[~ram_krish], [~anoopsamjohn], [~eshcar], [~ebortnik] and myself met last Weds 
morning, the 19th of October to chat about where we are all at on inmemory 
compaction. Here are some rough notes:

{code}
1. Reiteration that inmemory compaction needs to be on all the time with no 
associated perf degradation and with minimal config required to get benefit.
2. Need more testing and with more variety (Zipfian so inmemory compaction gets 
a chance to shine). We'll all pitch in here.
3. When to merge (Eshcar "It is just a question of when.."). Back and forth. 
Concern that current default of merge on every flush is a default that will 
make inmemory compaction look bad because it for sure generates loads of 
garbage. Suggestion to go to other extreme where we merge only at flush-to-disk 
letting the pipeline build up in memory.
4. We'll pick up CellChunkMap at the next meeting but meantime wukk revive a 
rumored existing umbrella issue. CCM is where we'll get biggest bang for the 
buck so excited to get this done. Need to solve the cell-too-big-issue still. 
Maybe split its dev some between Y! and Intel/St.Ack... TBD.
5. Ram and Anoop fixed some GC issues in "HBASE-16608 Introducing the ability 
to merge ImmutableSegments without copy-compaction or SQM usage" and will put 
up a new version of patch w/ fixes. Generally agreed patch is close to commit.

The Y! crew are on holiday until next Tuesday.

Did the note to the dev list go up on state of inmemory compaction (after 
Tuesday -- smile).
...

The back-and-forth about when/how to merge will probably continue into 
HBase-16417; we have to keep looking for the sweet spot.

Ya looks like a good approach..   With respect to memory this will help all 
when we have in memory HFile flush stuff as those cells will not have other 
java object overhead.  Till that level was/is our aim..   And then the off 
heaping stuff..  (As a next step Stack?)

OK then we'll go for several steps.
I also assume this is an ok to open a new umbrella Jira for this purpose with a

Thanks [~ebortnik]

On 1., do you have a particular use that you are targeting? A particular 
app/user?

On...

bq. The admin should know what he is doing.

I think for many hbase deploys, the admin knows what they are doing but finding 
all the features and configs that are available is work that many admins do not 
have the time to figure and even when found, unless there is lots of hearsay 
that enabling the config helps their case, that others have had good success 
enabling the feature, they are often reluctant to enable the feature themselves 
(usually because they are overworked supporting hbase and many other 
subsubsystems more than for any other reason...or, there is lots of stuff in 
hbase and the hadoop space that has been added but is not well tested...)  
Hence my argument for having the feature always on. If they are doing lots of 
overwrite, they get an improvement. If not, could we have it so it does not 
cost having it enabled? (Tall order I know). If always on, it will get exercise 
and we'll find the bugs. BTW, it is ok if it eats into cache especially if the 
StoreSegment soon converts to be a data structure that is fast lookup.

Otherwise, 1. sounds great.

2. sounds great too. Will be easier on all concerned getting the work 
contributed. Could we replace Snapshot with StoreSegment?  Yeah, someone of us 
maybe could have a go at step 3.

Good by you too [~anoop.hbase]?

Thanks for all the feedback. 

[~stack], you actually point out two things. 
1. Need to sharpen the feature focus. 
2. Need to structure the change in a digestible way, in more than just one 
patch. 

Addressing your questions/suggestions.
1. The primary goal is speeding up data access, via eliminating redundancies 
(compacting) before the data is flushed to disk. The optimization is beneficial 
for workloads with medium-to-high locality of writes, for example workloads 
with medium-to-high key churn, like persistent messaging. It is not beneficial 
for all use cases because it requires more memory for memstores, and therefore 
eats into the cache memory. Following the community advice, we designed it as a 
CF-level attribute (non-default). The admin should know what he is doing. The 
secondary goal is reducing the memstore footprint, by storing immutable parts 
of it in RAM in serialized, and potentially compressed, format (e.g., in-memory 
HFile). Doing so reduces the memory-speed tradeoff. The current implementation 
achieves the first goal, and provides platform to implement the second goal 
easily. 

2. With that in mind, we suggest to start a new clean umbrella jira, and 
structure it as 3 subtasks (respectively, patches). (1) Infrastructure - 
refactoring of the MemStore hierarchy, including having StoreSegment as 
first-class citizen. (2) Implementation of CompactingMemstore, with 
non-optimized immutable segment implementation; this includes all (few) changes 
at the HRegion level, and  (3) in-memory HFile optimization (not implemented 
currently). The objective is landing the first two patches one after the other, 
while making the reviewers' life easier (credit goes to [~stack] :)). The third 
patch could be implemented later, either by us or by someone else; it should 
not gate the second one though because that would defeat the purpose of having 
small, controllable changes. 

Does this make sense? Once we get a green light, we'll go restructure the 
current patch.

Latency spikes are from the evaluation we did with the 0.98 branch (posted July 
14).
In the more recent evaluation we did we were able to identify the cause of the 
spikes and avoid it (anyway thanks for suggesting to help :) ).
Without the spikes it is easier to see the benefit of the new feature.

[~eshcar] Thanks. I missed that. There is at least one case where there is a 
clear benefit (I can help w/ the latency spike). Hopefully we can have it so 
this feature is near always beneficial and if not that, that it is an enabler 
of other features that will show general benefit (We are on that path I 
believe).

Thanks for the design doc update.

What do you lot think of the new 'principals' (am asking the authors).

