/*
Here's a brief explanation of the code and how it meets your goals:
Performance: To optimize performance, we set the fetch size to 1000 and use a batch size of 1000 for committing transactions. This reduces the number of database round-trips needed to retrieve data from the database and write it to disk. We also use an executor service to process multiple rows in parallel, which further speeds up the process.
Scalability: The code is designed to handle up to a petabyte of data by processing rows in batches and committing transactions every BATCH_SIZE rows. This reduces the memory footprint of the code and allows it to scale up to large amounts of data.
Parallelism: We use an executor service to process multiple rows in parallel, which further speeds up the process. The THREAD_POOL_SIZE variable determines how many threads are used for processing.
Memory usage: The code uses minimal memory by processing rows in batches and committing transactions every BATCH_SIZE rows. This ensures that the code doesn't hold on to too many rows in memory at once.
Petabyte-scale data: The code is designed to handle up to a petabyte of data by processing rows in batches and committing transactions every BATCH_SIZE rows. This allows the code to scale up to large amounts of data without running out of memory.
Out of memory errors: To prevent out of memory errors, we set the Xms (initial heap size) to 2GB and Xmx (maximum heap size) to 8GB. These values can be adjusted based
