Improving SparkSQL Performance by 30%: How We Optimize Parquet Pushdown and P...Databricks
Parquet is a very popular column based format. Spark can automatically filter useless data using parquet file statistical data by pushdown filters, such as min-max statistics. On the other hand, Spark user can enable Spark parquet vectorized reader to read parquet files by batch. These features improve Spark performance greatly and save both CPU and IO. Parquet is the default data format of data warehouse in Bytedance. In practice, we find that parquet pushdown filters work poorly resulting in reading too much unnecessary data for statistical data has no discrimination across parquet row groups(column data is out of order when writing to parquet files by ETL jobs).
The Parquet Format and Performance Optimization OpportunitiesDatabricks
The Parquet format is one of the most widely used columnar storage formats in the Spark ecosystem. Given that I/O is expensive and that the storage layer is the entry point for any query execution, understanding the intricacies of your storage format is important for optimizing your workloads.
As an introduction, we will provide context around the format, covering the basics of structured data formats and the underlying physical data storage model alternatives (row-wise, columnar and hybrid). Given this context, we will dive deeper into specifics of the Parquet format: representation on disk, physical data organization (row-groups, column-chunks and pages) and encoding schemes. Now equipped with sufficient background knowledge, we will discuss several performance optimization opportunities with respect to the format: dictionary encoding, page compression, predicate pushdown (min/max skipping), dictionary filtering and partitioning schemes. We will learn how to combat the evil that is ‘many small files’, and will discuss the open-source Delta Lake format in relation to this and Parquet in general.
This talk serves both as an approachable refresher on columnar storage as well as a guide on how to leverage the Parquet format for speeding up analytical workloads in Spark using tangible tips and tricks.
How to Extend Apache Spark with Customized OptimizationsDatabricks
There are a growing set of optimization mechanisms that allow you to achieve competitive SQL performance. Spark has extension points that help third parties to add customizations and optimizations without needing these optimizations to be merged into Apache Spark. This is very powerful and helps extensibility. We have added some enhancements to the existing extension points framework to enable some fine grained control. This talk will be a deep dive at the extension points that is available in Spark today. We will also talk about the enhancements to this API that we developed to help make this API more powerful. This talk will be of benefit to developers who are looking to customize Spark in their deployments.

Distributed systems are made up of many components such as authentication, a persistence layer, stateless services, load balancers, and stateful coordination services. These coordination services are central to the operation of the system, performing tasks such as maintaining system configuration state, ensuring service availability, name resolution, and storing other system metadata. Given their central role in the system it is essential that these systems remain available, fault tolerant and consistent. By providing a highly available file system-like abstraction as well as powerful recipes such as leader election, Apache Zookeeper is often used to implement these services. This talk will go over a generic example of stateful coordination service moving from Zookeeper to Raft.

Building a SIMD Supported Vectorized Native Engine for Spark SQLDatabricks
Spark SQL works very well with structured row-based data. Vectorized reader and writer for parquet/orc can make I/O much faster. It also used WholeStageCodeGen to improve the performance by Java JIT code. However Java JIT is usually not working very well on utilizing latest SIMD instructions under complicated queries. Apache Arrow provides columnar in-memory layout and SIMD optimized kernels as well as a LLVM based SQL engine Gandiva. These native based libraries can accelerate Spark SQL by reduce the CPU usage for both I/O and execution.
Apache Spark Data Source V2 with Wenchen Fan and Gengliang WangDatabricks
As a general computing engine, Spark can process data from various data management/storage systems, including HDFS, Hive, Cassandra and Kafka. For flexibility and high throughput, Spark defines the Data Source API, which is an abstraction of the storage layer. The Data Source API has two requirements.
1) Generality: support reading/writing most data management/storage systems.
2) Flexibility: customize and optimize the read and write paths for different systems based on their capabilities.
Data Source API V2 is one of the most important features coming with Spark 2.3. This talk will dive into the design and implementation of Data Source API V2, with comparison to the Data Source API V1. We also demonstrate how to implement a file-based data source using the Data Source API V2 for showing its generality and flexibility.
Arbitrary Stateful Aggregations using Structured Streaming in Apache SparkDatabricks

