Toolkits
A toolkit is a set of SPL artifacts, which are organized into a package. Toolkits make SPL or native functions and primitive or composite operators reusable across different applications.

- APIs
  Application programming interfaces (APIs) provide functions that simplify applications development.
- Job configuration overlays
  You can specify or change configuration parameters when you use the submitjob or updateoperators operations. The settings control submission constraints, host constraints and locations, and operator status. Parameters are captured and updated in the configuration JSON file. When you change the values in the job configuration overlay file, the changes override any previously set values.
- Commands
  Teracloud® Streams provides a number of commands you use to perform tasks.
- Metrics
  Teracloud® Streams provides metrics to help evaluate the health of Teracloud Streams services, to aid in diagnosing performance issues, and to analyze throughput of requests. You can use the streamtool checkinstancemetrics, streamtool checkdomainmetrics, streamtool getdomainmetrics, and streamtool checkresourcemetrics commands to view the metrics data.
- Operator model
  An operator model is an XML document that describes the basic properties of a primitive operator.
- Streams Processing Language (SPL)
  Streams Processing Language (SPL) is a distributed data flow composition language that is used in Teracloud® Streams. SPL has primitive types, program structures, and definitions that are tailored for streaming data.
- SPL Compiler
  The SPL compiler is an incremental compiler that generates artifacts needed to run your stream application. These artifacts include, for example, C++ code for several entities in your SPL program and an application bundle file.
- Toolkits
  A toolkit is a set of SPL artifacts, which are organized into a package. Toolkits make SPL or native functions and primitive or composite operators reusable across different applications.
  - Specialized toolkit requirements and restrictions
    Several of the specialized toolkits require RPMs that are not required by the Teracloud® Streams product. There are also toolkit restrictions on some platforms.
  - Toolkits
- SPLDOC markup
  You can use SPLDOC markup in the descriptions associated with the SPL artifacts in a toolkit. The spl-make-doc command generates HTML documentation from the marked up artifacts.

Migrating customized code

New toolkit versions may provides new features. It requires upgrades in some parts of the custom code because the interfaces to custom composites changed. The procedures use the Linux shell command in the examples.

Replacing of the deprecated *.daystokeep parameters: The new toolkit version doesn't support the *.daystokeep configuration parameters.

Upgrading of variant B and C with new custom-specific types: The new deduplication features and the improved handling of the custom context requires an upgrade of custom-specific types.

Replacing the duplicate attribute by the new bloomFilterResult attribute: The deduplication specifies new bloomFilterResult output attribute that provides the information about duplicate detection state.

Upgrading the new outdatedRecords statistics attribute: The new partitioned deduplication feature provides new statistics information.

Upgrading the LookupCache operator with new parameter: The LookupCache operator has a new applControlDir parameter.
