Class Unique

All Implemented Interfaces:
  FlowElement, Serializable

    public class Unique

extends SubAssembly

Class Unique `SubAssembly` is used to filter all duplicates out of a tuple stream.

Typically finding unique value in a tuple stream relies on a `GroupBy` and a `FirstNBuffer` `Buffer` operation.

If the `include` value is set to `Unique.Include.NO_NULLS`, any tuple consisting of only `null` values will be removed from the stream.

This SubAssembly uses the `Unique.FilterPartialDuplicates` `Filter` to remove as many observed duplicates before the GroupBy operator to reduce IO over the network.

This strategy is similar to using `combiners`, except no sorting or serialization is invoked and results in a much simpler mechanism.

The `threshold` value tells the underlying FilterPartialDuplicates how many values to cache for duplicate comparison before dropping values from the LRU cache.
