Aerospike: How to handle max number of sets 1023 limitation per namespace

I am using Aerospike 3.4. community edition. It is known that aerospike supports only 1023 sets per namespace. In my situation, I may cross that limit. One way I could handle it may be include the set name with the PK and have everything in one set. In this case how do I iterate through the records in particular set. There may be other challenges in this approach. Can anyone help with this 1023 sets limitation?

Thanks in Advance.

Solution

  • In your case, you could use one set 'users' with the PK as client_id:email, and use a secondary index to optimize the requests to a specific client. This way you won't be restricted to sets limitation, and still have great performance on complex iterations.