We go from "The data is kept in memory for as long as possible" to instead, 
"...[u]se the in­memory space effectively, by periodically compacting the 
memstore content."

We also talk of 'compaction'. What do we mean by compaction? The removal of 
data that has been overwritten? Or making the data take up smaller space in 
RAM?  The latter is a fine objective but what are you thinking? At first there 
will be no compaction. We'll just introduce the segments and pipeline. Later 
we'll want to add in 'compaction'. We'll expend CPU to change skip list to a 
more compact format. What should it be. We posit hfile or the blocks that will 
go into hfiles. Does that makes sense as an in memory data structure? If it 
does, good. If not, what should the in memory compacted format be? Have you 
done any exploration here?

Do we have a sense of how much advantage there is to be had 'compacting' 
segments in the pipeline?

How do we ensure this feature is of benefit 90% of the time and not for some 
exotic use case where most of the data is being overwritten and the column 
families are 'in memory'. Even then, do we have measure to see the improvement 
to be had?

Let me look at the patch (smile). In fact, the above questions come of my 
trying to look at the patch. Thanks.

Reading patch, in_memory_flush seems like better name for this feature... 

Other observations having looked at the patch are that,  there is benefit here 
if only for the refactor that was done so could introduce pipeline and segment. 
You might consider getting in the enabling refactor first. It would make your 
patch smaller and piecemeal its delivery. Would be easier for reviewers to 
digest and you'd have a win under your belt.

Any numbers/metrics on this patch running against a dataset?

Finished reviewing page #1. There are enough comments posted for the moment. 
Thanks.

bq. You used to be passionate about this feature

The passion has not gone away... This could be an important enabling feature.. 
especially if we can get to in-memory hfile and smaller memstores

bq. Specifically, we removed (undo) some of the changes to the HRegion and 
FlushPolicy classes. We moved the code for triggering in memory flush into the 
compacting memstore implementation.

Good.

bq. we did not remove the snapshot 

You mean, the comment that snapshot is an implementation detail of the default 
implementation that should not be exposed outside of DefaultMemStore? If so, 
that is fine. Yes, a follow-on issue.

bq. we did not remove the StoreSegmentScanner tier from the KeyValueScanner 
hierarchy...

Not sure what this refers too... I've been away from the patch too long.. let 
me look at the patch.

Did the design doc get updated with justifications for this feature?  In 
particular principals like 'The data is kept in memory for as long as possible' 
 or statements like this: "...may help in some scenarios, however it might also 
add unnecessary overhead in other scenarios without any performance gains, like 
when there are no in­memory duplicate records most of the time." We still think 
this last statement true? If this feature is only of use when in-memory 
duplicate records -- a relatively rare instance -- then there is a lot of code 
being added for this case. Can you go bigger? Can you come up with arguments 
that have it that this feature is advantageous 90% of the time. Above I talk of 
better perf because we'll be able to have the in-memory data in a more compact, 
perforrmant (read-only) format than having it in ConcurrentSkipList. Flushes 
could be faster if the format in memory is an hfile (especially if the hfile 
were offheap as came up in a recent offlist chat w/ [~anoop.hbase]). Can we 
come up with other reasons with why this is the bees knees? ([~anoop.hbase] you 
have input here boss?). Thanks. Let me look at the patch.

Nothing else on our table.
Any feedback?
Patch is available on RB.
Considering release audit is unrelated to our patch last QA is {code}+1

Eshcar Hillel commented on HBASE-13408:
---

Great comments and questions [~stack].
We will work on improving the document and code along the lines you suggested 
and the code review. Meanwhile here are some answers and clarifications:

bq. The part that will be flushed is the 'compacted' part?

Yes. And specifically, it would be the tail of the compaction pipeline which is 
comprised of segments list.

bq. On name of the config., I think it should be IN_MEMORY_COMPACTION rather 
than COMPACTED

We’ll change the name, however we feel it is better to have it off by default, 
at least until users/applications are fully aware of the implications of this 
feature.

bq. Can the in-memory flush use same code as the flush-to-disk flush? Ditto on 
compaction?

Flush - no, compaction - yes.
In memory flush makes changes to in memory data structures, while disk flush 
writes to disk.
When compacted memstore fully supports HFile format, can share the same 
compaction code.

bq. what is the above (flush­total­size) for?
bq. can you be more clear on where the threshold for flush to disk is?

Currently flush is called when memstore size reaches 128MB, however region can 
tolerate even larger memstore size before blocking the update operation. So 
there is lower bound for triggering a flush and an upper bound for triggering a 
flush while blocking update operations.
With flush-total-size we attempt to further refine these boundaries, and have a 
soft lower bound instead of a hard bound.
In the new solution region can tolerate memstore size larger than 128MB (but 
smaller than flush-total-size) before calling a flush to disk, knowing that the 
size is not necessarily monotonically increasing between flushes. We 
distinguish between the data that is in active segments (which are still 
bounded by 128MB) and overflow segments being compacted. The size of all data 
in memstore is bounded by flush-total-size, where flush-size < flush-total-size 
< flush-blocking size.

bq. What is a snapshot in this scheme? we have to do a merge sort on flush to 
make the hfile?

The snapshot is a single immutable segment that is *not* subject to compaction. 
There is no need to do a merge sort on flush to disk.

bq. Do we hold the region lock while we compact the in-memory segments on a 
column family? Every time a compaction runs, it compacts all segments in the 
pipeline?

