Kafka 0.8.0 Presentation to Atlanta Java User's Group March 2013
- 1. Introduction to Apache Kafka Chris Curtin Head of Technical Research Atlanta Java Users Group March 2013
- 2. About Me • 20+ years in technology • Head of Technical Research at Silverpop (12 + years at Silverpop) • Built a SaaS platform before the term ‘SaaS’ was being used • Prior to Silverpop: real-time control systems, factory automation and warehouse management • Always looking for technologies and algorithms to help with our challenges • Car nut 2
- 3. Silverpop Open Positions • Senior Software Engineer (Java, Oracle, Spring, Hibernate, MongoDB) • Senior Software Engineer – MIS (.NET stack) • Software Engineer • Software Engineer – Integration Services (PHP, MySQL) • Delivery Manager – Engineering • Technical Lead – Engineering • Technical Project Manager – Integration Services • http://www.silverpop.com – Go to Careers under About 3
- 4. Caveats • We don’t use Kafka in production • I don’t have any experience with Kafka in operations • I am not an expert on messaging systems/JMS/MQSeries etc. 4
- 5. Apache Kafka – from Apache • Apache Kafka is a distributed publish-subscribe messaging system. It is designed to support the following – Persistent messaging with O(1) disk structures that provide constant time performance even with many TB of stored messages. – High-throughput: even with very modest hardware Kafka can support hundreds of thousands of messages per second. – Explicit support for partitioning messages over Kafka servers and distributing consumption over a cluster of consumer machines while maintaining per-partition ordering semantics. – Support for parallel data load into Hadoop. 5
- 6. Background • LinkedIn product donated to Apache • Most core developers are from LinkedIn • Pretty good pickup outside of LinkedIn: Air BnB & Urban Airship for example • Fun fact: no logo yet 6
- 7. Why? Data Integration 7
- 8. Point to Point integration (thanks to LinkedIn for slide) 8
- 9. 9
- 11. What we’d really like (thanks to LinkedIn for slide) 11
- 12. Looks Familiar: JMS to the rescue! 12
- 13. Okay: Data warehouse to the rescue! 13
- 14. Okay: CICS to the rescue! 14
- 15. Kafka changes the paradigm Kafka doesn’t keep track of who consumed which message 15
- 16. Consumption Management • Kafka leaves management of what was consumed up to the business logic • Each message has a unique identifier (within the topic and partition) • Consumers can ask for message by identifier, even if they are days old • Identifiers are sequential within a topic and partition. 16
- 17. Why is Kafka Interesting? Horizontally scalable messaging system 17
- 18. Terminology • Topics are the main grouping mechanism for messages • Brokers store the messages, take care of redundancy issues • Producers write messages to a broker for a specific topic • Consumers read from Brokers for a specific topic • Topics can be further segmented by partitions • Consumers can read a specific partition from a Topic 18
- 19. API (1 of 25) - Basics • Producer: send(String topic, String key, Message message) • Consumer: Iterator<Message> fetch(…) 19
- 20. API • Just kidding – that’s pretty much it for the API • Minor variation on the consumer for ‘Simple’ consumers but that’s really it • ‘under the covers’ functions to get current offsets or implement non-trivial consumers 20
- 21. Architecture (thanks to LinkedIn for slide) 21
- 22. Producers • Pretty Basic API • Partitioning is a little odd, requires Producers to know about partition scheme • Producers DO NOT know about consumers 22
- 23. Consumers: Consumer Groups • Easiest to get started with • Kafka makes sure only one thread in the group sees a message for a topic (or a message within a Partition) • Uses Zookeeper to keep track of what messages were consumed in which topic/partitions • No ‘once and only once’ delivery semantics here • Rebalance may mean a message gets replayed 23
- 24. Consumers: Simple Consumer • Consumer subscribes to a specific topic and partition • Consumer has to keep track of what message offset was last consumed • A lot more error handling required if Brokers have issues • But a lot more control over which messages are read. Does allow for ‘exactly once’ messaging 24
- 25. Consumer Model Design • Partition design impacts overall throughput – Producers know partitioning class – Producers write to single Broker ‘leader’ for a partition • Offsets as only transaction identifier complicates consumer – ‘throw more hardware’ at the backlog is complicated – Consumer Groups == 1 thread per partition • If expensive operations can’t throw more threads at it • Not a lot of ‘real world’ examples on balancing # of topics vs. # of partitions 25
- 26. Why is Kafka Interesting? Memory Mapped Files Kernel-space processing 26
- 27. What is a commit log? (thanks to LinkedIn for slide) 27
- 28. Brokers • Lightweight, very fast message storing • Writes messages to disk using kernel space NOT JVM • Uses OS Pagecache • Data is stored in flat files on disk, directory per topic and partition • Handles the replication 28
