you will have to solve them again!
• Leverage discrete task based compute model for elasticity, scalability
and fault tolerance
• Leverage several man years of work in Hadoop Map-Reduce data
shuffling operations
• Leverage proven resource sharing and multi-tenancy model for Hadoop
and YARN
• Leverage built-in security mechanisms in Hadoop for privacy and
isolation

Look to the Future with an eye on the Past

Tez – Problems that it addresses
• Expressing the computation
• Direct and elegant representation of the data processing flow
• Interfacing with application code and new technologies
• Performance
• Late Binding : Make decisions as late as possible using real data from at
runtime
• Leverage the resources of the cluster efficiently
• Just work out of the box!
• Customizable engine to let applications tailor the job to meet their
specific requirements
• Operation simplicity
• Painless to operate, experiment and upgrade
Page 7

Tez – Simplifying Operations
• No deployments to do. No side effects. Easy and safe to try it out!
• Tez is a completely client side application.
• Simply upload to any accessible FileSystem and change local Tez
configuration to point to that.
• Enables running different versions concurrently. Easy to test new
functionality while keeping stable versions for production.
• Leverages YARN local resources.

Distributed data processing jobs typically look like DAGs (Directed Acyclic
Graph).
• Vertices in the graph represent data transformations
• Edges represent data movement from producers to consumers

Tez – Expressing the computation
Page 10
Tez provides the following APIs to define the processing
• DAG API
• Defines the structure of the data processing and the relationship
between producers and consumers
• Enable definition of complex data flow pipelines using simple graph
connection API’s. Tez expands the logical DAG at runtime
• This is how all the tasks in the job get specified
• Runtime API
• Defines the interfaces using which the framework and app code interact
with each other
• App code transforms data and moves it between tasks
• This is how we specify what actually executes in each task on the cluster
nodes

Tez – DAG API
// Define DAG
DAG dag = new DAG();
// Define Vertex
Vertex Map1 = new Vertex(Processor.class);
// Define Edge
Edge edge = Edge(Map1, Reduce1,
SCATTER_GATHER, PERSISTED, SEQUENTIAL,
Output.class, Input.class);
// Connect them
dag.addVertex(Map1).addEdge(edge)…

Tez – DAG API
Page 12
• Data movement – Defines routing of data between tasks
– One-To-One : Data from the ith producer task routes to the ith consumer task.
– Broadcast : Data from a producer task routes to all consumer tasks.
– Scatter-Gather : Producer tasks scatter data into shards and consumer tasks
gather the data. The ith shard from all producer tasks routes to the ith consumer
task.
• Scheduling – Defines when a consumer task is scheduled
– Sequential : Consumer task may be scheduled after a producer task completes.
– Concurrent : Consumer task must be co-scheduled with a producer task.
• Data source – Defines the lifetime/reliability of a task output
– Persisted : Output will be available after the task exits. Output may be lost later
on.
– Persisted-Reliable : Output is reliably stored and will always be available
– Ephemeral : Output is available only while the producer task is running
Edge properties define the connection between producer and
consumer tasks in the DAG

• Input Error event sent by task to the
engine to inform about errors in
reading input. The engine then takes
action by re-generating the input
• Other events to send task completion

Tez – Pig performance gains
• Demonstrates performance gains from a basic translation to a
Tez DAG
• Deeper integration in the works for further improvements

Tez – Observations on Performance
• Number of stages in the DAG
• Higher the number of stages in the DAG, performance of Tez (over MR)
will be better.
• Cluster/queue capacity
• More congested a queue is, the performance of Tez (over MR) will be
better due to container reuse.
• Size of intermediate output
• More the size of intermediate output, the performance of Tez (over MR)
will be better due to reduced HDFS usage.
• Size of data in the job
• For smaller data and more stages, the performance of Tez (over MR) will
be better as percentage of launch overhead in the total time is high for
smaller jobs.
• Offload work to the cluster
• Move as much work as possible to the cluster by modelling it via the job
DAG. Exploit the parallelism and resources of the cluster. E.g. MR split
calculation.
• Vertex caching
• The more re-computation can be avoided the better is the performance.