No - the lock is held only while making the changes to the in-memory data 
structures: removing the tail segment from the compaction pipeline and crossing 
it to snapshot.
Yes - currently a compacion compacts all segments in the pipeline.

bq. I'm not sure I follow the approximation of oldest sequence id.

This was explained in posts between july 23-july 30. Can explain this again if 
required.  

bq. Do you have a rig where you can try out your implementation apart from 
running it inside a regionserver?

What do you mean by rig? If you mean benchmark environment then no. If you mean 
testing then these are included in the patch.

bq. we talking about adding one more thread – a compacting thread – per Store?

In the new design, the threads are run by the region server executor.

bq. On MemstoreScanner, we are keeping the fact that the implementation is 
crossing Segments an internal implementation detail?

Yes.

bq. I suppose you'll deliver a skiplist version first and then move on to work 
on in-memory storefile, a more compact in-memory representation?

This is a task that should definitely be completed; HBASE-10713 is a good 
starting point.

bq. Seems like the whole notion of snapshot should not be exposed to the 
client. It is an implementation detail of the original memstore, the 
defaultmemstore, something that we should try not expose.

Agree, however seems out of the scope of the current Jira which focuses on 
in-memory compaction.

Part of the next patch will be configurable in-memory-compaction per-store 
property, unrelated to the in-memory property. 

General request - please speak up about any additional major issues now. We'd 
prefer this re-design round be the final before landing the feature.

Thanks for the update to the design doc. It is great.

"This may result in underutilization of the memory due to duplicate entries per 
row, for example, when hot data is continuously updated."

Other reasons for compactions in memory would be to move data from an 
expensive, fat if-convenient data structure -- the skip list -- to a data 
structure that is more compact in memory and more efficient to access (can 
exploit the fact that it is read-only, can trigger the in-memory flush when 
memstore hits some 'small' size -- should improve perf). The latter is 
especially pertinent in the case where a flush is encoded and/or compressed 
such that the in-memory representation may be, say 128MB, but then the hfile on 
disk is much smaller than this.  IIRC we have seen cases where it takes longer 
to pull an entry from a large skip list than it does from cache. We could also 
remove 'duplicates' by coalescing increments, applying deletes to deleted data 
if present in memory.

Downsides to in-memory compaction is that we carry a larger backlog of WALs 
making MTTR take longer.

bq. Data is kept in memory for as long as possible, by periodically compacting 
the memstore content.

I think the principal should be more that you will afford yourself the luxury 
of being able to make smarter decisions on when to flush (Keeping data in 
memory as long as possible could actual be detrimental over the long run).

bq. A flush call may interrupt an in­progress compaction and flush to the disk 
part of the data.

The part that will be flushed is the 'compacted' part? Just trying to 
understand better.

On name of the config., I think it should be IN_MEMORY_COMPACTION rather than 
COMPACTED. We already have a compaction process. Add the IN_MEMORY prefix to 
show where it applies.  Also, this feature should be on by default. You might 
want to say that in the doc as being your intent. Lets prove it makes life 
better so we can indeed enable it by default.

Can the in-memory flush use same code as the flush-to-disk flush? Ditto on 
compaction?

bq. . An additional flush­total­size is defined as the average of flush­size 
and blocking­flush­size. 

Pardon me, what is the above for?

bq.  In case of FlushLargeStoresPolicy, the decision is based on the size of 
the active segment.

I'm not clear on when a flush to disk will happen. I get you need headroom for 
in-memory flush and compaction to run but can you be more clear on where the 
threshold for flush to disk is?  Thanks.

What is a snapshot in this scheme? It is just the last segment in the pipeline? 
Each pipeline segment because an hfile? Or we have to do a merge sort on flush 
to make the hfile?

{code}
Upon in­memory flush, we take advantage of the existing blocking mechanism ­­ 
the active
segment is pushed to the pipeline while holding the region updatesLockin 
exclusive mode.
Then, a compaction is applied at the background to all pipeline segments 
resulting in a single
immutable segment. This procedure is executed at the scope of the store level, 
and specifically
in the context of the compacted memstore.
{code}

Do we hold the region lock while we compact the in-memory segments on a column 
family? Every time a compaction runs, it compacts all segments in the pipeline?

I'm not sure I follow the approximation of oldest sequence id. Why does it have 
to to be an approximation? Can't we keep a running oldest sequenceid seen? 
(Removing it too if compactions remove the cell that is oldest -- I suppose 
this could complicate acccounting... how you find the next oldest). So, you 
have a map of timestamp to oldest sequenceid in the segment? And when a segment 
is flushed to disk, the next oldest becomes oldest edit in memory?

Do you have a rig where you can try out your implementation apart from running 
it inside a regionserver?

Should be CompactingMemStore rather than CompactedMemStore.

The class diagram looks great.

So, on design, we talking about adding one more thread -- a compacting thread 
-- per Store? Do we have to do this?  HBase has too many threads already. 
Minimally, these threads can be run by an executor so they don't live for ever 
while the process is up?  It could be trigger by an in-memory flush.

On compactionpipeline, add rather than push-in and remove rather than pull-out?

On MemstoreScanner, we are keeping the fact that the implementation is crossing 
Segments an internal implementation detail? +1 on making the MemStoreScanner 
first-class detached from DefaultMemStore.

MemStoreCompactor​ should not be first class, right? It should be internal to 
the CompactingMemStore implementation?

Yeah, its fine if internally the kv sets go into a StoreSegment...but clients 
don't have to know this, right?