Dynamic Partition Pruning in Apache SparkDatabricks
In data analytics frameworks such as Spark it is important to detect and avoid scanning data that is irrelevant to the executed query, an optimization which is known as partition pruning. Dynamic partition pruning occurs when the optimizer is unable to identify at parse time the partitions it has to eliminate. In particular, we consider a star schema which consists of one or multiple fact tables referencing any number of dimension tables. In such join operations, we can prune the partitions the join reads from a fact table by identifying those partitions that result from filtering the dimension tables. In this talk we present a mechanism for performing dynamic partition pruning at runtime by reusing the dimension table broadcast results in hash joins and we show significant improvements for most TPCDS queries.

Monitor Apache Spark 3 on Kubernetes using Metrics and PluginsDatabricks
This talk will cover some practical aspects of Apache Spark monitoring, focusing on measuring Apache Spark running on cloud environments, and aiming to empower Apache Spark users with data-driven performance troubleshooting. Apache Spark metrics allow extracting important information on Apache Spark’s internal execution. In addition, Apache Spark 3 has introduced an improved plugin interface extending the metrics collection to third-party APIs. This is particularly useful when running Apache Spark on cloud environments as it allows measuring OS and container metrics like CPU usage, I/O, memory usage, network throughput, and also measuring metrics related to cloud filesystems access. Participants will learn how to make use of this type of instrumentation to build and run an Apache Spark performance dashboard, which complements the existing Spark WebUI for advanced monitoring and performance troubleshooting.

In cloud-based software stacks, there are varying degrees of automation across different layers: infrastructure, platform, and application. The mismatch in automation often breaks balance in devops, causing ops nightmares in platforms and applications. This talk will overview two projects at Electronic Arts (EA) that address the mismatch by data orchestration: One project automatically generates configurations for all components in a large monitoring system, which reduces the daily average number of alerts from ~1000 to ~20. The other project introduces Alluxio for caching and unifying address space across ETL and analytics workloads, which substantially simplifies architecture, improves performance, and reduces ops overheads.

Caching and tuning fun for high scalabilityWim Godden
Caching has been a 'hot' topic for a few years. But caching takes more than merely taking data and putting it in a cache : the right caching techniques can improve performance and reduce load significantly. But we'll also look at some major pitfalls, showing that caching the wrong way can bring down your site. If you're looking for a clear explanation about various caching techniques and tools like Memcached, Nginx and Varnish, as well as ways to deploy them in an efficient way, this talk is for you.

Stefan Krawczyk discusses how his team at StitchFix use the cloud to enable over 80 data scientists to be productive. He also talks about prototyping ideas, algorithms and analyses, how they set up & keep schemas in sync between Hive, Presto, Redshift & Spark and make access easy for their data scientists, etc. Filmed at qconsf.com..
Stefan Krawczyk is Algo Dev Platform Lead at StitchFix, where he’s leading development of the algorithm development platform. He spent formative years at Stanford, LinkedIn, Nextdoor & Idibon, working on everything from growth engineering, product engineering, data engineering, to recommendation systems, NLP, data science and business intelligence.
Current HDFS Namenode stores all of its metadata in RAM. This has allowed Hadoop clusters to scale to 100K concurrent tasks. However, the memory limits the total number of files that a single NameNode can store. While Federation allows one to create multiple volumes with additional Namenodes, there is a need to scale a single namespace and also to store multiple namespaces in a single Namenode.
This talk describes a project that removes the space limits while maintaining similar performance by caching only the working set or hot metadata in Namenode memory. We believe this approach will be very effective because the subset of files that is frequently accessed is much smaller than the full set of files stored in HDFS.
In this talk we will describe our overall approach and give details of our implementation along with some early performance numbers.

