Google cloud Dataflow & Apache Flink
- 1. GOOGLE CLOUD DATAFLOW & APACHE FLINK I V A N F E R N A N D E Z P E R E A
- 2. GOOGLE CLOUD DATAFLOW DEFINITION “A fully-managed cloud service and programming model for batch and streaming big data processing” • Main features – Fully Managed – Unified Programming Model – Integrated & Open Source
- 3. GOOGLE CLOUD DATAFLOW USE CASES • Both batch and streaming data processing • ETL (extract, transform, load) approach • Excels and high volume computation • High parallelism factor (“embarrassingly parallel”) • Cost effective
- 4. DATAFLOW PROGRAMMING MODEL • Designed to simplify the mechanics of large-scale data processing • It creates an optimized job to be executed as a unit by one of the Cloud Dataflow runner services • You can focus on the logical composition of your data processing job, rather than the physical orchestratrion of parallel processing
- 5. GOOGLE CLOUD DATAFLOW COMPONENTS • Two main components: – A set of SDK used to define data processing jobs: • Unified programming model. “One fits all” approach • Data programming model (pipelines, collection, transformation, sources and sinks) – A Google Cloud Platform managed service that ties together with the Google Cloud Platform, Google Compute Engine, Google Cloud Storage, Big Query, ….
- 6. DATAFLOW SDKS Each pipeline is an indepedent entity that reads some input data, transform it, and generates some output data. A pipeline represents a directed graph of data processing transformation Simple data representation. Specialized collections called Pcollection Pcollection can represent unlimited size dataset Pcollections are the inputs and the ouputs for each step in your pipeline Dataflow provides abstractions to manipulate data Transformation over data are known as Ptransform Transformations can be linear or not I/O APIs for a variety of data formats like text or Avro files, Big Query table, Google Pub/Sub, … Dataflow SDK for Java available on Github. https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/DataflowJavaSDK
- 7. PIPELINE DESIGN PRINCIPLES • Some question before building your Pipeline: – Where is your input data stored? Read transformations – What does your data look like? It defines your Pcollections – What do you want to do with your data? Core or pre-written transforms – What does your output data look like, and where should it go? Write transformations
- 8. PIPELINE SHAPES Linear Pipeline Branching Pipeline
- 9. PIPELINE EXAMPLE public static interface Options extends PipelineOptions { ... } public static void main(String[] args) { // Parse and validate command-line flags, // then create pipeline, passing it a user-defined Options object. Options options = PipelineOptionsFactory.fromArgs(args) .withValidation() .as(Options.class); Pipeline p = Pipeline.create(options); p.apply(TextIO.Read.from(input)) // SDK-provided PTransform for reading text data .apply(new CountWords()) // User-written subclass of PTransform for counting words .apply(TextIO.Write.to(output)); // SDK-provided PTransform for writing text data p.run(); }
- 10. PIPELINE COLLECTIONS: PCOLLECTIONS • PCollection represents a potentially large, immutable “bag” of same-type elements • A PCollection can be of any type and it will be encoded based on the Dataflow SDK Data encoding or on your own. • PCollection requirements – Immutable. Once created, you cannot add, remove or change individual objects. – Does not support random access – A PCollection belongs to one Pipeline (collections cannot be shared): • Bounded vs unbounded collections – It depends on your source dataset. – Bounded collections can be processed using batch jobs – Unbounded collections must be processed using streaming jobs (Windowing and Timestamps)
- 11. PIPELINE COLLECTIONS EXAMPLE • A collection created from individual lines of text // Create a Java Collection, in this case a List of Strings. static final List<String> LINES = Arrays.asList( "To be, or not to be: that is the question: ", "Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer ", "The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, ", "Or to take arms against a sea of troubles, "); PipelineOptions options = PipelineOptionsFactory.create(); Pipeline p = Pipeline.create(options); p.apply(Create.of(LINES)).setCoder(StringUtf8Coder.of()) // create the PCollection
- 12. PIPELINE COLLECTIONS TYPES • Bounded PCollections. It represents a fixed data set from data sources/sinks as: – TextIO – BigQueryIO – DataStoreIO – Custom data sources using the Custom Source/Sink API • Unbounded PCollections. It represents a continuously updating data set, or streaming data sources/sinks as: – PubsubIO – BigQueryIO (only as a sink) • Each element in a PCollection has an associated timestamp. NOTE: it doesn’t happen for all sources(e.g, TextIO) • Unbounded PCollections are processed as finite logical windows (Windowing). Windowing can also be applied to Bounded PCollections as a global window.
