--------------------------------------
Summary: Topology aware block replication
Key: SPARK-15352
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-15352
Project: Spark
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Block Manager, Mesos, Spark Core, YARN
Reporter: Shubham Chopra
With cached RDDs, Spark can be used for online analytics where it is used to
respond to online queries. But loss of RDD partitions due to node/executor
failures can cause huge delays in such use cases as the data would have to be
regenerated.
Cached RDDs, even when using multiple replicas per block, are not currently
resilient to node failures when multiple executors are started on the same
node. Block replication currently chooses a peer at random, and this peer could
also exist on the same host.
This effort would add topology aware replication to Spark that can be enabled
with pluggable strategies. For ease of development/review, this is being broken
down to three major work-efforts:
1. Making peer selection for replication pluggable
2. Providing pluggable implementations for providing topology and topology
aware replication
3. Pro-active replenishment of lost blocks