Prefill in LLM inference is known to be resource-intensive, especially for long LLM inputs. While better scheduling can mitigate prefill’s impact, it would be fundamentally better to avoid (most of) prefill. This talk introduces our preliminary effort towards drastically minimizing prefill delay for LLM inputs that naturally reuse text chunks, such as in retrieval-augmented generation. While keeping the KV cache of all text chunks in memory is difficult, we show that it is possible to store them on cheaper yet slower storage. By improving the loading process of the reused KV caches, we can still significantly speed up prefill delay while maintaining the same generation quality.

Speaker:
- Lu Qiu (Data & AI Platform Tech Lead, @Alluxio)
- Siyuan Sheng (Senior Software Engineer, @Alluxio)
Speed and efficiency are two requirements for the underlying infrastructure for machine learning model development. Data access can bottleneck end-to-end machine learning pipelines as training data volume grows and when large model files are more commonly used for serving. For instance, data loading can constitute nearly 80% of the total model training time, resulting in less than 30% GPU utilization. Also, loading large model files for deployment to production can be slow because of slow network or storage read operations. These challenges are prevalent when using popular frameworks like PyTorch, Ray, or HuggingFace, paired with cloud object storage solutions like S3 or GCS, or downloading models from the HuggingFace model hub.
In this presentation, Lu and Siyuan will offer comprehensive insights into improving speed and GPU utilization for model training and serving. You will learn:
- The data loading challenges hindering GPU utilization
- The reference architecture for running PyTorch and Ray jobs while reading data from S3, with benchmark results of training ResNet50 and BERT
- Real-world examples of boosting model performance and GPU utilization through optimized data access

Data Infra Meetup | FIFO Queues are All You Need for Cache EvictionAlluxio, Inc.

Speaker:
- Juncheng Yang(Ph.D Candidate, @CMU)
As a cache eviction algorithm, FIFO has a lot of attractive properties, such as simplicity, speed, scalability, and flash-friendliness. The most prominent criticism of FIFO is its low efficiency (high miss ratio). In this talk, I will describe a simple, scalable FIFO-based algorithm with three static queues (S3-FIFO). Evaluated on 6594 cache traces from 14 datasets, we show that S3- FIFO has lower miss ratios than state-of-the-art algorithms across traces. Moreover, S3-FIFO’s efficiency is robust — it has the lowest mean miss ratio on 10 of the 14 datasets. FIFO queues enable S3-FIFO to achieve good scalability with 6× higher throughput compared to optimized LRU at 16 threads. Our insight is that most objects in skewed workloads will only be accessed once in a short window, so it is critical to evict them early (also called quick demotion). The key of S3-FIFO is a small FIFO queue that filters out most objects from entering the main cache, which provides a guaranteed demotion speed and high demotion precision.

Many companies are working with development architectures for AI platforms but have concerns about efficiency at scale as data volumes increase. They use centralized cloud data lakes, like S3, to store training data for AI platforms. However, GPU shortages add more complications. Storage and compute can be separate, or even remote, making data loading slow and expensive:
1) Optimizing a developmental setup can include manual copies, which are slow and error-prone
2) Directly transferring data across regions or from cloud to on-premises can incur expensive egress fees
This webinar covers solutions to improve data loading for model training. You will learn:
- The data loading challenges with distributed infrastructure
- Typical solutions, including NFS/NAS on object storage, and why they are not the best options
- Common architectures that can improve data loading and cost efficiency