How will you implement

Anoop Sam John commented on HBASE-13408:


The default memstore impl (what we have today) will keep cells in memory and 
flush when request comes (as per reach of max size or global heap pressure).   
When we say a new memstore impl which will do in memory compaction and keep 
more cell in memory for longer time  I would expect this to be purely a new 
memstore impl alone with out much affecting the other areas..  But on a pass 
over the RB, I can see we are touching many other areas adding new APIs around 
flush etc...  IMHO this should be avoided..  Like it is not good that an 
outside module tells Memstore to do in memory flush and in memory compaction 
and do disk flush.. It is an internal detail of that memstore impl.   
The new memstore impl has to decide till when to keep cells in a CSLM and when 
to do an in memory compaction and keep cells in serialized format within 
memory.  
On general this is the concern.

Our initial design did not include new flush API. Following the comment by 
[~Apache9] from July 30 and the discussion preceding it we introduced new APIs 
one for disk flush and one for in-memory flush. 
In hind-sight, we believe this comment was in place, and making in-memory flush 
a first-class-citizen is the right decision. 
Whether or not a new API is required, making an in-memory flush must involve 
decisions at a higher level, specifically using the region updatesLock while 
moving data around inside the memstore, as is the case with disk flush - and 
for good reason.

[~eshcar]  Looking at Duo comments in this issue, he seems to be arguing the 
same as [~anoop.hbase] above, that in-memory compaction -- when and how -- 
should be done inside the MemStore implementation only. If I go back to July 
30, he allows you have a point but even then is hoping you can keep logic 
contained.

bq. making an in-memory flush must involve decisions at a higher level

The justification for the involvement of higher levels making decision on when 
to flush is that the updatesLock needs to be held. What if the MemStore had 
reference to the updatesLock? Would it then have all it needs to make decision 
on when to compact and the means for doing it?

Do you have other examples of where the decision needs to be made at a higher 
level outside the bounds of the MemStore Implementation?

Let me take a look at the RB patch.

Does the design as is apply to the patch posted or has there been some drift?

Thanks.

Eshcar Hillel commented on HBASE-13408:

The updatesLock affects the performance of the entire region; holding it in 
exclusive mode should be reduced to the minimum possible time. Therefore, 
holding it exclusively is a decision to make at the region level. In our design 
we were very careful not to introduce any additional locks, and also not to 
introduce new code that acquires existing locks let alone in exclusive mode. We 
believe this design choice is imperative for keeping the overall performance of 
the system.

w.r.t. setting MemStore class per column family, can you add test(s) where 
table has 2 column families, one with traditional MemStore class, one with 
compacted MemStore class ?

Thanks

Eshcar Hillel commented on HBASE-13408:

We were able to find the cause of the TestHRegion failure.
There were some changes to the code implementing memstore scans that were 
applied to the default memstore scanner. In master this code resides in the 
DefaultMemStore.java file, while in our patch we extracted this code into a 
different file MutableCellSetSegmentScanner.java. 
This case demonstrates the fact that in such a major refactoring Jira tracking 
all relevant changes when rebasing is very hard to do, we are at a risk of such 
changes occurring each time we rebase. 

For a long time now there were no serious discussion regarding the contribution 
of this Jira and the fundamental ideas at the base of the code.
What are the main reasons holding this Jira from being pushed into master?

Eshcar Hillel commented on HBASE-13408:

Following a comment in the Jira the compacted memstore configuration is now 
disconnected from the in-memory column family configuration setting; instead it 
can be set at the region server level by setting the memstore class name 
attribute. We are open to suggestions on how it would be best to set the 
memstore at each region, and specifically to add an additional column family 
attribute.

In parallel, we should discuss the optimal way to push this branch into trunk 
after we've handled all major concerns that were raised so far.

Eshcar is OOO now, and since she started the review board, we could only post 
the new patch to a new board. We'll post early next week. 
There is no big difference between v5 and v6, v6 was to catch up with trunk.

bq. Under which scenario(s) would this method be inefficient ?
When the memstore needs to build the Cell Set by traversing all cells in the 
segment.

bq. I thought the compaction pipeline would generate immutable segments ?
You are right, this is a typo in the document. The compaction pipeline can 
generate different type of *immutable* segments like HFile format.

bq. Would the above be done in a future patch or different JIRA ?
Yes, we believe it should be implemented as a different task.

The new internal API demonstrates how future segment formats can fit in (e.g., 
in-memory HFile for compact format, as suggested by [~anoop.hbase]). The last 
patch also addresses most of the comments raised by the recent code reviews. 

Dear community - please help with evaluating this feature with more 
benchmarks/use cases, in parallel with code reviews. 

Thanks in advance.

Ted Yu commented on HBASE-13408:


bq. getCellSet() which can be very inefficient.

Under which scenario(s) would this method be inefficient ?

bq. The compaction pipeline may generate different type of mutable segments.

I thought the compaction pipeline would generate immutable segments ?

bq. HStoreFileScanner can be refactored to implement StoreSegmentScanner

Would the above be done in a future patch or different JIRA ?

Question on re-using the in-memory attribute: let’s imagine the use case of an 
online cart where people keep adding, deleting, updating quantity before 
submitting the order. That use case will love this patch. But if we also have 
some processes doing daily or weekly statistics, or simply users performing 
“what did I buy over the last 6 months”, but very infrequently, this will 
trigger population of old data in block cache with in-memory stickiness, even 
if the use case going back in time are not important enough to consume valuable 
block cache resources with in-memory stickiness?

