Class GlobalChannelTrafficShapingHandler

All Implemented Interfaces:
ChannelDownstreamHandler, ChannelHandler, ChannelUpstreamHandler, ExternalResourceReleasable

@Sharable public class GlobalChannelTrafficShapingHandler extends AbstractTrafficShapingHandler
This implementation of the AbstractTrafficShapingHandler is for global and per channel traffic shaping, that is to say a global limitation of the bandwidth, whatever the number of opened channels and a per channel limitation of the bandwidth.

This version shall not be in the same pipeline than other TrafficShapingHandler.

The general use should be as follow:
  • Create your unique GlobalChannelTrafficShapingHandler like:

    GlobalChannelTrafficShapingHandler myHandler = new GlobalChannelTrafficShapingHandler(executor);

    The executor could be the underlying IO worker pool
    pipeline.addLast(myHandler);

    Note that this handler has a Pipeline Coverage of "all" which means only one such handler must be created and shared among all channels as the counter must be shared among all channels.

    Other arguments can be passed like write or read limitation (in bytes/s where 0 means no limitation) or the check interval (in millisecond) that represents the delay between two computations of the bandwidth and so the call back of the doAccounting method (0 means no accounting at all).
    Note that as this is a fusion of both Global and Channel Traffic Shaping, limits are in 2 sets, respectively Global and Channel.

    A value of 0 means no accounting for checkInterval. If you need traffic shaping but no such accounting, it is recommended to set a positive value, even if it is high since the precision of the Traffic Shaping depends on the period where the traffic is computed. The highest the interval, the less precise the traffic shaping will be. It is suggested as higher value something close to 5 or 10 minutes.

    maxTimeToWait, by default set to 15s, allows to specify an upper bound of time shaping.

  • In your handler, you should consider to use the channel.isWritable() and channelWritabilityChanged(ctx) to handle writability, or through future.addListener(new GenericFutureListener()) on the future returned by ctx.write().
  • You shall also consider to have object size in read or write operations relatively adapted to the bandwidth you required: for instance having 10 MB objects for 10KB/s will lead to burst effect, while having 100 KB objects for 1 MB/s should be smoothly handle by this TrafficShaping handler.

  • Some configuration methods will be taken as best effort, meaning that all already scheduled traffics will not be changed, but only applied to new traffics.
    So the expected usage of those methods are to be used not too often, accordingly to the traffic shaping configuration.

Be sure to call release() once this handler is not needed anymore to release all internal resources. This will not shutdown the Timer as it may be shared, so you need to do this by your own.
