Stream Processing • Data from a variety of sources (IoT, Kafka, files, social media etc.) • Unbounded stream data ᵒ Batch can be processed as stream (but a stream is not a batch) • (In-memory) Processing with temporal boundaries (windows) • Stateful operations: Aggregation, Rules, … -> Analytics • Results stored to a variety of sinks or destinations ᵒ Streaming application can also serve data with very low latency 2 Browser Web Server Kafka Input (logs) Decompress, Parse, Filter Dimensions Aggregate Kafka Logs Kafka

Apache Apex Features • In-memory stream processing platform ᵒ Developed since 2012, ASF TLP since 04/2016 • Unobtrusive Java API to express (custom) logic • Scale out, distributed, parallel • High throughput & low latency processing • Windowing (temporal boundary) • Reliability, fault tolerance, operability • Hadoop native • Compute locality, affinity • Dynamic updates, elasticity 3

Applications on Apex 4 • Distributed processing • Application logic broken into components called operators that run in a distributed fashion across your cluster • Natural programming model • Code as if you were writing normal Java logic • Maintain state in your application variables • Scalable • Operators can be scaled up or down at runtime according to the load and SLA • Fault tolerant • Automatically recover from node outages without having to reprocess from beginning • State is preserved, checkpointing, incremental recovery • Long running applications • Operational insight • See how each operator is performing and even record data

Native Hadoop Integration 7 • YARN is the resource manager • HDFS used for storing any persistent state

Application Development Model 8  A Stream is a sequence of data tuples  A typical Operator takes one or more input streams, performs computations & emits one or more output streams • Each Operator is YOUR custom business logic in java, or built-in operator from our open source library • Operator has many instances that run in parallel and each instance is single-threaded  Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) is made up of operators and streams Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) Output Stream Tupl e Tupl e er Operator er Operator er Operator er Operator er Operator er Operator

Streaming Windows 9  Application window  Sliding window and tumbling window  Checkpoint window  No artificial latency

Dynamic Partitioning 16 • Partitioning change while application is running ᵒ Change number of partitions at runtime based on stats ᵒ Determine initial number of partitions dynamically • Kafka operators scale according to number of kafka partitions ᵒ Supports re-distribution of state when number of partitions change ᵒ API for custom scaler or partitioner 2b 2c 3 2a 2d 1b 1a1a 2a 1b 2b 3 1a 2b 1b 2c 3b 2a 2d 3a Unifiers not shown

How tuples are partitioned 17 • Tuple hashcode and mask used to determine destination partition ᵒ Mask picks the last n bits of the hashcode of the tuple ᵒ hashcode method can be overridden • StreamCodec can be used to specify custom hashcode for tuples ᵒ Can also be used for specifying custom serialization tuple: { Name, 24204842, San Jose } Hashcode: 00101010001 0101 Mask (0x11) Partition 00 1 01 2 10 3 11 4

Fault Tolerance 18 • Operator state is checkpointed to persistent store ᵒ Automatically performed by engine, no additional coding needed ᵒ Asynchronous and distributed ᵒ In case of failure operators are restarted from checkpoint state • Automatic detection and recovery of failed containers ᵒ Heartbeat mechanism ᵒ YARN process status notification • Buffering to enable replay of data from recovered point ᵒ Fast, incremental recovery, spike handling • Application master state checkpointed ᵒ Snapshot of physical (and logical) plan ᵒ Execution layer change log

• In-memory PubSub • Stores results emitted by operator until committed • Handles backpressure / spillover to local disk • Ordering, idempotency Operator 1 Container 1 Buffer Server Node 1 Operator 2 Container 2 Node 2 Buffer Server 19

Processing Guarantees 21 At-least-once • On recovery data will be replayed from a previous checkpoint ᵒ No messages lost ᵒ Default, suitable for most applications • Can be used to ensure data is written once to store ᵒ Transactions with meta information, Rewinding output, Feedback from external entity, Idempotent operations At-most-once • On recovery the latest data is made available to operator ᵒ Useful in use cases where some data loss is acceptable and latest data is sufficient Exactly-once ᵒ At-least-once + idempotency + transactional mechanisms (operator logic) to achieve end-to-end exactly once behavior

End-to-End Exactly Once 22 • Becomes important when writing to external systems • Data should not be duplicated or lost in the external system even in case of application failures • Common external systems ᵒ Databases ᵒ Files ᵒ Message queues • Platform support for at least once is a must so that no data is lost • Data duplication must still be avoided when data is replayed from checkpoint ᵒ Operators implement the logic dependent on the external system ᵒ Platform provides checkpointing and repeatable windowing

Compute Locality 23 • By default operators are deployed in containers (processes) on different nodes across the Hadoop cluster • Locality options for streams ᵒ RACK_LOCAL: Data does not traverse network switches ᵒ NODE_LOCAL: Data transfer via loopback interface, frees up network bandwidth ᵒ CONTAINER_LOCAL: Data transfer via in memory queues between operators, does not require serialization ᵒ THREAD_LOCAL: Data passed through call stack, operators share thread • Host Locality ᵒ Operators can be deployed on specific hosts • New in 3.4.0: (Anti-)Affinity (APEXCORE-10) ᵒ Ability to express relative deployment without specifying a host
