The need for modern data analytics to combine relational, procedural, and map-reduce-style functional processing is widely recognized. State-of-the-art systems like Spark have added SQL front-ends and relational query optimization, which promise an increase in expressiveness and performance. But how good are these extensions at extracting high performance from modern hardware platforms? While Spark has made impressive progress, we show that for relational workloads, there is still a significant gap compared with best-of-breed query engines. And when stepping outside of the relational world, query optimization techniques are ineffective if large parts of a computation have to be treated as user-defined functions (UDFs). We present Flare: a new back-end for Spark that brings performance closer to the best SQL engines, without giving up the added expressiveness of Spark. We demonstrate order of magnitude speedups both for relational workloads such as TPC-H, as well as for a range of machine learning kernels that combine relational and iterative functional processing. Flare achieves these results through (1) compilation to native code, (2) replacing parts of the Spark runtime system, and (3) extending the scope of optimization and code generation to large classes of UDFs.

We propose TRANSMUT-Spark, a tool that automates the mutation testing process of Big Data processing code within Spark programs. Apache Spark is an engine for Big Data Processing. It hides the complexity inherent to Big Data parallel and distributed programming and processing through built-in functions, underlying parallel processes, and data management strategies. Nonetheless, programmers must cleverly combine these functions within programs and guide the engine to use the right data management strategies to exploit the large number of computational resources required by Big Data processing and avoid substantial production losses. Many programming details in data processing code within Spark programs are prone to false statements that need to be correctly and automatically tested. This paper explores the application of mutation testing in Spark programs, a fault-based testing technique that relies on fault simulation to evaluate and design test sets. The paper introduces the TRANSMUT-Spark solution for testing Spark programs. TRANSMUT-Spark automates the most laborious steps of the process and fully executes the mutation testing process. The paper describes how the tool automates the mutants generation, test execution, and adequacy analysis phases of mutation testing with TRANSMUT-Spark. It also discusses the results of experiments that were carried out to validate the tool to argue its scope and limitations.
The objective of this work was to utilize BigBench [1] as a Big Data benchmark and evaluate and compare two processing engines: MapReduce [2] and Spark [3]. MapReduce is the established engine for processing data on Hadoop. Spark is a popular alterna tive engine that promises faster processing times than the established MapReduce engine. BigBench was chosen for this comparison because it is the first end-to-end analytics Big Data benchmark and it is currently under public review as TPCx-BB [4]. One of our goals was to evaluate the benchmark by performing various scalability tests and validate that it is able to stress test the processing engines. First, we analyzed the steps necessary to execute the available MapReduce implementation of BigBench [1] on Spark. Then, all the 30 BigBench queries were executed on MapReduce/Hive with different scale factors in order to see how the performance changes with the increase of the data size. Next, the group of HiveQL queries were executed on Spark SQL and compared with their respective Hive runtimes. This report gives a detailed overview on how to setup an experimental Hadoop cluster and execute BigBench on both Hive and Spark SQL. It provides the absolute times for all experiments preformed for different scale factors as well as query results which can be used to validate correct benchmark execution. Additionally, multiple issues and workarounds were encountered and solved during our work. An evaluation of the resource utilization (CPU, memory, disk and network usage) of a subset of representative BigBench queries is presented to illustrate the behavior of the different query groups on both processing engines. Last but not least it is important to mention that larger parts of this report are taken from the master thesis of Max-Georg Beer, entitled Evaluation of BigBench on Apache Spark Compared to MapReduce [5].
Emerging data analysis involves the ingestion and exploration of new data sets, application of complex functions, and frequent query revisions based on observing prior query answers. We call this new type of analysis evolutionary analytics and identi fy its properties. This type of analysis is not well represented by current benchmark workloads. In this paper, we present a workload and identify several metrics to test system support for evolutionary analytics. Along with our metrics, we present methodologies for running the workload that capture this analytical scenario.
The CERN IT provides a set of Hadoop clusters featuring more than 5 PBytes of raw storage with different open-source, user-level tools available for analytical purposes. The CMS experiment started collecting a large set of computing meta-data, e.g. d ataset, file access logs, since 2015. These records represent a valuable, yet scarcely investigated, set of information that needs to be cleaned, categorized and analyzed. CMS can use this information to discover useful patterns and enhance the overall efficiency of the distributed data, improve CPU and site utilization as well as tasks completion time. Here we present evaluation of Apache Spark platform for CMS needs. We discuss two main use-cases CMS analytics and ML studies where efficient process billions of records stored on HDFS plays an important role. We demonstrate that both Scala and Python (PySpark) APIs can be successfully used to execute extremely I/O intensive queries and provide valuable data insight from collected meta-data.
In recent years, emerging hardware storage technologies have focused on divergent goals: better performance or lower cost-per-bit of storage. Correspondingly, data systems that employ these new technologies are optimized either to be fast (but expens ive) or cheap (but slow). We take a different approach: by combining multiple tiers of fast and low-cost storage technologies within the same system, we can achieve a Pareto-efficient balance between performance and cost-per-bit. This paper presents the design and implementation of PrismDB, a novel log-structured merge tree based key-value store that exploits a full spectrum of heterogeneous storage technologies (from 3D XPoint to QLC NAND). We introduce the notion of read-awareness to log-structured merge trees, which allows hot objects to be pinned to faster storage, achieving better tiering and hot-cold separation of objects. Compared to the standard use of RocksDB on flash in datacenters today, PrismDBs average throughput on heterogeneous storage is 2.3$times$ faster and its tail latency is more than an order of magnitude better, using hardware than is half the cost.
