Todays data analytics frameworks are compute-centric, with analytics execution almost entirely dependent on the pre-determined physical structure of the high-level computation. Relegating intermediate data to a second class entity in this manner hurts flexibility, performance, and efficiency. We present Whiz, a new analytics framework that cleanly separates computation from intermediate data. It enables runtime visibility into data via programmable monitoring, and data-driven computation (where intermediate data values drive when/what computation runs) via an event abstraction. Experiments with a Whiz prototype on a large cluster using batch, streaming, and graph analytics workloads show that its performance is 1.3-2x better than state-of-the-art.

FPGA-based data processing in datacenters is increasing in popularity due to the demands of modern workloads and the ensuing necessity for specialization in hardware. Driven by this trend, vendors are rapidly adapting reconfigurable devices to suit d ata and compute intensive workloads. Inclusion of High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) in FPGA devices is a recent example. HBM promises overcoming the bandwidth bottleneck, faced often by FPGA-based accelerators due to their throughput oriented design. In this paper, we study the usage and benefits of HBM on FPGAs from a data analytics perspective. We consider three workloads that are often performed in analytics oriented databases and implement them on FPGA showing in which cases they benefit from HBM: range selection, hash join, and stochastic gradient descent for linear model training. We integrate our designs into a columnar database (MonetDB) and show the trade-offs arising from the integration related to data movement and partitioning. In certain cases, FPGA+HBM based solutions are able to surpass the highest performance provided by either a 2-socket POWER9 system or a 14-core XeonE5 by up to 1.8x (selection), 12.9x (join), and 3.2x (SGD).
Understanding and tuning the performance of extreme-scale parallel computing systems demands a streaming approach due to the computational cost of applying offline algorithms to vast amounts of performance log data. Analyzing large streaming data is challenging because the rate of receiving data and limited time to comprehend data make it difficult for the analysts to sufficiently examine the data without missing important changes or patterns. To support streaming data analysis, we introduce a visual analytic framework comprising of three modules: data management, analysis, and interactive visualization. The data management module collects various computing and communication performance metrics from the monitored system using streaming data processing techniques and feeds the data to the other two modules. The analysis module automatically identifies important changes and patterns at the required latency. In particular, we introduce a set of online and progressive analysis methods for not only controlling the computational costs but also helping analysts better follow the critical aspects of the analysis results. Finally, the interactive visualization module provides the analysts with a coherent view of the changes and patterns in the continuously captured performance data. Through a multi-faceted case study on performance analysis of parallel discrete-event simulation, we demonstrate the effectiveness of our framework for identifying bottlenecks and locating outliers.

Data analytics applications transform raw input data into analytics-specific data structures before performing analytics. Unfortunately, such data ingestion step is often more expensive than analytics. In addition, various types of NVRAM devices are already used in many HPC systems today. Such devices will be useful for storing and reusing data structures beyond a single process life cycle. We developed Metall, a persistent memory allocator built on top of the memory-mapped file mechanism. Metall enables applications to transparently allocate custom C++ data structures into various types of persistent memories. Metall incorporates a concise and high-performance memory management algorithm inspired by Supermalloc and the rich C++ interface developed by Boost.Interprocess library. On a dynamic graph construction workload, Metall achieved up to 11.7x and 48.3x performance improvements over Boost.Interprocess and memkind (PMEM kind), respectively. We also demonstrate Metalls high adaptability by integrating Metall into a graph processing framework, GraphBLAS Template Library. This studys outcomes indicate that Metall will be a strong tool for accelerating future large-scale data analytics by allowing applications to leverage persistent memory efficiently.
Storage and memory systems for modern data analytics are heavily layered, managing shared persistent data, cached data, and non-shared execution data in separate systems such as distributed file system like HDFS, in-memory file system like Alluxio an d computation framework like Spark. Such layering introduces significant performance and management costs for copying data across layers redundantly and deciding proper resource allocation for all layers. In this paper we propose a single system called Pangea that can manage all data---both intermediate and long-lived data, and their buffer/caching, data placement optimization, and failure recovery---all in one monolithic storage system, without any layering. We present a detailed performance evaluation of Pangea and show that its performance compares favorably with several widely used layered systems such as Spark.
Federated Learning allows remote centralized server training models without to access the data stored in distributed (edge) devices. Most work assume the data generated from edge devices is identically and independently sampled from a common populati on distribution. However, such ideal sampling may not be realistic in many contexts where edge devices correspond to units in variable context. Also, models based on intrinsic agency, such as active sampling schemes, may lead to highly biased sampling. So an imminent question is how robust Federated Learning is to biased sampling? In this work, we investigate two such scenarios. First, we study Federated Learning of a classifier from data with edge device class distribution heterogeneity. Second, we study Federated Learning of a classifier with active sampling at the edge. We present evidence in both scenarios, that federated learning is robust to data heterogeneity.
