The Case for Abstractions

Abstraction is a mental process we use when trying to discern what is essential or relevant to a problem.

Tom G. Palmer

cask.co5

Common Abstractions in Computing- Programming Languages

- Assembler > C > C++ > Java > Scala > ? - Memory management, Concurrency, Closures, …

- Web App Servers - CGI-bin > Servlets > JAX-RS - Connection Pools, Security, ...

- Relational Databases - Primitive types -> Semi-structured -> ORM - Transactions, rollback, isolation

cask.co6

Abstractions in Hadoop- MapReduce

- Input/OutputFormat provides some kind of abstraction - Intermediate data (mapper output) must Writable

- HBase

- Row/column keys and values are byte[] - Client must implement encoding of higher level types

- Transactions: Isolation, Consistency

- Existing data abstractions for Hadoop - Apache Hive, Apache Phoenix, …

Storage Engine Abstraction- Storage Engine

- Physical Storage Medium - Lowest level of the abstraction stack

- Benefits - Application code not “polluted” with low-level storage APIs - Portability across storage engines - Portability across different version of the storage engine - Testability in environments with different storage engine - Reusability of code

cask.co9

Storage Format Abstraction- Representation of data in the storage engine

- Serialization of data types to native storage format - Mapping complex types to storage format (ORM) - Schema representation - Provided partially by some storage engines SQL)

- Benefits - Application is not concerned with serialization/deserialization - Schema evolution - Enforces correct schema and representation

cask.co10

Consistency Abstractions- Strong vs. Eventual Consistency - Transactional (ACID) consistency

- Protect data from concurrent modification - Isolation / visibility guarantees - Optimistic Concurrency Control: Handling conflicts

- Benefits - Application code not concerned with consistency - “Framework level correctness”

cask.co11

Data Sharing Abstractions- Sharing/Reusing data across programming paradigms

- Write with Spark Streaming, query with SQL - Share data between batch (MapReduce) and realtime streaming - Data as a s Service (DaaS)

- Benefits - No data silos - Less redundancy in data access

cask.co12

Data Access Pattern Abstractions- Encapsulation of common data access patterns

- Examples: - Indexed Table - TimeSeries - Cube

- Benefits - Cleaner application code - Enforcement of best practices - Avoid data corruption - Separation of concerns/responsibilities

cask.co13

Capability Injection- Framework level Enterprise capabilities

- Metrics - Meta Data - Lineage, Access Audit Trail, Usage stats - Access Control

- Benefits - Operational Capabilities solved at the framework level - Compliance, Governance

The Cost of Abstraction

First you learn the value of abstraction, then you learn the cost of abstraction,

then you're ready to engineer. Kent Beck

Abstractions Gone Wrong

cask.co18

What Makes a Good Abstraction- Minimal Overhead

- Injection happens once - Not in critical path / inner loop

- Not more code - Separation from app code - Reusability

- Storage Optimization - May not expose all the knobs and dials of the storage engine - Allow to bypass the abstraction when necessary

Data Abstractions In Practice- Use Case:

- Ingest from Twitter into a Dataset - Run MapReduce over the Dataset to compute frequent #hashtags - Service to retrieve the top #hashtags - See the lineage for this Dataset
