Byzer-Lang

Byzer (former MLSQL) is a low-code, open-sourced and distributed programming language for data pipeline, analytics and AI in cloud native way.

Deisgn protocol: Everything is a table. Byzer is a SQL-like language, to simplify data pipeline, analytics and AI, combined with built-in algorithms and extensions.

We believe that everything is a table, a simple and powerful SQL-like language can significantly reduce human efforts of data development without switching different tools.

Byzer Architecture

Byzer Code Example

load hive.`raw.stripe_discounts` as discounts;
load hive.`raw.stripe_invoice_items` as invoice_items;

select
        invoice_items.*,
        case
            when discounts.discount_type = 'percent'
                then amount * (1.0 - discounts.discount_value::float / 100)
            else amount - discounts.discount_value
        end as discounted_amount

    from invoice_items

    left outer join discounts
        on invoice_items.customer_id = discounts.customer_id
        and invoice_items.invoice_date > discounts.discount_start
        and (invoice_items.invoice_date < discounts.discount_end
             or discounts.discount_end is null)
as joined;



select

        id,
        invoice_id,
        customer_id,
        coalesce(discounted_amount, amount) as discounted_amount,
        currency,
        description,
        created_at,
        deleted_at

    from joined
as final;



set allColumns = "all,wow";

!if ''' split(:allColumns,",")[0] == "all" ''';
   select * from final as final2;
!else;
   select id,invoice from final as final2;
!fi;

select * from final2 as output;

docker run -d \
-p 3306:3306 \
-p 9002:9002 \
-p 9003:9003 \
-e MYSQL_ROOT_HOST=% \
-e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD="${MYSQL_PASSWORD}" \
--name mlsql-sandbox-${SPARK_VERSION}-${MLSQL_VERSION} \
mlsql-sandbox:${SPARK_VERSION}-${MLSQL_VERSION}

Then you can visit http://127.0.0.1:9002 .