- 13. PCOLLECTIONS WINDOWING • Subdivide PCollection processing according to the timestamp. • Uses Triggers to determine when to close each finite window as unbounded data arrives. • Windowing functions – Fixed Time Windows – Sliding Time Windows. Two variables, windows size and period. – Per-Session Windows. It relates to when actions are perform (e.g, mouse interactions) – Single Global Window. By default window. – Other windowing function as Calendar-based are found in com.google.cloud.dataflow.sdk.transforms.windowing • Time Skew, Data Lag, and Late Data. As each element is marked with a Timestamp it can be known if data arrives with some lag.
- 14. PCOLLECTIONS WINDOWING II • Adding Timestamp PCollection<LogEntry> unstampedLogs = ...; PCollection<LogEntry> stampedLogs = unstampedLogs.apply(ParDo.of(new DoFn<LogEntry, LogEntry>() { public void processElement(ProcessContext c) { // Extract the timestamp from log entry we're currently processing. Instant logTimeStamp = extractTimeStampFromLogEntry(c.element()); // Use outputWithTimestamp to emit the log entry with timestamp attached. c.outputWithTimestamp(c.element(), logTimeStamp); } })); • Time Skew and Late Data PCollection<String> items = ...; PCollection<String> fixed_windowed_items = items.apply( Window.<String>into(FixedWindows.of(1, TimeUnit.MINUTES)) .withAllowedLateness(Duration.standardDays(2))); • Sliding window PCollection<String> items = ...; PCollection<String> sliding_windowed_items = items.apply( Window.<String>into(SlidingWindows.of(Duration.standardMinutes(60)).every(Duration.standardSeconds(30))));
- 16. PIPELINE TRANSFORMS: PTRANSFORMS • Represent a processing operation logic in a pipeline as a function object. • Processing operations – Mathematical computations on data – Converting data from one format to another – Grouping data together – Filtering data – Combining data elements into single values • PTransforms requirements – Serializable – Thread-compatible. Functions are going to be accessed by a single thread on a worker instance. – Idempotent functions are recommended: for any given input, a function provides the same ouput • How it works?. Call the apply method over the PCollection
- 17. PIPELINE TRANSFORMS TYPES • Core transformation – ParDo for generic parallel processing – GroupByKey for Key-Grouping Key/Value pairs – Combine for combining collections or grouped values – Flatten for merging collections • Composite transform – Built for multiple sub-transform in a modular way – Examples, Count and Top composite transform. • Pre-Written Transform – Proccessing logic as combining, splitting, manipulating and performing statistical analysis is already written. – They are found in the com.google.cloud.dataflow.sdk.transforms package • Root Transforms for Reading and Writing Data
- 18. PIPELINE TRANSFORM EXAMPLE • A composite transform that count words static class CountWords extends PTransform<PCollection<String>, PCollection<String>> { @Override public PCollection<String> apply(PCollection<String> lines) { PCollection<String> words = lines.apply( ParDo .named("ExtractWords") .of(new ExtractWordsFn())); PCollection<KV<String, Integer>> wordCounts = words.apply(Count.<String>perElement()); PCollection<String> results = wordCounts.apply( ParDo .named("FormatCounts") .of(new DoFn<KV<String, Integer>, String>() { @Override public void processElement() { output(element().getKey() + ": " + element().getValue()); } })); return results; } }
- 19. PIPELINE I/O • We need to read/write data from external sources like Google Cloud Storage or BigQuery table • Read/Write transforms are applied to sources to gather data • Read/Write data from Cloud Storage p.apply(AvroIO.Read.named("ReadFromAvro") .from("gs://my_bucket/path/to/records-*.avro") .withSchema(schema)); records.apply(AvroIO.Write.named("WriteToAvro") .to("gs://my_bucket/path/to/numbers") .withSchema(schema) .withSuffix(".avro")); Read and write Tranforms in the Dataflow SDKs Text files Big Query tables Avro files Pub/Sub Custom I/O sources and sink can be created.