We did our homework to address [~anoop.hbase]'s and [~mbertozzi]'s concerns. 
In-memory HFile's are absolutely possible to implement. The challenge with the 
current implementation is that the StoreFile implementation is too tightly 
coupled with HDFS whereas it could be associated with byte stream just as well. 
Most of the code is FS-independent, however some accurate refactoring and a 
couple of new abstractions would be required. Our concern is that this code is 
already a bulk, and further expanding it only increases the risk. Would it make 
sense do the following: (1) start reviewing and checking-in the existing code, 
either in one bulk or piecemeal, and (2) in parallel, design, implement and 
evaluate in-memory HFile's, either in a separate jira or as subtask in this 
jira. This could be just one more patch in the series.

Anoop Sam John commented on HBASE-13408:


The in memory memstore compaction help us in many ways. I think the one in your 
use case is where data is constantly updated. So the in memory compaction can 
remove old cells.  One more thing is it can allow us to use much bigger 
memstore size and hold more cells in memory. The CSLM having perf impact when 
the #entries in it increases. So if we have in mem compaction in btw, we can 
overcome this limitation.
bq.one other thing I was expecting was that the compacted version of the 
memstore was written as an in-memory hfile, so we can have leverage stuff like 
compression and encoding. but from the code looks like the compacted version 
(memstore segment?) is just another skiplist
This is the concern I also have which I raised in some older comments.  If we 
can do this, we can help all kind of use cases where the update of cells not 
happening. The CSLM each entry having some heap size overhead which we can 
avoid.

Also the in mem compaction memstore is a kind of memstore impl. Now after the 
memstore is pluggable memstore interface impl way, we can have any kind of 
impl. So I was expecting all the things for decision of in mem compaction, how 
it happens etc etc to keep as an impl detail of memstore.  So from outside no 
changes as such required for this. It will be ugly if we have to change outside 
to support an in mem compacting memstore.

[~mbertozzi] we absolutely agree that there is a room for more optimizations. 
We strived to demonstrate a minimum viable implementation, and this is already 
a big patch. The published performance results show benefits for both random 
access and scan patterns, for a variety of data distributions. Admittedly, we 
were more after speed than memory optimization. 

Re/ the concrete questions:
1. HFile implementation for memstore segments. Very plausible (in fact, the 
internal API's allow to plug in this implementation quite easily). 
2. Automatic memstore compaction (not only in-memory families). Our thinking 
was to let the system administrator remain in control of what is happening, so 
we introduced this limitation. Could be relaxed in the future. 

Thanks for all the feedback. We are open to discussion and adjustments that 
would eventually lead this feature to HBase mainstream.

Matteo Bertozzi commented on HBASE-13408:
-

some general comment on the design:

The doc says something like we apply memstore compaction only to in-memory 
families, because we may end up with compacting something that has no 
updates/deletes.
but, in theory it should be easy to know if we have updates and deletes. since 
we have a skiplist, when we insert we can check if the previous record is the 
same key is an update/delete. so we end up with 2 counters of how many updates 
and deletes we have and we can apply a logic like if (update/delete - insert) 
 40% do a memstore compact otherwise flush on disk.
given the above, we don't really need to have the compaction running randomly, 
we can start the compaction on flush if necessary.

one other thing I was expecting was that the compacted version of the memstore 
was written as an in-memory hfile, so we can have leverage stuff like 
compression and encoding. but from the code looks like the compacted version 
(memstore segment?) is just another skiplist.

can you expand more on why you ended up with the current implementation? what 
are the benefit and so on.

Then how about we’ll make use of the FlushPolicy abstraction that is written so 
nicely and is easy to extend ;-).
We can add to it a method selectStoresToCompact(), so that a flush process 
manages 2 sets to reduce memory usage (1) stores to flush (2) stores to be 
compacted. A store is in either of the two sets or in none, but not in both of 
them. The decision whether reducing the memory usage is done by a flush or a 
compaction depends on the store type and state.
In addition, we’ll add a method to the MemStore interface 
doInmemoryCompaction(). In compacted memstore the implementation of this method 
would be to push the active set into the compaction pipeline and invoke a 
compaction.

With this solution the semantics of prepare-to-flush remains the same.

Thank you [~Apache9] and [~anoop.hbase] for your comments.

There is a question of when to push the active set into the pipeline, and which 
threshold to use. This should be some configurable parameter. But please let’s 
put this aside for a minute.
The problem I meant to handle with the WAL truncation mechanism is orthogonal 
to this decision. Consider a region with one compacting store. Assume we add 
the following key-value-ts tuples to the memstore:
(A,1,1) (A,4,4) (A,7,7)
(B,2,2) (B,5,5) (B,8,8)
(C,3,3) (C,6,6) (C,9,9)
All these items will have edits in the WAL. After compaction what is left 
in-memory are
(A,7,7) (B,8,8) (C,9,9)
however these edits are not removed from the WAL since no flushing occurs.
This can go on and on without ever flushing data to disk and without removing 
WAL edits.
The solution we suggested earlier is to have a small map that would help 
determine that after the compaction in the example above we can remove all WAL 
entries that correspond to ts equal or lower than 6. And it happens not within 
the scope of a flush as compaction is a background process. 
If we don’t change the WAL truncation in this way WAL can grow without limit.

