- 1. Conquering the Lambda architecture in LinkedIn metrics platform with Apache Calcite and Apache Samza Khai Tran Staff Software Engineer
- 2. Agenda ● Overview of LinkedIn metrics platform ● Moving from offline to nearline ● Under the hood of the nearline architecture ● Nearline production usecase ● Conclusion
- 3. Overview of LinkedIn metrics platform
- 4. Metrics @ LinkedIn ● Metrics = Measurements over tracking data ● Crucial for decision making: ○ Experimentation - test everything ○ Reporting - monitor and alert ○ In production, site-facing applications
- 5. We provide: ● A trusted repository of metrics ● A self-serve platform for sustainable lifecycle of metrics In production Experimentation Reporting Primary Data Unified Metrics Platform LinkedIn unified metrics platform (UMP)
- 6. Growth of UMP Metrics 2016 20172015 6800 4680 1100 Current: 8000+ metrics

- 8. Moving from offline to nearline
- 9. Offline computation flows Hourly job latency: 3-6 hours -> want realtime/nearline ...... Metric union User code User code Cubing, Rollup Dimension augmentation HDFS tables Dali views Pinot, Presto Azkaban execution Espresso, Oracle, MySQL
- 10. ... What we want for nearline flows Metric unionUser code User code Samza job Dimension augmentation Pinot
- 11. Latency is not the only requirement Easy to onboard ● Minimum effort to convert existing offline into nearline ● Easy to write user code for new nearline flows Easy to maintain ● Just one version of user code - single source of truth ● Run as a service Latency ● ~5 - 30 mins
- 12. Samza jobs Putting things together Pinot Batch jobs UMP realtime platform UMP offline platform HDFS Raptor Lambda architecture with a single codebase code configMetrics definition
- 13. Current support User code in Pig ● LOAD, STORE ● FILTER, SAMPLE, SPLIT, UNION ● Simple FOREACH ● JOIN - all semantics ● GROUP/COGROUP, DISTINCT ● Record/Array FLATTEN ● Java UDFs, Python UDFs ● Pig Nested FOREACH and sort/limit (in Windows) ● Hive Not yet
- 14. Under the hood of the nearline architecture
- 15. Pig to Samza through SQL processing Open source framework for building dynamic data management systems. Including: ➢ SQL Parser ➢ Relational algebra APIs ➢ Query planning engine We built UMP nearline with: ➢ Pig’s Grunt parser ➢ Calcite relational algebra ➢ Calcite query planning engine

- 23. Code-gen From Samza physical plans: ➢ Generate Samza code for constructing the stream graph using Samza Fluent APIs . Mapping: ➢ Samza physical nodes -> corresponding stream APIs: ○ Samza project -> stream.map() ○ Samza filter -> stream.filter() ○ ... ➢ Relational expressions -> lamba functions: ○ Filter expressions -> filter() functions ○ Project expressions -> map() functions ○ ...