- 27. APACHE FLINK “Apache Flink is an open source platform for distributed stream and batch data processing.” • Flink’s core is a streaming dataflow engine that provides data distribution, communication, and fault tolerance for distributed computations over data streams. • Flink includes several APIs for creating applications that use the Flink engine: – DataSet API for static data embedded in Java, Scala, and Python, – DataStream API for unbounded streams embedded in Java and Scala, and – Table API with a SQL-like expression language embedded in Java and Scala. • Flink also bundles libraries for domain-specific use cases: – Machine Learning library, and – Gelly, a graph processing API and library.
- 28. APACHE FLINK: BACKGROUND • 2010: "Stratosphere: Information Management on the Cloud" (funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG)) was started as a collaboration of Technical University Berlin, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, and Hasso-Plattner-InstitutPotsdam. • March 2014: Flink is a Stratosphere fork and it became an Apache Incubator. • December 2014: Flink was accepted as an Apache top-level project
- 30. APACHE FLINK FEATURES • Streaming first (Kappa approach) – High Performance & Low latency with little configuration – Flows (events) vs batches – Exactly-once Semantics for Stateful Computations – Continuos Streaming Model with Flow Control and long live operators (no need to run new tasks as in Spark, ‘similar’ to Storm) – Fault-tolerance via Lightweight Distributed Snapshots • One runtime for Streaming and Batch Processing – Batch processing runs as special case of streaming – Own memory management (Spark Tungsten project goal) – Iterations and Delta iterations – Program optimizer • APIs and Libraries – Batch Processing Applications (DataSet API) – Streaming Applications (DataStream API) – Library Ecosystem: Machine Learning, Graph Analytics and Relational Data Processing.
- 31. APACHE FLINK FEATURES • DatasSet: abstract representation of a finite immutable collection of data of the same type that may contain duplicates. • DataStream: a possibly unbounded immutable collection of data items of a the same type • Transformation: Data transformations transform one or more DataSets/DataStreams int a new DataSet/DataStream – Common: Map, FlatMap, MapPartition, Filter, Reduce, union – DataSets: aggregate, join, cogroup – DataStreams: window* transformations (Window, Window Reduce, …)
- 32. APACHE FLINK DATA SOURCES AND SINKS • Data Sources – File-based • readTextFile(path), readTextFileWithValue(path), readFile(path), … – Socket-based • socketTextStream (streaming) – Collection-based • fromCollection(Seq), fromCollection(iterator), fromElements(elements: _*) – Custom. • addSource from Kafka, … • Data Sinks (similar to Spark actions): – writeAsText() – writeAsCsv() – Print() / printToErr() – Write() – writeToSocket – addSink like Kafka
- 34. APACHE FLINK PROCESS MODEL • Processes – JobManager: coordinator of the Flink system – TaskManagers: workers that execute parts of the parallel programs.
- 35. APACHE FLINK EXECUTION MODEL • As a software stack, Flink is a layered system. The different layers of the stack build on top of each other and raise the abstraction level of the program representations they accept: – The runtime layer receives a program in the form of a JobGraph. A JobGraph is a generic parallel data flow with arbitrary tasks that consume and produce data streams. – Both the DataStream API and the DataSet API generate JobGraphs through separate compilation processes. The DataSet API uses an optimizer to determine the optimal plan for the program, while the DataStream API uses a stream builder. – The JobGraph is lazy executed according to a variety of deployment options available in Flink (e.g., local, remote, YARN, etc)
- 36. THE 8 REQUIREMENTS OF REAL-TIME STREAM PROCESSING • Coined by Michael Stonebraker and others in http://cs.brown.edu/~ugur/8rulesSigRec.pdf – Pipelining: Flink is built upon pipelining – Replay: Flink acknowledges batches of records – Operator state: flows pass by different operators – State backup: Flink operators can keep state – High-level language(s): Java, Scala, Python (beta) – Integration with static sources – High availability
- 37. FLINK STREAMING NOTES • Hybrid runtime architecture – Intermediate results are a handle to the data produced by an operator. – Coordinate the “handshake” between data producer and the consumer. • Current DataStream API has support for flexible windows • Apache SAMOA on Flink for Machine Learning on streams • Google Dataflow (stream functionality upcoming) • Table API (window definition upcoming)
- 38. FLINK STREAMING NOTES II • Flink supports different streaming windowing. – Instant event-at-a-time – Arrival time windows – Event time windows K. Tzoumas & S.