Supporting a more compacted format in the compaction pipeline was discussed 
when we just started this JIRA. The design we suggested enables plugging-in any 
data structure: it can be the CellBlocks by [~anoop.hbase], it can be a b-tree, 
or any alternative that is suggested in HBASE-3993. It only needs to support 
the API defined by the CellSkipListSet wrapper class (in our patch we changed 
its name to CellSet to indicate the implementation is not restricted to a 
skip-list).
Having said that, we would like to keep the initial solution simple. The 
plug-in infrastructure is in; experimenting with different data structures can 
be allocated a different task.

Coming back to the timing of the in-memory flush, since this action mandates 
the same synchronization as in a flush to disk (to block the updaters while 
allocating a new active set) it seems appropriate to apply it upon a disk 
flush. 
Moreover, if we don’t change the flush semantics a compacting memstore can be 
forced to flush to disk when it reaches 16M (I can show an example) which would 
countervail the benefits of this feature.

 A store unit holds a column family in a region, where the memstore is its 
 in-memory component. The memstore absorbs all updates to the store; from time 
 to time these updates are flushed to a file on disk, where they are 
 compacted. Unlike disk components, the memstore is not compacted until it is 
 written to the filesystem and optionally to block-cache. This may result in 
 underutilization of the memory due to duplicate entries per row, for example, 
 when hot data is continuously updated. 
 Generally, the faster the data is accumulated in memory, more flushes are 
 triggered, the data sinks to disk more frequently, slowing down retrieval of 
 data, even if very recent.
 In high-churn workloads, compacting the memstore can help maintain the data 
 in memory, and thereby speed up data retrieval. 
 We suggest a new compacted memstore with the following principles:
 1.The data is kept in memory for as long as possible
 2.Memstore data is either compacted or in process of being compacted 
 3.Allow a panic mode, which may interrupt an in-progress compaction and 
 force a flush of part of the memstore.
 We suggest applying this optimization only to in-memory column families.
 A design document is attached.
 This feature was previously discussed in HBASE-5311.

OK, I get your point. After a memstore compaction we may drop some old cells so 
set a new value of the {{oldestUnflushedSeqId}} in WAL is reasonable. And yes, 
this can avoid WAL triggers a flush for log truncating under your cases.

But I still think you can find a way to set it without changing the semantics 
of flush... Flush is a very critical operation in HBase so you should keep away 
from it as much as possible unless you have to...

Or a more difficult way, remove the old flush operation and introduce some new 
operations such as reduce your memory usage and persist old cells and so 
on. You can put your compaction logic in the reduce your memory usage 
operation.

Thanks.

Things we talking here are all 'In Memory', so I do not think we need to modify 
WAL...

I think all the logic could be down in a special memstore implementation? For 
example, you can set the flush-size to 128M, and introduce a compact-size which 
only consider the active set size to 32M. When you find the active set reaches 
32M then you put it into pipeline and try to compact segments in pipeline to 
reduce memory usage. The upper layer does not care about how many segments you 
have, it only cares about the total memstore size. If it reaches 128M then a 
flush request is coming, then you should flush all data to disk. If there are 
many redundant cells then the total memstore will never reaches 128M, I think 
this is exactly what we want here? And this way you do not change the semantic 
of flush, the log truncating should also work as well.

And I think you can use some more compact data structures instead of skip list 
since the segments in pipeline are read only? This may bring some benefits even 
if we do not have many redundant cells.

What do you think? [~eshcar]. Sorry a bit late. Thanks.

I did some learning of the flush-by-column-family feature (HBASE-10201). I 
think it will help us in supporting WAL truncation in compacting memstore. 
[~Apache9] I would appreciate if you can confirm that this should work.

In the current implementation, when a region flushes a store, the previous 
sequence id that was associated with this store in the WAL 
oldestUnflushedStoreSequenceIds set is removed. The first put operation to 
occur after the flush installs a new sequence id for the store.
The WAL uses this bookeeping when it needs to decide which WAL files can be 
archived (WAL truncation).

For compacting memstore we would like to keep the sequence id in the 
oldestUnflushedStoreSequenceIds set of the WAL even after a flush is invoked. 
Instead, the memstore compaction thread will be responsible for setting an 
approximation of the correct sequence id for the store in the set.
To this end, the compacting memstore maintains a mapping of timestamp to region 
sequence number (the same sequence numbers that are attached to WAL edits). 
Whenever a flush is invoked on a compacting memstore it adds the current time 
and current sequence number pair to this mapping. 
As an additional artifact of the memstore compaction the minimal timestamp that 
is still present in the memstore is computed. This timestamp is then used to 
identify the maximal sequence id in the timestamp-seqId mapping for which no 
entries are left in the memstore. Finally, it uses this approximated sequence 
number to update the oldestUnflushedStoreSequenceIds set.

This way the WAL is being truncated with some delay with respect to the real 
sequence number, but the memory overhead if fairly small (only a small map of 
ts-seq is added to the memstore) when compared to a solution that adds a 
sequence number to each cell in the memstore and then uses it to find the 
*exact* oldest unflushed sequence id.

What say you?

So here , in order to use a bigger memstore and keep more data in memory, no 
need for change in memstore size (flush size).  That flush will try keeping the 
cells for some more time in memory. So when one model the memstore sizing and 
deciding on the #regions to keep in a node, how can he safely decide?
After in memory compaction, we will make one buffer of memory where the cell's 
data is serialized as plain bytes?