- 29. Brokers continued • Very low memory utilization – almost nothing is held in memory • (Remember, Broker doesn’t keep track of who has consumed a message) • Handle TTL operations on data • Drop a file when the data is too old 29
- 30. Why is Kafka Interesting? Stuff just works Producers and Consumers are about business logic 30
- 31. Consumer Use Case: batch loading • Consumers don’t have to be online all the time • Wake up every hour, ask Kafka for events since last request • Load into a database, push to external systems etc. • Load into Hadoop (Stream if using MapR) 31
- 32. Consumer Use Case: Complex Event Processing • Feed to Storm or similar CEP • Partition on user id, subsystem, product etc. independent of Kafka’s partition • Execute rules on the data • Made a mistake? Replay the events and fix it 32
- 33. Consumer Use Case: Operations Logs • Load ‘old’ operational messages to debug problems • Do it without impacting production systems (remember, consumers can start at any offset!) • Have business logic write to different output store than production, but drive off production data 33
- 34. Adding New Business Logic (thanks to LinkedIn for slide) 34
- 35. Adding Producers • Define Topics and # of partitions via Kafka tools • (possibly tell Kafka to balance leaders across machines) • Start producing 35
- 36. Adding Consumers • Using Kafka adding consumers doesn’t impact producers • Minor impact on Brokers (just keeping track of connections) 36
- 37. Producer Code public class TestProducer { public static void main(String[] args) { long events = Long.parseLong(args[0]); long blocks = Long.parseLong(args[1]); Random rnd = new Random(); Properties props = new Properties(); props.put("broker.list", "vrd01.atlnp1:9092,vrd02.atlnp1:9092,vrd03.atlnp1:9092"); props.put("serializer.class", "kafka.serializer.StringEncoder"); props.put("partitioner.class", "com.silverpop.kafka.playproducer.OrganizationPartitioner"); ProducerConfig config = new ProducerConfig(props); Producer<Integer, String> producer = new Producer<Integer, String>(config); for (long nBlocks = 0; nBlocks < blocks; nBlocks++) { for (long nEvents = 0; nEvents < events; nEvents++) { long runtime = new Date().getTime(); String msg = runtime + "," + (50 + nBlocks) + "," + nEvents+ "," + rnd.nextInt(1000); String key = String.valueOf(orgId); KeyedMessage<Integer, String> data = new KeyedMessage<Integer, String>("test1", key, msg); producer.send(data); } } producer.close(); } } 37
- 38. Simple Consumer Code String topic = "test1"; int partition = 0; SimpleConsumer simpleConsumer = new SimpleConsumer("vrd01.atlnp1", 9092,100000, 64 * 1024, "test"); boolean loop = true; long maxOffset = -1; while (loop) { FetchRequest req = new FetchRequestBuilder().clientId("randomClient") .addFetch(topic, partition, maxOffset+1, 100000) .build(); FetchResponse fetchResponse = simpleConsumer.fetch(req); loop = false; for (MessageAndOffset messageAndOffset : fetchResponse.messageSet(topic, partition)) { loop = true; ByteBuffer payload = messageAndOffset.message().payload(); maxOffset = messageAndOffset.offset(); byte[] bytes = new byte[payload.limit()]; payload.get(bytes); System.out.println(String.valueOf(maxOffset) + ": " + new String(bytes, "UTF-8")); } } simpleConsumer.close(); 38
- 39. Consumer Groups Code // create 4 partitions of the stream for topic “test”, to allow 4 threads to consume Map<String, List<KafkaStream<Message>>> topicMessageStreams = consumerConnector.createMessageStreams(ImmutableMap.of("test", 4)); List<KafkaStream<Message>> streams = topicMessageStreams.get("test"); // create list of 4 threads to consume from each of the partitions ExecutorService executor = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(4); // consume the messages in the threads for(final KafkaStream<Message> stream: streams) { executor.submit(new Runnable() { public void run() { for(MessageAndMetadata msgAndMetadata: stream) { // process message (msgAndMetadata.message()) } } }); } 39
- 40. Demo • 4- node Kafka cluster • 4 – node Storm cluster • 4 – node MongoDB cluster • Test Producer in IntelliJ creates website events into Kafka • Storm-Kafka Spout reads from Kafka into Storm topology – Trident groups by organization and counts visits by day • Trident end point writes to MongoDB • MongoDB shell query to see counts change 40
- 41. LinkedIn Clusters (2012 presentation) • 8 nodes per datacenter – ~20 GB RAM available for Kafka – 6TB storage, RAID 10, basic SATA drives • 10,000 connections into the cluster for both production and consumption 41
- 42. Performance (LinkedIn 2012 presentation) • 10 billion messages/day • Sustained peak: – 172,000 messages/second written – 950,000 messages/second read • 367 topics • 40 real-time consumers • Many ad hoc consumers • 10k connections/colo • 9.5TB log retained • End-to-end delivery time: 10 seconds (avg) 42
- 43. Questions so far? 43
- 44. Something completely Different • Nathan Marz (twitter, BackType) • Creator of Storm 44
- 45. Immutable Applications • No updates to data • Either insert or delete • ‘Functional Applications’ • http://manning.com/marz/BD_meap_ch01.pdf 45
