Next Gen Stream Data Processing• Data from variety of sources (IoT, Kafka, files, social media etc.)• Unbounded, continuous data streams
ᵒ Batch can be processed as stream (but a stream is not a batch)• (In-memory) Processing with temporal boundaries (windows)• Stateful operations: Aggregation, Rules, … -> Analytics• Results stored to variety of sinks or destinations
ᵒ Streaming application can also serve data with very low latency

Apache Apex• In-memory, distributed stream processing
• Application logic broken into components called operators that run in a distributed fashion across your cluster
• Natural programming model• Unobtrusive Java API to express (custom) logic• Maintain state and metrics in your member variables
• Scalable, high throughput, low latency• Operators can be scaled up or down at runtime according to the load and SLA• Dynamic scaling (elasticity), compute locality
• Fault tolerance & correctness• Automatically recover from node outages without having to reprocess from
beginning• State is preserved, checkpointing, incremental recovery• End-to-end exactly-once
• Operability• System and application metrics, record/visualize data• Dynamic changes

Apex Platform Overview

Native Hadoop Integration
• YARN is the resource manager
• HDFS for storing persistent state
6
Application Development Model
A Stream is a sequence of data tuplesA typical Operator takes one or more input streams, performs computations & emits one or more output streams
• Each Operator is YOUR custom business logic in java, or built-in operator from our open source library• Operator has many instances that run in parallel and each instance is single-threaded
Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) is made up of operators and streams

Dynamic Partitioning
• Partitioning change while application is runningᵒ Change number of partitions at runtime based on statsᵒ Determine initial number of partitions dynamically
• Kafka operators scale according to number of kafka partitionsᵒ Supports re-distribution of state when number of partitions changeᵒ API for custom scaler or partitioner

Fault Tolerance• Operator state is checkpointed to persistent store
ᵒ Automatically performed by engine, no additional coding neededᵒ Asynchronous and distributed ᵒ In case of failure operators are restarted from checkpoint state
• Automatic detection and recovery of failed containersᵒ Heartbeat mechanismᵒ YARN process status notification
• Buffering to enable replay of data from recovered pointᵒ Fast, incremental recovery, spike handling
• Application master state checkpointedᵒ Snapshot of physical (and logical) planᵒ Execution layer change log
• In-memory PubSub• Stores results emitted by operator until committed• Handles backpressure / spillover to local disk• Ordering, idempotency

End-to-End Exactly Once
14
• Important when writing to external systems• Data should not be duplicated or lost in the external system in case
of application failures• Common external systems
ᵒ Databasesᵒ Filesᵒ Message queues
• Exactly-once = at-least-once + idempotency + consistent state• Data duplication must be avoided when data is replayed from
checkpointᵒ Operators implement the logic dependent on the external systemᵒ Platform provides checkpointing and repeatable windowing
Exactly Once - Files
15
File Data
Offset
• Operator saves file offset during checkpoint
• File contents are flushed before checkpoint to ensure there is no pending data in buffer
• On recovery platform restores the file offset value from checkpoint
• Operator truncates the file to the offset
• Starts writing data again• Ensures no data is duplicated or lost

Data TableMeta Table
• Data in a window is written out in a single transaction
• Window id is also written to a meta table as part of the same transaction
• Operator reads the window id from meta table on recovery
• Ignores data for windows less than the recovered window id and writes new data
• Partial window data before failure will not appear in data table as transaction was not committed
• Assumes idempotency for replay
17
Ingestion Solution• Application package with operators ready to use for ingestion• Input and output connectors
• Kafka – Dynamically scalable with Kafka scale• HDFS Block and file• S3• Databases with JDBC
- Postgres, Mysql• Processing
• Deduper• Parsing, Filtering & Transform
• Comes with pre-built pipelines• Kafka to HDFS with Deduper• HDFS sync between two clusters or S3 to HDFS
• Currently in beta• If interested please contact [email protected]