Is your first concern ``how can an admin safely decide on the number of region 
per region server if the memory trace of a region may be bigger than flush 
size?''
First, this can happen also with default memstore implementation, and for this 
reason the blocking flush size is defined, and we make sure not to cross this 
upper limit even with compacted memstore implementation.
Second, while less trivial, it is still possible to come up with a reasonable 
computation if you have an upper limit on the number of regions with compacted 
memstore at any point in time.

Regarding you second question, the compaction pipeline is composed of memstore 
segments (1 or more). Each memstore segment has a cell set, currently this is 
the same data structure as in the active segment, namely a skip list. If found 
useful it is possible to change the format in which the cells are stored in the 
pipeline after compaction.

[~anoop.hbase] I hope to answer your questions.

Snapshot active set and the pipeline components are all memstore segments, it's 
an abstraction that allows to treat all these parts equally.

The memstore compaction should work also with flush-by-column-family. However, 
even when flushing by column the WAL sequence id is defined per region (right?) 
so WAL truncation is not trivial.

forceflushsize is not a new config, instead we take the average of flush size 
and the blocking flush size: flush-size  forceflushsize  blockingflushsize.
When considering a flush-by-column-family mode, if the active segment is 
greater than flush size then flush is invoked and the active segment is pushed 
to the pipeline. If the active +pipeline segments are greater the 
forceflushsize then the flush is forced and snapshot is flushed to disk.

All entries (active, pipeline, snapshot) are stored in a skip-list. The 
performance gain comes from accessing only memory and not the disk. The skip 
lists are not too large as multiple versions of the same key are removed within 
the compacted pipeline, but are not too small either, e.g., active is pushed to 
pipeline only when it gets to 128MB.

When there is no duplication, i.e., a large set of active keys and no multiple 
versions per active key compaction is of no help, data is flushed to disk 
anyway but the compaction pipeline consumes memory and cpu. We don't see slow 
down in our experiments but in a setting where the memory/cpu resources are 
limited and contended for might show slow down.

I left some comments on rb but should have read the design first.

I read the design and had these few questions (design is nicely written):

FYI, Flush-by-column-family is on by default in 1.2 HBase. Will you need to do 
anything to accommodate this?

You say In high­churn workloads, compacting the memstore can help maintain the 
data in memory, and thereby speed up data retrieval The pipeline entries are 
still skiplists sets? What is the compacted representation? Is it still a 
skiplist? Skip list is slow especially as we get large. Was wondering if you 
saw any speedup if only because you have many small skip lists rather than one 
big one?

Therefore, we suggest applying this optimization only to in­memory column 
families. In testing you find that the overhead slows us down?

I asked in rb what threading model was? Is there a new thread per Store 
memstore? 

Is the new force­flush­size a new config? I wasn't following why we need it? If 
size of current Set + pipeline is above max size, flush? I wasn't clear on why 
the need of 2.5.

Is memstoresegment our old snapshot? it has other facility beyond old snapshot?

Thanks

Numbers look great. On 1., we used to have a mechanism for figuring which 
region had oldest outstanding edits. That no longer works? I need to understand

 A store unit holds a column family in a region, where the memstore is its 
 in-memory component. The memstore absorbs all updates to the store; from time 
 to time these updates are flushed to a file on disk, where they are 
 compacted. Unlike disk components, the memstore is not compacted until it is 
 written to the filesystem and optionally to block-cache. This may result in 
 underutilization of the memory due to duplicate entries per row, for example, 
 when hot data is continuously updated. 
 Generally, the faster the data is accumulated in memory, more flushes are 
 triggered, the data sinks to disk more frequently, slowing down retrieval of 
 data, even if very recent.
 In high-churn workloads, compacting the memstore can help maintain the data 
 in memory, and thereby speed up data retrieval. 
 We suggest a new compacted memstore with the following principles:
 1.The data is kept in memory for as long as possible
 2.Memstore data is either compacted or in process of being compacted 
 3.Allow a panic mode, which may interrupt an in-progress compaction and 
 force a flush of part of the memstore.
 We suggest applying this optimization only to in-memory column families.
 A design document is attached.
 This feature was previously discussed in HBASE-5311.

Hi - we are back with an implementation of the basic feature (see link to the 
review board for the HBASE-13408-098 code), and some experimental results. We 
were able to show 30-65% performance gain for read accesses in high-churn 
workloads (comprising of 50% reads and 50% writes), and mainly to maintain 
predictable latency SLA (see performance evaluation document for full results). 
We’ve also adapted the design document to reflect the code, specifically 
renaming some classes and describing the changes we made in the region flushing 
policy. (see design document ver02).

A comment and a request: we’ve yet to address the WAL truncating issue.
The problem is twofold:
(1) if the region comprises only an in-memory column (store) then flush may not 
occur for a long time resulting in a big log which in turn may significantly 
increase MTTR. This is bad.
(2) if the in-memory column (store) is part of a region with default stores 
then flushes do occur, and the WAL truncates even entries it should not. 
Specifically it truncate entries of the in-memory store that are still present 
in the memstore, that is, not eliminated by compaction and not flushed to disk. 
This is a real threat to HBase durability guarantees.

The same solution can help avoid both problems. Currently the WAL uses a region 
counter to mark the entries as well as to decide which entries are truncable. 
However, the memstore is unaware of these sequence numbers and therefore cannot 
indicate which WAL entries should not be truncated.
We would like to come up with a mechanism that allows the memstore and WAL to 
share the minimal required information in order to ensure the data durability. 
We’d appreciate suggestions/insights.