Providing Globus Services to Users of JASMIN for Environmental Data AnalysisGlobus
JASMIN is the UK’s high-performance data analysis platform for environmental science, operated by STFC on behalf of the UK Natural Environment Research Council (NERC). In addition to its role in hosting the CEDA Archive (NERC’s long-term repository for climate, atmospheric science & Earth observation data in the UK), JASMIN provides a collaborative platform to a community of around 2,000 scientists in the UK and beyond, providing nearly 400 environmental science projects with working space, compute resources and tools to facilitate their work. High-performance data transfer into and out of JASMIN has always been a key feature, with many scientists bringing model outputs from supercomputers elsewhere in the UK, to analyse against observational or other model data in the CEDA Archive. A growing number of JASMIN users are now realising the benefits of using the Globus service to provide reliable and efficient data movement and other tasks in this and other contexts. Further use cases involve long-distance (intercontinental) transfers to and from JASMIN, and collecting results from a mobile atmospheric radar system, pushing data to JASMIN via a lightweight Globus deployment. We provide details of how Globus fits into our current infrastructure, our experience of the recent migration to GCSv5.4, and of our interest in developing use of the wider ecosystem of Globus services for the benefit of our user community.
In software engineering, the right architecture is essential for robust, scalable platforms. Wix has undergone a pivotal shift from event sourcing to a CRUD-based model for its microservices. This talk will chart the course of this pivotal journey.
Event sourcing, which records state changes as immutable events, provided robust auditing and "time travel" debugging for Wix Stores' microservices. Despite its benefits, the complexity it introduced in state management slowed development. Wix responded by adopting a simpler, unified CRUD model. This talk will explore the challenges of event sourcing and the advantages of Wix's new "CRUD on steroids" approach, which streamlines API integration and domain event management while preserving data integrity and system resilience.
Participants will gain valuable insights into Wix's strategies for ensuring atomicity in database updates and event production, as well as caching, materialization, and performance optimization techniques within a distributed system.
Join us to discover how Wix has mastered the art of balancing simplicity and extensibility, and learn how the re-adoption of the modest CRUD has turbocharged their development velocity, resilience, and scalability in a high-growth environment.
First Steps with Globus Compute Multi-User EndpointsGlobus
In this presentation we will share our experiences around getting started with the Globus Compute multi-user endpoint. Working with the Pharmacology group at the University of Auckland, we have previously written an application using Globus Compute that can offload computationally expensive steps in the researcher's workflows, which they wish to manage from their familiar Windows environments, onto the NeSI (New Zealand eScience Infrastructure) cluster. Some of the challenges we have encountered were that each researcher had to set up and manage their own single-user globus compute endpoint and that the workloads had varying resource requirements (CPUs, memory and wall time) between different runs. We hope that the multi-user endpoint will help to address these challenges and share an update on our progress here.

How to Position Your Globus Data Portal for Success Ten Good PracticesGlobus
Science gateways allow science and engineering communities to access shared data, software, computing services, and instruments. Science gateways have gained a lot of traction in the last twenty years, as evidenced by projects such as the Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI) and the Center of Excellence on Science Gateways (SGX3) in the US, The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) and its platforms in Australia, and the projects around Virtual Research Environments in Europe. A few mature frameworks have evolved with their different strengths and foci and have been taken up by a larger community such as the Globus Data Portal, Hubzero, Tapis, and Galaxy. However, even when gateways are built on successful frameworks, they continue to face the challenges of ongoing maintenance costs and how to meet the ever-expanding needs of the community they serve with enhanced features. It is not uncommon that gateways with compelling use cases are nonetheless unable to get past the prototype phase and become a full production service, or if they do, they don't survive more than a couple of years. While there is no guaranteed pathway to success, it seems likely that for any gateway there is a need for a strong community and/or solid funding streams to create and sustain its success. With over twenty years of examples to draw from, this presentation goes into detail for ten factors common to successful and enduring gateways that effectively serve as best practices for any new or developing gateway.

