How to find resource intensive and time consuming queries in WX2? - kognitio-wx2

Is there a way to find the resource intensive and time consuming queries in WX2?
I tried to check SYS.IPE_COMMAND and SYS.IPE_TRANSACTION tables but of no help.

The best way to identify such queries when they are still running is to connect as SYS with Kognitio Console and use Tools | Identify Problem Queries. This runs a number of queries against Kognitio virtual tables to understand how long current queries have been running, how much RAM they are using, etc. The most intensive queries are at the top of the list, ranked by the final column, "Relative Severity".
For queries which ran in the past, you can look in IPE_COMMAND to see duration but only for non-SELECT queries - this is because SELECT queries default to only logging the DECLARE CURSOR statement, which basically just measures compile time rather than run time. To see details for SELECT queries you should join to IPE_TRANSACTION to find the start and end time for the transaction.
For non-SELECT queries, IPE_COMMAND contains a breakdown of the time taken in a number of columns (all times in ms):
SM_TIME shows the compile time
TM_TIME shows the interpreter time
QUEUE_TIME shows the time the query was queued
TOTAL_TIME aggregates the above information
If it is for historic view image commands as mentioned in the comments, you can query
... SYS.IPE_COMMAND WHERE COMMAND IMATCHING 'create view image' AND TOTAL_TIME > 300000"
If it is for currently running commands you can look in SYS.IPE_CURTRANS and join to IPE_TRANSACTION to find the start time of the transaction (assuming your CVI runs in its own transaction - if not, you will need to look in IPE_COMMAND to find when the last statement in this TNO completed and use that as the start time)

Redshift: experiencing slow query performance between 2 segments

We’re experiencing slow query performance on AWS Redshift. Frequently we see that queries can take ±12 seconds to run, but only very little time (<500ms) is spent actually executing the query (according to the AWS Redshift console for an individual query).
Querying from svl_compile we can confirm that the query compilation plan is already compiled.
In svl_query_report we see a long time delay between the start times of 2 segments accounting for the majority of the run time, although the segments themselves all execute very quickly (milliseconds)
There are a number of things that could be going on but I suspect network distribution is involved. Check STL_DIST.
Another possibility is that Redshift broke the query up and a subquery is running during that window. This can happen with very complex queries. Review the plan and see if there are any references to computer generated table names (I think they begin with't' but this is just from memory).
Spilling to disk could be happening but this seems unlikely given what you have said so far. Also queuing delays doesn't seem like a match. Both are possible but not likely.
If you post more info about how the query is running things will narrow down. Actual execution report, explain plan, and/or logging table info would help hone in on what is happening during this time window.

how can i select the active processes on specific activity in camunda

... or more specific i want to know
for each process
for each process step
how many processes are on this step
at the moment and more nice for more than x minutes
The REST interface https://docs.camunda.org/manual/7.5/reference/rest/execution/get-query-count/ gives me the count only for a specific step, not for all. And for processes with many step i dont want to query (feeled) thousand times to get the information.
In the database i tried this, but i gives my redundant not specific active on this step count. But i dont need to rework my queries when something is changing.
select job.proc_def_key_, job.act_id_, count(ex.id_)
from camunda.act_ru_jobdef job, camunda.act_ru_execution ex
where job.proc_def_id_ = ex.proc_def_id_
and ex.business_key_ is not null
group by job.proc_def_key_, job.act_id_
order by job.proc_def_key_, job.act_id_

How to Decrease Query Compile Time in Redshift

I have seen that the first time query execution taking longer time to execute but second execution takes less time, seems like query compile time is taking longer time at first, can we do anything here which will increase the performance of compile time ?
Scenario:
enable_result_cache_for_session is off
We have SLA defined to execute specific query is 15 seconds but when run for the first time it is taking 33 seconds to compile and run the query that time SLA is miss but subsequent run took 10 seconds which is SLA hit.
Q: How do I tune this part ? How do I make sure this does not happens ?
Do we have any database configuration parameter for the same?
The title of the question says compile time but I understand that you are interested in improving the execution time, right?
For sure the John Rotenstein comment makes total sense, to improve the Redshift execution query time you need to understand the RS architecture and how to distribute your data in the best way you can to improve the queries time.
You will need to understand the DISTKEY and SORTKEY

UPDATE 1:
In order you tune query and know how/when use DISTKEY and SORTKEY, we can start using the EXPLAIN command in the query you run and based on that act more precisely.

