- 2. Who Are We Yu Peng Data Engineer at Databricks Building Databricks’ next-generation data pipeline on top of Apache Spark BS in Xiamen University Ph.D in The University of Hong Kong Burak Yavuz Software Engineer at Databricks Contributor to Spark since Spark 1.1 Maintainer of Spark Packages BS in Mechanical Engineering at Bogazici University MS in Management Science & Engineering at Stanford University
- 3. Building a data pipeline is hard • At least once or exactly once semantics • Fault tolerance • Resource management • Scalability • Maintainability
- 4. Apache® Spark™ + Databricks = Our Solution • All ETL jobs are built on top of Apache Spark • Unified solution, everything in the same place • All ETL jobs are run on Databricks platform • Platform for Data Engineers and Scientists • Test out Spark and Databricks new features Apache, Apache Spark and Spark are trademarks of the Apache Software Foundation

- 16. Sync Daemon • Read from Kinesis and Write to DBFS • Buffer and write in batches (128 MB or 5 Mins) • Partitioned by date • A long running Apache Spark job • Easy to scale up and down 16
- 17. Databricks Deployment ETL Jobs Databricks Filesystem No dedup Append Dedup Overwrite 17 New files Current day All files Previous day Databricks Jobs Delta job (every 10 mins) Batch job (daily) Raw records Databricks Filesystem ETL Tables (Parquet)
- 18. ETL Jobs • Use the same code for Delta and Batch jobs • Run as scheduled Databricks jobs • Use spot instances and fallback to on-demand • Deliver to Databricks as parquet tables
- 19. Lessons Learned - Partition Pruning can save a lot of time and money Reduced query time from 2800 seconds to just 15 seconds. Don’t partition too many levels as it leads to worse metadata discovery performance and cost. 19
- 20. Lessons Learned - High S3 costs: Lots of LIST Requests Metadata discovery on S3 is expensive. Spark SQL tries to refresh it’s metadata cache even after write operations. 20

- 23. Data Analysis & Tools We get the data in. What’s next? ● Monitoring ● Debugging ● Usage Analysis ● Product Design (A/B testing) 23
- 24. Debugging Access to logs in a matter of seconds thanks to Apache Spark. 24
- 25. Monitoring Monitor logs by log level. Bug introduced on 2016-05-26 01:00:00 UTC. Fix deployed in 2 hours. 25
- 26. Usage Analysis + Product Design SparkR + ggplot2 = Match made in heaven 26
- 27. Summary Databricks + Apache Spark create a unified platform for: - ETL - Data Warehousing - Data Analysis - Real time analytics Issues with DevOps out of the question: - No need to manage a huge cluster - Jobs are isolated, they don’t cannibalize each other’s resources - Can launch any Spark version
- 28. Ongoing & Future Work Structured Streaming - Reduce Complexity of pipeline: Sync Daemon + Delta + Batch Jobs => Single Streaming Job - Reduce Latency Availability of data in seconds instead of minutes - Event Time Dashboards 28
