-----------------------------------
Thanks [~BINGXUE QIU] for your proposal!
I am certainly +1 on the proposal. It would give people more choice in terms of
what they want to use as their storage backend. The HBase backend is chosen
primarily for its scalability, and the basic data is more about OLTP than OLAP.
The OLAP side of things would be implemented via Phoenix offline aggregation.
We tried our best to be pluggable when it comes to swapping storage backends,
but no doubt there are places where the HBase details leak. We would need to
address them together. As Junping mentioned, I also look forward to a more
detailed proposal.
The group that's working closely on the timeline service v2. has weekly status
calls, but the timing might not work out well for you. Please do reach out to
me via email to see how we can work more closely.
> Add druid as storage backend in YARN Timeline Service
> ------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: YARN-5814
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-5814
> Project: Hadoop YARN
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: ATSv2
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0-alpha2
> Reporter: Bingxue Qiu
>
> h3. Introduction
> I propose to add druid as storage backend in YARN Timeline Service.
> We run more than 6000 applications and generate 450 million metrics daily in
> Alibaba Clusters with thousands of nodes. We need to collect and store
> meta/events/metrics data, online analyze the utilization reports of various
> dimensions and display the trends of allocation/usage resources for cluster
> by joining and aggregating data. It helps us to manage and optimize the
> cluster by tracking resource utilization.
> To achieve our goal we have changed to use druid as the storage instead of
> HBase and have achieved sub-second OLAP performance in our production
> environment for few months.
> h3. Analysis
> Currently YARN Timeline Service only supports aggregating metrics at a) flow
> level by FlowRunCoprocessor and b) application level metrics aggregating by
> AppLevelTimelineCollector, offline (time-based periodic) aggregation for
> flows/users/queues for reporting and analysis is planned but not yet
> implemented. YARN Timeline Service chooses Apache HBase as the primary
> storage backend. As we all know that HBase doesn't fit for OLAP.
> For arbitrary exploration of data,such as online analyze the utilization
> reports of various dimensions(Queue,Flow,Users,Application,CPU,Memory) by
> joining and aggregating data, Druid's custom column format enables ad-hoc
> queries without pre-computation. The format also enables fast scans on
> columns, which is important for good aggregation performance.
> To achieve our goal that support to online analyze the utilization reports of
> various dimensions, display the variation trends of allocation/usage
> resources for cluster, and arbitrary exploration of data, we propose to add
> druid storage and implement DruidWriter /DruidReader in YARN Timeline Service.