Thank you [~zhangduo] for raising the important WAL truncating issue and 
[~lhofhansl] and [~stack] for raising the components format issue. These two 
issues should definitely be addressed in our solution. 
1.  When the memstore compactor completes a compaction it can inquire the 
resulting component for the oldest record sequence id, and use it to apply WAL 
truncation. This might not be good enough in all scenarios, in which case the 
memstore should get into a panic mode and do a real flush. So there are several 
triggers for entering a panic mode, one relates to the memstore size and the 
other relates to the WAL size. 
2.  The CellSetMgr and CellSetScanner abstractions we suggested should 
allow for easy support of any cell storage format. Specifically, the active set 
can use a skip-list to absorb the updates and the compactor can generate 
b-trees or any other cache friendly format. We can use a Factory pattern for 
this purpose.

There is no technical challenge in making this feature available for all column 
families; however, we believe in-memory columns have better chance of 
benefiting from it while in the general case this memstore could put a burden 
on the region server. If you believe this has the potential to improve 
performance also in other scenarios there is no reason not to make it a first 
citizen column type. 

A CellSetMgr, as explained above, is an abstraction of the cell set storage, be 
it skip list or a b-tree, w/o SLAB, compressed or not, and any other details 
that should be encapsulated and de-coupled from the users of these objects.

HBASE-5311 suggested using an RCU-like mechanism to protect the components 
(layers) of the memstore as they shift around, and also applied a freezing 
phase. Our solution uses the existing sync mechanism to push the component into 
the pipeline. Once the component is in the pipeline it is read-only, therefore 
can be accessed without using locks. The only part we might need to protect is 
when we swap the subset of pipeline components with the new single compacted 
component. This should be as easy as changing a pointer and can use an RCU as 
well. When no protection is applied a concurrent reader can miss this swap then 
it goes through the “old” components, which is more expensive but is still 
correct.
 
Shifting a component from the pipeline to the snapshot should be the same as 
shifting it from active set to snapshot (as it is done today).

All sounds good [~eshcar]

bq. If you believe this has the potential to improve performance also in other 
scenarios there is no reason not to make it a first citizen column type.

We should go with your suggestion and make it an in-memory only facility first. 
Then if we have numbers to show it a general benefit, only then turn it on 
everywhere.

There is the panic mode for any case when flush is a must. We will improve the

 A store unit holds a column family in a region, where the memstore is its 
 in-memory component. The memstore absorbs all updates to the store; from time 
 to time these updates are flushed to a file on disk, where they are 
 compacted. Unlike disk components, the memstore is not compacted until it is 
 written to the filesystem and optionally to block-cache. This may result in 
 underutilization of the memory due to duplicate entries per row, for example, 
 when hot data is continuously updated. 
 Generally, the faster the data is accumulated in memory, more flushes are 
 triggered, the data sinks to disk more frequently, slowing down retrieval of 
 data, even if very recent.
 In high-churn workloads, compacting the memstore can help maintain the data 
 in memory, and thereby speed up data retrieval. 
 We suggest a new compacted memstore with the following principles:
 1.The data is kept in memory for as long as possible
 2.Memstore data is either compacted or in process of being compacted 
 3.Allow a panic mode, which may interrupt an in-progress compaction and 
 force a flush of part of the memstore.
 We suggest applying this optimization only to in-memory column families.
 A design document is attached.
 This feature was previously discussed in HBASE-5311.

In the doc it says the proposal is for in-memory column families only and may 
not be generally unless there are lots of instances of Cells at exact same 
coordinates. But as Lars says above, the memstore is a costly data structure 
for keeping all in-memory state sorted; a compacted version that was hfile 
sorted could make for better perf than the skiplist (as speculated over in 
HBASE-5311).

Other comments:

bq. The data is kept in memory for as long as possible

What Duo says above...We need to flush to free up WALs to contain our 
WAL-burden of edits to replay on crash.

bq. pull the last component of the compaction pipeline and shift it to snapshot

What is involved running above step?

bq. CellSetMgr

What is one of these? It is a skiplist?

What do you think of the attempt at lockless snapshotting suggested over in 
HBASE-5311

Thanks for taking this up

Looks good.

And a little hint, log truncating is also an important purpose of doing flush. 
So if you keep some data in memstore for a long time, then there will be lots 
of WALs that can not be truncated and increase MTTR. So if the flush request 
comes from LogRoller, then you should enter the panic mode and flush the 
memstore(Maybe you have already known but I haven't seen log truncating things 
in your design doc so just put it here :) )

And I remember that xiaomi said they have a 'HLog reform' feature which can 
solve this problem in their private version of HBase, but seems they have not 
donated to community yet.

Why not continue on HBASE-5311? In any case, good to pick this topic up again!

Some comments/questions:
* [~Apache9] the memstore (by default) will limit the maximum time of any edit 
in the memstore to 1h. So that should be OK.
* The in-memstore compaction has to be SLAB aware or we'll get horrible 
fragmentation issues (maybe that's what you meant with MAB on the doc)
* A skiplist is actually a bad data structure when it comes to cache line 
locality. The HFile format is much better. So if the data is compacted anyway, 
might as well write it in HFile format, that would also allow to write that to 
disk later.
* If the compactions will simply remove expired KVs, it will likely make 
things worse. (that was also my initial thought on HBASE-5311, but it will not 
work)
