Notes about how current algorithm(SoftAffinity based) works, why remote reads 
happen and the new algorithm (LocalAffinity based) implemented.

SoftAffinity (current algorithm for scheduling parquet scan fragments):

Initialization (getPlan -> GetGroupScan -> ParquetGroupScan.init):
1.When parquet metadata is read, for each rowGroup,
HostAffinity for each host (ratio of number of bytes present on that host / 
total bytes for the rowGroup) is calculated.
2. EndPointAffinity for each host (ratio of number of bytes on the host/total 
bytes  for the whole scan) is calculated.

Parallelize the scan (SoftAffinityFragmentParallelizer.parallelizeFragment):
1. Compute how many total fragments to schedule (width)  (Based on cost, slice 
target, min and maxWidth for the operator, maxGlobalWidth, maxWidthPerNode etc.)
2. Divide by number of nodes  - This is the average number of fragments we want 
to run on each node.
3. To favor nodes with affinity > 0 i.e nodes that have some local data (does 
not matter what the value is), 
    multiply the value from 2 above by affinity factor  - This is the number of 
fragments we want to schedule on each node with affinity.
4. Schedule upto  number of fragments calculated from 3 above on each of the 
nodes with affinity in round robin fashion.
5. If we schedule the required number of fragments (i.e. width from 1 above), 
we are done.
6. Else, rest of fragments, we schedule on nodes which do not have any local 
data i.e. nodes with no affinity in a round robin fashion.

Assignment(AssignmentCreator.getMappings):
1. To distribute rowGroups uniformly, calculate maxWork each fragment should do 
(total number of rowGroups/total number of fragments)
2.  For each endpoint, calculate the maxCount (maxWork * number of fragments on 
the endpoint) and minCount (at least 1 per fragment or (maxWork-1) * number of 
fragments) number of rowGroups to assign. 
3. Assign up to minCount rowGroups per endpoint in a round robin fashion, 
selecting from the sorted list of hosts(sorted based on host affinity) for each 
rowGroup.
4. If there are any leftovers, assign to the endPoints which do not have 
minimum (i.e. minCount) assigned yet.
5. If there are still leftovers, assign to the endPoints which do not maximum 
(i.e. maxCount) assigned yet.

Why is this causing remote reads and why increasing affinity factor does not 
help ?
When the data is skewed i.e. data is not distributed equally, all nodes with 
affinity still get equal number of fragments assigned (because they have some 
data). 
We are not assigning fragments proportional to affinity value i.e. amount of 
data available on the node.
So, some of them have to do remote read since data is not available locally. 
Since they all are treated equally,
increasing affinity factor does not help. affinity factor only helps in 
eliminating nodes which do not
have any data vs. nodes which have some data.

Another problem  is calculation of endpoint affinity values. We do not take 
replication factor into account and end up including bytes for a rowGroup 
multiple times on different hosts. Based on data distribution, this results in 
skewed affinity values which do not reflect how those values are being/should 
be used. 


LocalAffinity (new algorithm based on locality of data):
This is not enabled by default. To use the new algorithm, we need to set system 
option `parquet.use_local_affinity`=true. Every effort is made to have the new 
code under the new option so no regressions are introduced. 
This will invoke a new local affinity fragment parallelizer which is less 
restrictive than soft affinity fragment parallelizer and is enabled only for 
parquet group scan.

Initialization(getPlan -> GetGroupScan -> ParquetGroupScan.init):
1. When parquet metadata is read, for each rowGroup, we need to compute the 
best possible host to scan it on (computeRowGroupAssignment)
2. For each rowGroup, get the lists of hosts which have maximum data available 
locally for the rowGroup (topEndpoints).
3. From that list, pick the node which has minimum amount of work assigned so 
far (based on number of bytes assigned to scan on that node).
4. Repeat 2 and 3  for second pass so we make adjustments after one round of 
allocations are done i.e. after first iteration.
5. Once we compute the best possible node on which to scan the rowGroup, save 
that information (preferredEndpoint). Note: preferredEndpoint will be null if 
there is no drillbit running on any of the nodes which have data or if it is 
local file system. 
6. Update endpointAffinity for each node with the number of rowGroups 
(localWorkUnits) assigned to be scanned on that endpoint.

Parallelize the Scan(LocalAffinityFragmentParallelizer.parallelizeFragment):
1. Decide how many total fragments to run (width) (Based on cost, slice target, 
min and maxWidth for the operator, maxGlobalWidth, maxWidthPerNode etc.)
2. Include each endpoint which has affinity with localWorkUnits > 0 in the list 
of endpoints on which we want to schedule the fragments (endpointPool).
3. Assign one fragment to each of the nodes from the above endpointPool to make 
sure minimum of one is assigned to each of them.
4. Calculate how many fragments to assign to each of the nodes in endpointPool 
based on how much work they have to do i.e. targetAllocation (proportional to 
localWorkUnits assigned to the node).
5. Go through the endpointPool in a round robin way and keep assigning 
fragments to individual nodes till their target allocation or maxWidthPerNodes 
is reached.
6. Stop when overall allocation reaches the total target i.e. x above. 
7. It is possible that some rowGroups  have preferred endPoints null (because 
there is no drill bit running on the hosts which have data for the rowGroup). 
In that case, we will have unassigned work Items.
8. Allocate the fragments for unassigned work items to active end points, 
making sure maxWidthPerNode constraint is honored.

Assignment(AssignmentCreator.getMappings):
1. When the system option parquet.use_local_affinity is set to true, assign 
each rowGroup to a fragment (round robin) on it’s preferredEndPoint 
(assignLocal).
2. If the preferredEndpoint is null or fragment is not available on that node, 
add it to unassignedList
3. Fallback to current algorithm to assign unassigned list of rowGroups from 2.
