welcome extension!
I'd also point out the GeoMesa gitter channel. It can be useful for quicker responses.

My application requires some kind of data backup and some kind of data exchange between users, so what I want to achieve is the ability to export an entity but not the entire database.
I have found some help but for the full database, like this post:
Backup core data locally, and restore from backup - Swift
This applies to the entire database.
I tried to export a JSON file, this might work except that the entity I'm trying to export contains images as binary data.
So I'm stuck.
Any help exporting not the full database but just one entity or how to write a JSON that includes binary data.
Take a look at protobuf. Apple has an official swift lib for it
https://github.com/apple/swift-protobuf
Protobuf is an alternate encoding to JSON that has direct support for serializing binary data. There are client libraries for any language you might need to read the data in, or command-line tools if you want to examine the files manually.
Technologies I am using to fetch data from my MySQL database is Spark 2.4.4 and Scala. I want to display that data in my Angular8 project. Any help on how to do it? I could not find any documentation regarding this.
I am not sure if this is a scala/spark related question. It sounds more towards system design of your project.
One solution is to use your Angular8 directly read from MySQL. There are tons of tutorials online.
Another solution is to use your spark/scala to read data and dump to CSV/JSON file at somewhere and use Angular8 to read in that file. The pros is that you can do some transformation before displaying your data. The cons is that there is latency between transformation and displaying. After reading the flat file into JSON it's up to you how to render that data on user's screen.
I have searched high and low, but it seems like mysqldump and "select ... into outfile" are both intentionally blocked by not allowing file permissions to the db admin. Wouldn't it save a lot more server resources to allow file permissions than to disallow them? Any other import/export method I can find uses executes much slower, especially with tables that have millions of rows. Does anyone know a better way? I find it hard to believe Azure left no good way to do this common task.
You did not list the other options you found to be slow, but have you thought about using Azure Data Factory:
Use Data Factory, a cloud data integration service, to compose data storage, movement, and processing services into automated data pipelines.
It supports exporting data from Azure MySQL and MySQL:
You can copy data from MySQL database to any supported sink data store. For a list of data stores that are supported as sources/sinks by the copy activity, see Supported data stores and formats
Azure Data Factory allows you to define mappings (optional!), and / or transform the data as needed. It has a pay per use pricing model.
You can start an export manually or using a schedule using the .Net or Python SKD , the Rest api or Powershell.
It seems you are looking to export the data to a file, so Azure Blob Storage or Azure Files are likely to be a good destination. FTP or the local file system are also possible.
"SELECT INTO ... OUTFILE" we can achieve this using mysqlworkbench
1.Select the table
2.Table Data export wizard
3.export the data in the form of csv or Json
I am working with a large twitter dataset in the form of a JSON file. When I try to import that into Tableau, there is an error and the upload fails on the account of data upload limit of 128 MB.
Due to which I need to shrink the dataset to bring it to 128MB thereby reducing the effectiveness of the analysis.
What is the best way to upload and handle large JSON data in tableau?
Do I need to use an external tool for it?
Can we use AWS products to handle the same? Please advise!
From what I can find in unofficial documents online, Tableau does indeed have a 128 MB limit on JSON file size. You have several options.
Split the JSON files into multiple files and union them in your data source (https://onlinehelp.tableau.com/current/pro/desktop/en-us/examples_json.html#Union)
Use a tool to convert the JSON to csv or Excel (Google for JSON to csv converter)
Load the JSON into a database, such as MySql and use the MySql as the data source
You may want to consider posting in the Ideas section of the Tableau Community pages and add a suggestion for allowing larger JSON files. This will bring it to the attention of the broader Tableau community and product management.
Has anyone had much experience with data migration into and out of NetSuite? I have to export DB2 tables into MySQL, manipulate data, and then export ina CSV file. Then take a CSV file of accounts and manipulate the data again for accounts to match up from our old system to new. Anyone tried to do this in MySQL?
A couple of options:
Invest in a data transformation tool that connects to NetSuite and DB2 or MySQL. Look at Dell Boomi, IBM Cast Iron, etc. These tools allow you to connect to both systems, define the data to be extracted, perform data transformation functions and mappings and do all the inserts/updates or whatever you need to do.
For MySQL to NetSuite, php scripts can be written to access MySQL and NetSuite. On the NetSuite side, you can either do SOAP web services, or you can write custom REST APIs within NetSuite. SOAP is probably a bit slower than REST, but with REST, you have to write the API yourself (server side JavaScript - it's not hard, but there's a learning curve).
Hope this helps.
I'm an IBM i programmer; try CPYTOIMPF to create a pretty generic CSV file. I'll go to a stream file - if you have NetServer running you can map a network drive to the IFS directory or you can use FTP to get the CSV file from the IFS to another machine in your network.
Try Adeptia's Netsuite integration tool to perform ETL. You can also try Pentaho ETL for this (As far as I know Celigo's Netsuite connector is built upon Pentaho). Also Jitterbit does have an extension for Netsuite.
We primarily have 2 options to pump data into NS:
i)SuiteTalk ---> Using which we can have SOAP based transformations.There are 2 versions of SuiteTalk synchronous and asynchronous.
Typical tools like Boomi/Mule/Jitterbit use synchronous SuiteTalk to pump data into NS.They also have decent editors to help you do mapping.
ii)RESTlets ---> which are typical REST based architures by NS can also be used but you may have to write external brokers to communicate with them.
Depending on your need you can have whatever you need.IN most of the cases you will be using SuiteTalk to bring in data to Netsuite.
Hope this helps ...
We just got done doing this. We used an iPAAS platform called Jitterbit (similar to Dell Boomi). It can connect to mySql and to NetSuite and you can do transformations in the tool. I have been really impressed with the platform overall so far
There are different approaches, I like the following to process a batch job:
To import data to Netsuite:
Export CSV from old system and place it in Netsuite's a File Cabinet folder (Use a RESTlet or Webservices for this).
Run a scheduled script to load the files in the folder and update the records.
Don't forget to handle errors. Ways to handle errors: send email, create custom record, log to file or write to record
Once the file has been processed move the file to another folder or delete it.
To export data out of Netsuite:
Gather data and export to a CSV (You can use a saved search or similar)
Place CSV in File Cabinet folder.
From external server call webservices or RESTlet to grab new CSV files in the folder.
Process file.
Handle errors.
Call webservices or RESTlet to move CSV File or Delete.
You can also use Pentaho Data Integration, its free and the learning curve is not that difficult. I took this course and I was able to play around with the tool within a couple of hours.
