• Caltech
• Clustrix
• MapR
• Founding member of Apache Drill
3. MapR Technologies
• The open enterprise-grade distribution for Hadoop
– Easy, dependable and fast
– Open source with standards-based extensions
• MapR is deployed at 1000’s of companies
– From small Internet startups to the world’s largest enterprises
• MapR customers analyze massive amounts of data:
– Hundreds of billions of events daily
– 90% of the world’s Internet population monthly
– $1 trillion in retail purchases annually
• MapR has partnered with Google to provide Hadoop on Google
Compute Engine

Introducing Apache Drill…
7. Google Dremel
• Interactive analysis of large-scale datasets
– Trillion records at interactive speeds
– Complementary to MapReduce
– Used by thousands of Google employees
– Paper published at VLDB 2010
• Authors: Sergey Melnik, Andrey Gubarev, Jing Jing Long, Geoffrey Romer, Shiva
Shivakumar, Matt Tolton, Theo Vassilakis
• Model
– Nested data model with schema
• Most data at Google is stored/transferred in Protocol Buffers
• Normalization (to relational) is prohibitive
– SQL-like query language with nested data support
• Implementation
– Column-based storage and processing
– In-situ data access (GFS and Bigtable)
– Tree architecture as in Web search (and databases)
8. Google BigQuery
• Hosted Dremel (Dremel as a Service)
• CLI (bq) and Web UI
• Import data from Google Cloud Storage or local files
– Files must be in CSV format
• Nested data not supported [yet] except built-in datasets
– Schema definition required
10. Architecture
• Only the execution engine knows the physical attributes of the cluster
– # nodes, hardware, file locations, …
• Public interfaces enable extensibility
– Developers can build parsers for new query languages
– Developers can provide an execution plan directly
• Each level of the plan has a human readable representation
– Facilitates debugging and unit testing
12. Execution Engine Layers
• Drill execution engine has two layers
– Operator layer is serialization-aware
• Processes individual records
– Execution layer is not serialization-aware
• Processes batches of records (blobs)
• Responsible for communication, dependencies and fault tolerance
14. Nested Query Languages
• DrQL
– SQL-like query language for nested data
– Compatible with Google BigQuery/Dremel
• BigQuery applications should work with Drill
– Designed to support efficient column-based processing
• No record assembly during query processing
• Mongo Query Language
– {$query: {x: 3, y: "abc"}, $orderby: {x: 1}}
• Other languages/programming models can plug in
15. Nested Data Model
• The data model in Dremel is Protocol Buffers
– Nested
– Schema
• Apache Drill is designed to support multiple data models
– Schema: Protocol Buffers, Apache Avro, …
– Schema-less: JSON, BSON, …
• Flat records are supported as a special case of nested data
– CSV, TSV, …
Avro IDL JSON
enum Gender { {
MALE, FEMALE "name": "Srivas",
} "gender": "Male",
"followers": 100
record User { }
string name; {
Gender gender; "name": "Raina",
long followers; "gender": "Female",
} "followers": 200,
"zip": "94305"
}
16. DrQL Example
SELECT DocId AS Id,
COUNT(Name.Language.Code) WITHIN Name AS
Cnt,
Name.Url + ',' + Name.Language.Code AS
Str
FROM t
WHERE REGEXP(Name.Url, '^http')
AND DocId < 20;
* Example from the Dremel paper
17. Query Components
• Query components:
– SELECT
– FROM
– WHERE
– GROUP BY
– HAVING
– (JOIN)
• Key logical operators:
– Scan
– Filter
– Aggregate
– (Join)
18. Extensibility
• Nested query languages
– Pluggable model
– DrQL
– Mongo Query Language
– Cascading
• Distributed execution engine
– Extensible model (eg, Dryad)
– Low-latency
– Fault tolerant
• Nested data formats
– Pluggable model
– Column-based (ColumnIO/Dremel, Trevni, RCFile) and row-based (RecordIO, Avro, JSON, CSV)
– Schema (Protocol Buffers, Avro, CSV) and schema-less (JSON, BSON)
• Scalable data sources
– Pluggable model
– Hadoop
– HBase
19. Scan Operators
• Drill supports multiple data formats by having per-format scan operators
• Queries involving multiple data formats/sources are supported
• Fields and predicates can be pushed down into the scan operator
• Scan operators may have adaptive side-effects (database cracking)
• Produce ColumnIO from RecordIO
• Google PowerDrill stores materialized expressions with the data
Scan with schema Scan without schema
Operator Protocol Buffers JSON-like (MessagePack)
output
Supported ColumnIO (column-based protobuf/Dremel) JSON
data formats RecordIO (row-based protobuf) HBase
CSV
SELECT … ColumnIO(proto URI, data URI) Json(data URI)
FROM … RecordIO(proto URI, data URI) HBase(table name)
20. Design Principles
Flexible Easy
• Pluggable query languages • Unzip and run
• Extensible execution engine • Zero configuration
• Pluggable data formats • Reverse DNS not needed
• Column-based and row-based • IP addresses can change
• Schema and schema-less • Clear and concise log messages
• Pluggable data sources
Dependable Fast
• No SPOF • C/C++ core with Java support
• Instant recovery from crashes • Google C++ style guide
• Min latency and max throughput
(limited only by hardware)
21. Hadoop Integration
• Hadoop data sources
– Hadoop FileSystem API (HDFS/MapR-FS)
– HBase
• Hadoop data formats
– Apache Avro
– RCFile
• MapReduce-based tools to create column-based formats
• Table registry in HCatalog
• Run long-running services in YARN

Editor's Notes
Drill Remove schema requirementIn-situ for real since we’ll support multiple formatsNote: MR needed for big joins so to speak
DrillWill support nestedNo schema required
Load data into Drill (optional)Could just use as is in “row” formatMultiple query languagesPluggability very important
Likely to support theseCould add HiveQL and more as well. Could even be clever and support HiveQL to MR or Drill based upon queryPig as wellPluggabilityData formatQuery languageSomething 6-9 months alpha qualityCommunity driven, I can’t speak for projectMapRFS gives better chunk size controlNFS support may make small test drivers easierUnified namespace will allow multi-cluster accessMight even have drill component that autoformats dataRead only model
Protocol buffers are conceptual data modelWill support multiple data modelsWill have to define a way to explain data format (filtering, fields, etc)Schema-less will have perf penaltyHbase will be one format
Example query that Drill should supportNeed to talk more here about what Dremel does
Note: we have an already partially built execution engine
