Yuanjian, Thanks for sharing your progress! I was wondering if there was any 
prototype code that we could read to get an idea of what the implementation 
looks like? We can evaluate the design together and also benchmark workloads 
from across the community – that is, we can collect more data from more Spark 
users.

 

The experience would be greatly appreciated in the discussion.

Subject: Re: [Feedback Requested] SPARK-25299: Using Distributed Storage for 
Persisting Shuffle Data

 

Hi Matt, 

     Thanks for the great document and proposal, I want to +1 for the reliable 
shuffle data and give some feedback.

     I think a reliable shuffle service based on DFS is necessary on Spark, 
especially running Spark job over unstable environment. For example, while 
mixed deploying Spark with online service, Spark executor will be killed any 
time. Current stage retry strategy will make the job many times slower than 
normal job.

     Actually we(Baidu inc) solved this problem by stable shuffle service over 
Hadoop, and we are now docking Spark to this shuffle service. The POC work will 
be done at October as expect. We'll post more benchmark and detailed work at 
that time. I'm still reading your discussion document and happy to give more 
feedback in the doc.

 

Thanks,

Yuanjian Li

Hi everyone,

 

I filed SPARK-25299 [issues.apache.org] to promote discussion on how we can 
improve the shuffle operation in Spark. The basic premise is to discuss the 
ways we can leverage distributed storage to improve the reliability and 
isolation of Spark’s shuffle architecture.

 

A few designs and a full problem statement are outlined in this architecture 
discussion document [docs.google.com].

 

This is a complex problem and it would be great to get feedback from the 
community about the right direction to take this work in. Note that we have not 
yet committed to a specific implementation and architecture – there’s a lot 
that needs to be discussed for this improvement, so we hope to get as much 
input as possible before moving forward with a design.

 

Please feel free to leave comments and suggestions on the JIRA ticket or on the 
discussion document.

 

Thank you!