First-run of queries are extremely slow

Our Redshift queries are extremely slow during their first execution. Subsequent executions are much faster (e.g., 45 seconds -> 2 seconds). After investigating this problem, the query compilation appears to be the culprit. This is a known issue and is even referenced on the AWS Query Planning And Execution Workflow and Factors Affecting Query Performance pages. Amazon itself is quite tight lipped about how the query cache works (tl;dr it's a magic black box that you shouldn't worry about).
One of the things that we tried was increasing the number of nodes we had, however we didn't expect it to solve anything seeing as how query compilation is a single-node operation anyway. It did not solve anything but it was a fun diversion for a bit.
As noted, this is a known issue, however, anywhere it is discussed online, the only takeaway is either "this is just something you have to live with using Redshift" or "here's a super kludgy workaround that only works part of the time because we don't know how the query cache works".
Is there anything we can do to speed up the compilation process or otherwise deal with this? So far about the best solution that's been found is "pre-run every query you might expect to run in a given day on a schedule" which is....not great, especially given how little we know about how the query cache works.
there are 3 things to consider
The first run of any query causes the query to be "compiled" by
redshift . this can take 2-20 seconds depending on how big it is.
subsequent executions of the same query use the same compiled code,
even if the where clause parameters change there is no re-compile.
Data is measured as marked as "hot" when a query has been run
against it, and is cached in redshift memory. you cannot (reliably) manually
clear this in any way EXCEPT a restart of the cluster.
Redshift will "results cache", depending on your redshift parameters
(enabled by default) redshift will quickly return the same result
for the exact same query, if the underlying data has not changed. if
your query includes current_timestamp or similar, then this will
stop if from caching. This can be turned off with SET enable_result_cache_for_session TO OFF;.
Considering your issue, you may need to run some example queries to pre compile or redesign your queries ( i guess you have some dynamic query building going on that changes the shape of the query a lot).
In my experience, more nodes will increase the compile time. this process happens on the master node not the data nodes, and is made more complex by having more data nodes to consider.
The query is probably not actually running a second time -- rather, Redshift is just returning the same result for the same query.
This can be tested by turning off the cache. Run this command:
SET enable_result_cache_for_session TO OFF;
Then, run the query twice. It should take the same time for each execution.
The result cache is great for repeated queries. Rather than being disappointed that the first execution is 'slow', be happy that subsequent cached queries are 'fast'!

Airflow: how to get response from Big query output for data availability and based on result kick off task/subdags

Requirement is kick off dag based on data availability from upstream/dependent tables
While condition check data availability (in the tables at Big query for n number of iteration) to check data available or not. If data available then kick off subdag/task else continue in loop.
It would be great to see an clear example how to use BigQueryOperator or `BigQueryValueCheckOperator' and then execute big query something like this
{Code}
SELECT
1
FROM
WHERE
datetime BETWEEN TIMESTAMP(CURRENT_DATE())
AND TIMESTAMP(DATE_ADD(CURRENT_DATE(),1,'day'))
LIMIT
1
{Code}
If query output is 1 (that means data available for today's load) then kick off dag else continue in loop as shown in attached diagram link.
Does anyone had setup such design in Airflow dag.
You may check the BaseSensorOperator and BigQueryTableSensor to implement your own Sensor for it. https://airflow.incubator.apache.org/_modules/airflow/operators/sensors.html
Sensor operators keep executing at a time interval and succeed when a
criteria is met and fail if and when they time out.
BigQueryTableSensor just checks whether table exists or not but did check the data in the table. It might be something like this:
task1>>YourSensor>>task2
