Distributed Stream Processing (DSP) systems enable processing large streams of continuous data to produce results in near to real time. They are an essential part of many data-intensive applications and analytics platforms. The rate at which events arrive at DSP systems can vary considerably over time, which may be due to trends, cyclic, and seasonal patterns within the data streams. A priori knowledge of incoming workloads enables proactive approaches to resource management and optimization tasks such as dynamic scaling, live migration of resources, and the tuning of configuration parameters during run-times, thus leading to a potentially better Quality of Service. In this paper we conduct a comprehensive evaluation of different load prediction techniques for DSP jobs. We identify three use-cases and formulate requirements for making load predictions specific to DSP jobs. Automatically optimized classical and Deep Learning methods are being evaluated on nine different datasets from typical DSP domains, i.e. the IoT, Web 2.0, and cluster monitoring. We compare model performance with respect to overall accuracy and training duration. Our results show that the Deep Learning methods provide the most accurate load predictions for the majority of the evaluated datasets.

We study the problem of load balancing in distributed stream processing engines, which is exacerbated in the presence of skew. We introduce Partial Key Grouping (PKG), a new stream partitioning scheme that adapts the classical power of two choices to a distributed streaming setting by leveraging two novel techniques: key splitting and local load estimation. In so doing, it achieves better load balancing than key grouping while being more scalable than shuffle grouping. We test PKG on several large datasets, both real-world and synthetic. Compared to standard hashing, PKG reduces the load imbalance by up to several orders of magnitude, and often achieves nearly-perfect load balance. This result translates into an improvement of up to 60% in throughput and up to 45% in latency when deployed on a real Storm cluster.
Stream applications are widely deployed on the cloud. While modern distributed streaming systems like Flink and Spark Streaming can schedule and execute them efficiently, streaming dataflows are often dynamically changing, which may cause computation imbalance and backpressure. We introduce AutoFlow, an automatic, hotspot-aware dynamic load balance system for streaming dataflows. It incorporates a centralized scheduler which monitors the load balance in the entire dataflow dynamically and implements state migrations correspondingly. The scheduler achieves these two tasks using a simple asynchronous distributed control message mechanism and a hotspot-diminishing algorithm. The timing mechanism supports implicit barriers and a highly efficient state-migration without global barriers or pauses to operators. It also supports a time-window based load-balance measurement and feeds them to the hotspot-diminishing algorithm without user interference. We implemented AutoFlow on top of Ray, an actor-based distributed execution framework. Our evaluation based on various streaming benchmark dataset shows that AutoFlow achieves good load-balance and incurs a low latency overhead in highly data-skew workload.
Distributed Stream Processing systems are becoming an increasingly essential part of Big Data processing platforms as users grow ever more reliant on their ability to provide fast access to new results. As such, making timely decisions based on these results is dependent on a systems ability to tolerate failure. Typically, these systems achieve fault tolerance and the ability to recover automatically from partial failures by implementing checkpoint and rollback recovery. However, owing to the statistical probability of partial failures occurring in these distributed environments and the variability of workloads upon which jobs are expected to operate, static configurations will often not meet Quality of Service constraints with low overhead. In this paper we present Khaos, a new approach which utilizes the parallel processing capabilities of virtual cloud automation technologies for the automatic runtime optimization of fault tolerance configurations in Distributed Stream Processing jobs. Our approach employs three subsequent phases which borrows from the principles of Chaos Engineering: establish the steady-state processing conditions, conduct experiments to better understand how the system performs under failure, and use this knowledge to continuously minimize Quality of Service violations. We implemented Khaos prototypically together with Apache Flink and demonstrate its usefulness experimentally.
Fine tuning distributed systems is considered to be a craftsmanship, relying on intuition and experience. This becomes even more challenging when the systems need to react in near real time, as streaming engines have to do to maintain pre-agreed serv ice quality metrics. In this article, we present an automated approach that builds on a combination of supervised and reinforcement learning methods to recommend the most appropriate lever configurations based on previous load. With this, streaming engines can be automatically tuned without requiring a human to determine the right way and proper time to deploy them. This opens the door to new configurations that are not being applied today since the complexity of managing these systems has surpassed the abilities of human experts. We show how reinforcement learning systems can find substantially better configurations in less time than their human counterparts and adapt to changing workloads.
We introduce a new graph problem, the token dropping game, and we show how to solve it efficiently in a distributed setting. We use the token dropping game as a tool to design an efficient distributed algorithm for stable orientations and more genera lly for locally optimal semi-matchings. The prior work by Czygrinow et al. (DISC 2012) finds a stable orientation in $O(Delta^5)$ rounds in graphs of maximum degree $Delta$, while we improve it to $O(Delta^4)$ and also prove a lower bound of $Omega(Delta)$.
