from Romain Rigaux and Erick Tryzelaar at Spark Summit EU 2015

1. BUILDING A REST JOB SERVER
FOR INTERACTIVE SPARK
AS A SERVICE
Romain Rigaux - Cloudera
Erick Tryzelaar - Cloudera

2. WHY?

5. NOTEBOOKS
EASY ACCESS FROM ANYWHERE
SHARE SPARK CONTEXTS AND RDDs
BUILD APPS
SPARK MAGIC
…
WHY SPARK
AS A SERVICE?

6. MARRIED WITH FULL HADOOP ECOSYSTEM
WHY SPARK
IN HUE?

7. HISTORY
V1: OOZIE
• It works
• Code snippet
THE GOOD
• Submit through Oozie
• Shell ac:on
• Very Slow
• Batch
THE BAD
workflow.xml
snippet.py
stdout

8. HISTORY
V2: SPARK IGNITER
• It works beAer
THE GOOD
• Compiler Jar
• Batch only, no shell
• No Python, R
• Security
• Single point of failure
THE BAD Compile
Implement
Upload
json output
Batch
Scala
jar
Ooyala

9. HISTORY
V3: NOTEBOOK
• Like spark-submit / spark shells
• Scala / Python / R shells
• Jar / Python batch Jobs
• Notebook UI
• YARN
THE GOOD
• Beta?
THE BAD

13. LIVY
SPARK SERVER
•REST Web server in Scala for Spark submissions
•Interac:ve Shell Sessions or Batch Jobs
•Backends: Scala, Java, Python, R
•No dependency on Hue
•Open Source: hAps://github.com/cloudera/
hue/tree/master/apps/spark/java
•Read about it: hAp://gethue.com/spark/

14. ARCHITECTURE
• Standard web service: wrapper around spark-submit / Spark shells
• YARN mode, Spark drivers run inside the cluster (supports crashes)
• No need to inherit any interface or compile code
• Extended to work with additional backends

39. INTERPRETERS
• Pipe stdin/stdout to a running shell
• Execute the code / send to Spark
workers
• Perform magic opera:ons
• One interpreter per language
• “Swappable” with other kernels
