- 11. The Challenge
- 12. Requirement: Data availability across a diverse set of dynamic services
- 13. Based on Requirement: Parallel and scalable data access layer required, but not for all data all of the time Typical Parallel File System All fast, all the time. Tiering cost/benefit is negligible and overhead cost is high. Alluxio as deployed • Data in use is fast • Invisible Upstream • Scale based on performance • Scale de-coupled from amount of storage
- 15. CLOUD HOSTING/ANALYTICS Legacy Hadoop Platform Hadoop Cluster ONE Hadoop Cluster TWO Hadoop Cluster THREE Small Containerization Platform Kubernetes Job Controller: low volume workloads (low lift activity) Limitations Data Stored in triplicate Requires high speed storage Requires high IOPS storage Requires many spindles Costly Hadoop nodes Storage is still performant even when you are not using it !!! Heavy Lift Area Lots of performant storage Lots of performant LAN Legacy Platform
- 16. CLOUD HOSTING/ANALYTICS Commercial Boutique Storage Proposal Diskless Physical Hadoop Nodes Hadoop processing nodes connected to remote boutique storage Limitations Extreme cost storage All nodes have singular purpose Requires high speed dedicated LAN/FIBER Requires many spindles Storage vendor lock in Storage vendor support All data on HP storage always Storage is still performant even when you are not Heavy Lift Storage Area Lots of performant storage Lots of performant LAN (Fiber possibly) Lots of replication Extreme performance storage Commercial performance storage Option ONE
- 17. CLOUD HOSTING/ANALYTICS Open-Source Storage Proposal Diskless Physical Hadoop Nodes Hadoop processing nodes connected to remote boutique storage Limitations Learning Curve Internal Staff cost/training All nodes have singular purpose Requires high speed dedicated LAN/FIBER Requires many spindles All data on HP storage always Storage is still performant even when you are not using it !!! Heavy Lift Storage Area Lots of performant storage Lots of performant LAN (Fiber possibly) Lots of replication Extreme performance storage CEPH, Gluster, Lustre, DPFS Open-Source Storage Option TWO
- 18. CLOUD HOSTING/ANALYTICS Data Cache Layer Extreme Speed Storage (Abstraction Layer) 200 Cores 6TB ALL FLASH 12 million read IOPS 40 GB per second sustained read performance Cost effective Average Transfer Speeds Low IOPS requirement Highly Available Built in DR functionality NFS ● Scalable Caching Layer ● RAM/FLASH based ● Compensates for lower speed/cost underlying storage ● Supports Spark/MR ● Replaces Physical HDFS Kubernetes Heavy Lift Platform Alluxio Caching Layer Final Design Choice NFS NFS 20 Hadoop Clusters Same Hardware as 2 Legacy Clusters
- 19. CLOUD HOSTING/ANALYTICS Kubernetes Platform Handles Heavy Lift Object Store or NFS Alluxio Data Cache GPU Containerization Platform (DC/OS) Kubernetes High Volume Transient Workloads Enterprise Cloud Services Static Critical Management Workloads 25 Servers (Can scale to thousands) 1400 Cores 100% Memory No spinning Disk Hadoop Map Reduce Spark Aunsight Tasks Apache Drill All heavy lifting data processing
- 20. Adaptive Read/Write Methods Local Object Store (S3 Compatible) NFS Cloud Object Store (Amazon/Azure) • All Flash • 600GB Aggregate Lan Speed • Extreme IOPS • Low Latency • Temp storage for processing loads • All NVME/Flash • High RAM nodes • High Core Density
- 21. Pre Staged Read Methodology NFS NFS 1) Data written to NFS 2) Alluxio copies data into Flash to pre-stage for processing
- 22. Adaptive Write Methods • All Flash • 600GB Aggregate Lan Speed • Extreme IOPS • Low Latency • Temp storage for processing loads NFS NFS Write to Alluxio only (Must Cache) Any Temp File (High Use) Write through to UFS (Cache Through) (Rare Use) Write Back to UFS (Async Through) Cache/Persist Later (High Use) Write to UFS Only (Through) (Rare Use) Write modes embedded into each write provides maximum efficiency
- 24. Aunalytics Use Case Conclusions • We have mass quantities of historical data that must be stored but a much smaller amount of data that must be processed daily • The (relatively) small amount of data that we must process daily requires parallelism from its underlying storage in order to run in our required time frame • ALL data must be quickly available for high speed processing if required • Allows for (IN Memory) storage performance levels in a controlled, tunable and independently scalable way.
