AWS IoT Analytics

2019/03/25 - AWS IoT Analytics - 3 updated api methods

Changes  This change allows you to specify the number of versions of IoT Analytics data set content to be retained. Previously, the number of versions was managed implicitly via the setting of the data set's retention period.

{'versioningConfiguration': {'maxVersions': 'integer', 'unlimited': 'boolean'}}

Creates a data set. A data set stores data retrieved from a data store by applying a "queryAction" (a SQL query) or a "containerAction" (executing a containerized application). This operation creates the skeleton of a data set. The data set can be populated manually by calling "CreateDatasetContent" or automatically according to a "trigger" you specify.

type datasetName

string

param datasetName

[REQUIRED]

The name of the data set.

type actions

list

param actions

[REQUIRED]

A list of actions that create the data set contents.

  • (dict) --

    A "DatasetAction" object that specifies how data set contents are automatically created.

    • actionName (string) --

      The name of the data set action by which data set contents are automatically created.

    • queryAction (dict) --

      An "SqlQueryDatasetAction" object that uses an SQL query to automatically create data set contents.

      • sqlQuery (string) -- [REQUIRED]

        A SQL query string.

      • filters (list) --

        Pre-filters applied to message data.

        • (dict) --

          Information which is used to filter message data, to segregate it according to the time frame in which it arrives.

          • deltaTime (dict) --

            Used to limit data to that which has arrived since the last execution of the action.

            • offsetSeconds (integer) -- [REQUIRED]

              The number of seconds of estimated "in flight" lag time of message data. When you create data set contents using message data from a specified time frame, some message data may still be "in flight" when processing begins, and so will not arrive in time to be processed. Use this field to make allowances for the "in flight" time of your message data, so that data not processed from a previous time frame will be included with the next time frame. Without this, missed message data would be excluded from processing during the next time frame as well, because its timestamp places it within the previous time frame.

            • timeExpression (string) -- [REQUIRED]

              An expression by which the time of the message data may be determined. This may be the name of a timestamp field, or a SQL expression which is used to derive the time the message data was generated.

    • containerAction (dict) --

      Information which allows the system to run a containerized application in order to create the data set contents. The application must be in a Docker container along with any needed support libraries.

      • image (string) -- [REQUIRED]

        The ARN of the Docker container stored in your account. The Docker container contains an application and needed support libraries and is used to generate data set contents.

      • executionRoleArn (string) -- [REQUIRED]

        The ARN of the role which gives permission to the system to access needed resources in order to run the "containerAction". This includes, at minimum, permission to retrieve the data set contents which are the input to the containerized application.

      • resourceConfiguration (dict) -- [REQUIRED]

        Configuration of the resource which executes the "containerAction".

        • computeType (string) -- [REQUIRED]

          The type of the compute resource used to execute the "containerAction". Possible values are: ACU_1 (vCPU=4, memory=16GiB) or ACU_2 (vCPU=8, memory=32GiB).

        • volumeSizeInGB (integer) -- [REQUIRED]

          The size (in GB) of the persistent storage available to the resource instance used to execute the "containerAction" (min: 1, max: 50).

      • variables (list) --

        The values of variables used within the context of the execution of the containerized application (basically, parameters passed to the application). Each variable must have a name and a value given by one of "stringValue", "datasetContentVersionValue", or "outputFileUriValue".

        • (dict) --

          An instance of a variable to be passed to the "containerAction" execution. Each variable must have a name and a value given by one of "stringValue", "datasetContentVersionValue", or "outputFileUriValue".

            The value of the variable as a structure that specifies a data set content version.

            • datasetName (string) -- [REQUIRED]

              The name of the data set whose latest contents are used as input to the notebook or application.

          • outputFileUriValue (dict) --

            The value of the variable as a structure that specifies an output file URI.

            • fileName (string) -- [REQUIRED]

              The URI of the location where data set contents are stored, usually the URI of a file in an S3 bucket.

type datasetName

string

param datasetName

[REQUIRED]

The name of the data set to update.

type actions

list

param actions

[REQUIRED]

A list of "DatasetAction" objects.

  • (dict) --

    A "DatasetAction" object that specifies how data set contents are automatically created.

    • actionName (string) --

      The name of the data set action by which data set contents are automatically created.

    • queryAction (dict) --

      An "SqlQueryDatasetAction" object that uses an SQL query to automatically create data set contents.

      • sqlQuery (string) -- [REQUIRED]

        A SQL query string.

      • filters (list) --

        Pre-filters applied to message data.

        • (dict) --

          Information which is used to filter message data, to segregate it according to the time frame in which it arrives.

          • deltaTime (dict) --

            Used to limit data to that which has arrived since the last execution of the action.

            • offsetSeconds (integer) -- [REQUIRED]

              The number of seconds of estimated "in flight" lag time of message data. When you create data set contents using message data from a specified time frame, some message data may still be "in flight" when processing begins, and so will not arrive in time to be processed. Use this field to make allowances for the "in flight" time of your message data, so that data not processed from a previous time frame will be included with the next time frame. Without this, missed message data would be excluded from processing during the next time frame as well, because its timestamp places it within the previous time frame.

            • timeExpression (string) -- [REQUIRED]

              An expression by which the time of the message data may be determined. This may be the name of a timestamp field, or a SQL expression which is used to derive the time the message data was generated.

    • containerAction (dict) --

      Information which allows the system to run a containerized application in order to create the data set contents. The application must be in a Docker container along with any needed support libraries.

      • image (string) -- [REQUIRED]

        The ARN of the Docker container stored in your account. The Docker container contains an application and needed support libraries and is used to generate data set contents.

      • executionRoleArn (string) -- [REQUIRED]

        The ARN of the role which gives permission to the system to access needed resources in order to run the "containerAction". This includes, at minimum, permission to retrieve the data set contents which are the input to the containerized application.

      • resourceConfiguration (dict) -- [REQUIRED]

        Configuration of the resource which executes the "containerAction".

        • computeType (string) -- [REQUIRED]

          The type of the compute resource used to execute the "containerAction". Possible values are: ACU_1 (vCPU=4, memory=16GiB) or ACU_2 (vCPU=8, memory=32GiB).

        • volumeSizeInGB (integer) -- [REQUIRED]

          The size (in GB) of the persistent storage available to the resource instance used to execute the "containerAction" (min: 1, max: 50).

      • variables (list) --

        The values of variables used within the context of the execution of the containerized application (basically, parameters passed to the application). Each variable must have a name and a value given by one of "stringValue", "datasetContentVersionValue", or "outputFileUriValue".

        • (dict) --

          An instance of a variable to be passed to the "containerAction" execution. Each variable must have a name and a value given by one of "stringValue", "datasetContentVersionValue", or "outputFileUriValue".

          • name (string) -- [REQUIRED]

            The name of the variable.

          • stringValue (string) --

            The value of the variable as a string.

          • doubleValue (float) --

            The value of the variable as a double (numeric).

          • datasetContentVersionValue (dict) --

            The value of the variable as a structure that specifies a data set content version.

            • datasetName (string) -- [REQUIRED]

              The name of the data set whose latest contents are used as input to the notebook or application.

          • outputFileUriValue (dict) --

            The value of the variable as a structure that specifies an output file URI.

            • fileName (string) -- [REQUIRED]

              The URI of the location where data set contents are stored, usually the URI of a file in an S3 bucket.
