Introduction into scalable graph analysis with Apache Giraph and Spark GraphX

Graph relationships are everywhere. In fact, more often than not, analyzing relationships between points in your datasets lets you extract more business value from your data. Consider social graphs, or relationships of customers to each other and products they purchase, as two of the most common examples. Now, if you think you have a scalability issue just analyzing points in your datasets, imagine what would happen if you wanted to start analyzing the arbitrary relationships between those data points: the amount of potential processing will increase dramatically, and the kind of algorithms you would typically want to run would change as well. If your Hadoop batch-oriented approach with MapReduce works reasonably well, for scalable graph processing you have to embrace an in-memory, explorative, and iterative approach. One of the best ways to tame this complexity is known as the Bulk synchronous parallel approach. Its two most widely used implementations are available as Hadoop ecosystem projects: Apache Giraph (used at Facebook), and Apache GraphX (as part of a Spark project). In this talk we will focus on practical advice on how to get up and running with Apache Giraph and GraphX; start analyzing simple datasets with built-in algorithms; and finally how to implement your own graph processing applications using the APIs provided by the projects. We will finally compare and contrast the two, and try to lay out some principles of when to use one vs. the other.

- 11. “On day one Doug created HDFS and MapReduce”
- 12. Google papers that started it all • GFS (file system) • distributed • replicated • non-POSIX" • MapReduce (computational framework) • distributed • batch-oriented (long jobs; final results) • data-gravity aware • designed for “embarrassingly parallel” algorithms
- 13. HDFS pools and abstracts direct-attached storage … HDFS MR MR
- 14. A Unix analogy § It is as though instead of: $ grep foo bar.txt | tr “,” “ “ | sort -‐u § We are doing: $ grep foo < bar.txt > /tmp/1.txt $ tr “,” “ “ < /tmp/1.txt > /tmp/2.txt $ sort –u < /tmp/2.txt

- 19. What’s so special about Graphs and big data?
- 20. Graph relationships § Entities in your data: tuples - customer data - product data - interaction data § Connection between entities: graphs - social network or my customers - clustering of customers vs. products
- 21. A word about Graph databases § Plenty available - Neo4J, Titan, etc. § Benefits - Query language - Tightly integrate systems with few moving parts - High performance on known data sets § Shortcomings - Not easy to scale horizontally - Don’t integrate with HDFS - Combine storage and computational layers - A sea of APIs
- 22. What’s the key API? § Directed multi-graph with labels attached to vertices and edges § Defining vertices and edges dynamically § Selecting sub-graphs § Mutating the topology of the graph § Partitioning the graph § Computing model that is - iterative - scalable (shared nothing) - resilient - easy to manage at scale