6. Alluxio Local Cache: Overview
Production Deployment
● Deployed to 3 clusters, with >200
nodes each
● Plugged in as a local library in
Presto worker
● Leverage Presto workers’ local
NVMe disks
● Selective caching based on cache
filter
https://prestodb.io/blog/2020/06/16/alluxio-datacaching
8. Challenge #1: Realtime Partition Updates
● At Uber, a lot of tables/partitions are constantly changing
○ Upsert queries constantly into Hudi tables
● Partition id alone as caching key is not sufficient
○ Same partition may have changed in Hive, while Alluxio still caches the
outdated version
● Partitions in cache are outdated
9. Challenge #1: Realtime Partition Updates
● Solution: Add Hive latest modification time to caching key
○ Previous caching key: hdfs://<path>
○ New caching key: hdfs://<path><mod time>
■ Concatenate last modification time to the path
● New partition with latest modification gets cached
● Tradeoff: outdated partition still present in cache, wasting caching space until
evicted
○ Improving eviction strategy WIP
10. Challenge #2: Cluster Membership Change
● Cached bytes only present on certain nodes
○ SOFT_AFFINITY
● Presto worker nodes may go up/down due to operational activities
○ Node crash
○ Node taken down for maintenance
○ Ad-hoc Node restart
● When node changes, node selection may hit wrong nodes
12. Challenge #2: Cluster Membership Change
Presto Coordinator
Presto Worker#0 Presto Worker#1 Presto Worker#2
key=4
Now node#3 goes down, new lookup: key 4 % 2 nodes = 0, but worker#0 does not have the bytes
13. Challenge #2: Cluster Membership Change
Solution: Node id based consistent
hashing
● All nodes are placed on a virtual
ring
● Relative ordering of nodes on
the ring doesn’t change
● Always look up the key on the
ring
○ Instead of using mode
based hash
● Use replication for better
robustness
14. Challenge #3: Cache Size Restriction
● At Uber, PBs accessed by Presto queries >> PBs Disks space available on
Worker nodes
○ 50PB of data accessed daily v.s 500GB local disk space
○ Heavy eviction can hurt overall cache performance
● Only a selected set of data can fit into cache:
○ certain tables
○ certain number of partitions
15. Challenge #3: Cache Size Restriction
● Solution: Cache Filter
○ A mechanism that decide whether to cache a table and how many
partitions
○ Based on a static json config that specifies:
■ which table are eligible for caching
■ how many partitions to cache for each table
● A sample configuration:
{
"databases": [{
"name": "database_foo",
"tables": [{
"name" : "table_bar",
"maxCachedPartitions": 100}]}]
}
16. Challenge #3: Cache Size Restriction
● Greatly increased cache hit rate
○ From ~65% to >90%
● Notes wrt Cache Filter
○ Manual, static configuration
○ Should be based on traffic pattern, e.g.:
■ Most frequently accessed tables
■ Most common # of partitions being accessed
■ Tables that do not change too frequently
■ Ideally, should be based on shadow caching numbers and table
level metrics
18. Current Status and Next Steps
● Deployed to production cluster
○ 3 clusters of 200+ nodes each, all nodes on NVMe disks, 500GB cache space per
node
○ Using cache filter to cache ~20 most frequently accessed tables
○ Initial measurement shows great improvement
■ ~1/3 of wall time for input scan (TableScanOperator and
ScanFilterProjectOperator) vs no cache
● Next Steps
○ Onboard more tables/Improve process of table onboarding
■ E.g. shadow cache
○ Better support for changing partitions/Hoodie tables
○ Other optimizations
■ E.g. load balancing between nodes
22. Persistent File Level Metadata for Local Cache
● Prevent stale caching
○ The underlying data files might be changed by the 3rd
party frameworks. (This situation might be rare in hive
table, but very common in hudi tables)
● Metadata should be recoverable after server restart
● File or Partition Level Eviction
23. Future Work
● Performance Tuning
○ Improve cache efficiency
○ Optimized for SATA or mechanical hard drives
● Adopt Shadow Cache
○ Table-level working set estimation
○ Partition-level popularity estimation
