Introduce new load manager API #303

bobbeyreese · 2017-03-21T23:34:57Z

Motivation

The current load balancer implementation has demonstrated poor performance in some scenarios, particularly when doing a cold restart or when the load reaches unexpected heights at some brokers. This PR attempts to first address the cold start issue.

Modifications

Added third load balancing strategy based on least messages per second.
Added load simulation servers, which contain producers and consumers used to simulate load.
- com.yahoo.pulsar.testclient.LoadSimulationServer
- pulsar-perf simulation-server <options>
Added controller to send commands to load simulation servers in a shell, such as adding (potentially groups of) producers/consumers, changing message rates/sizes, and stopping them.
- com.yahoo.pulsar.testclient.LoadSimulationController
- pulsar-perf simulation-controller <options>
- Can also run scripts.
Added broker monitor which will watch and print load report information.
- com.yahoo.pulsar.testclient.BrokerMonitor
- pulsar-perf monitor <options>
- Also available in new API: com.yahoo.pulsar.testclient.NewBrokerMonitor and pulsar-perf new-monitor <options>
Added proposal for new load balancing API which is simpler, more modular, and written with less code.
- Interface: com.yahoo.pulsar.broker.loadbalance.NewLoadManager
- Implementation: com.yahoo.pulsar.broker.loadbalance.impl.NewLoadManagerImpl
- May implement LoadManager via com.yahoo.pulsar.broker.loadbalance.impl.NewLoadManagerWrapper
- Added broker filter pipeline, a sequence of objects that blacklist brokers for selection in exceptional cases (e.g., high CPU).
  - com.yahoo.pulsar.broker.loadbalance.BrokerFilter
  - Has no current implementations.
- Added new placement strategy API, which uses all the data available to the leader broker to make bundle assignment decisions.
  - com.yahoo.pulsar.broker.loadbalance.NewPlacementStrategy
  - Currently implemented only by com.yahoo.pulsar.broker.loadbalance.impl.LeastLongTermMessageRate
- Added load shedding strategy, which uses all the information available to the leader broker to decide if any bundles should be unloaded.
  - com.yahoo.pulsar.broker.loadbalance.LoadSheddingStrategy
  - Implemented only by com.yahoo.pulsar.broker.loadbalance.impl.DeviationShedder (untested, abstract)
Added dynamically configurable fields which allow us to switch between strategies and managers (i.e., between old and new API).
Added allocated and preallocated data to the load report, as well as the bundle gains/losses since the last update.

Result

We will have the option to use, configure, and switch between a new load balancing strategy.
We will be able to more easily simulation load and test load balancing strategies.
We will be able to use the old load balancer if we want to.

By lowering this interval to 1min, every broker is going to update its own load report every 1min, even if there were no substantial changes in the traffic.

Whenever 1 broker updates the z-node, all the other broker will get the watch and reload that load report and redo the ranking. That could be a bit expensive and it was the reason to wait up to 15min to update, in the case the load doesn't change more than X%

This makes sense, I will revert the default back to 15 minutes.

What is the difference between BrokerMonitor and NewBrokerMonitor ?

The difference is that one monitors data when SimpleLoadManagerImpl is used and the other monitors data when ModularLoadManagerImpl is used. I have renamed them to SimpleLoadManagerBrokerMonitor and ModularLoadManagerBrokerMonitor to better reflect the difference.

Overall looks very nice. Just few comments and formatting (use Eclipse with the formatting profile from src/formatter.xml).

Once this is merged, then it would also be good to have a document in the "Internal Docs" section to explain the mechanism behind the load manager and, even nicer, to have some visualization of the load distribution comparing old vs new load manager.

Use SimpleLoadManagerImpl.class.getName(), so that it gets updated if the class is renamed.

There's a bit of an issue with this, in that pulsar-broker depends on pulsar-broker-common and maven doesn't allow circular dependencies. Without package reorganization I'm not sure it can be done this way.

Ok, no problem then

Instead of assuming a particular constructor, a common practice with interfaces and reflection is to assume default constructor and then enforce an init method in the interface:

void initialize(PulsarService service);

That sounds fine, the only problem I would have with that is that I would lose the ability to finalize many fields, but that probably is not a big deal so I will change it

Once you have a producer, it's good forever. Even if you get an except, the producer instance is still valid and it will recover by itself.

Hmm, it seems that for whatever reason, I am experiencing issues related to netty/direct memory if I do not attempt to make a new producer:

io.netty.util.IllegalReferenceCountException: refCnt: 0, increment: 1 at io.netty.buffer.AbstractReferenceCountedByteBuf.retain(AbstractReferenceCountedByteBuf.java:63) at com.yahoo.pulsar.common.compression.CompressionCodecNone.encode(CompressionCodecNone.java:27) at com.yahoo.pulsar.client.impl.BatchMessageContainer.getCompressedBatchMetadataAndPayload(BatchMessageContainer.java:107) at com.yahoo.pulsar.client.impl.ProducerImpl.batchMessageAndSend(ProducerImpl.java:1019) at com.yahoo.pulsar.client.impl.ProducerImpl.doBatchSendAndAdd(ProducerImpl.java:293) at com.yahoo.pulsar.client.impl.ProducerImpl.sendAsync(ProducerImpl.java:237) at com.yahoo.pulsar.client.impl.ProducerImpl.sendAsync(ProducerImpl.java:134) at com.yahoo.pulsar.client.impl.ProducerBase.sendAsync(ProducerBase.java:47) at com.yahoo.pulsar.testclient.LoadSimulationServer$TradeUnit.start(LoadSimulationServer.java:112) at com.yahoo.pulsar.testclient.LoadSimulationServer.lambda$handle$5(LoadSimulationServer.java:212) at java.util.concurrent.Executors$RunnableAdapter.call(Executors.java:511) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.run(FutureTask.java:266) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:1142) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:617) at io.netty.util.concurrent.DefaultThreadFactory$DefaultRunnableDecorator.run(DefaultThreadFactory.java:144) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:745)

As a result, I can end up losing a bunch of bundles in the simulation. I will leave the get new producer logic for now and try to find a better solution later

does it mean we don't write into /loadbalance/brokers anymore once we enable this load-manager? because while migration old broker still tries to get broker's url from path /loadbalance/brokers while redirection of lookup request. and if this node will not be present then lookup may fail?

This was resolved by having NamespaceService call getBrokerRoot instead of using the hardcoded path

is the same logic compare to SimpleLoadManagerImpl.getFinalCandidates() to filter out candidate if yes then should we put it into some common place to avoid for any new loadManager?

It is very similar, but at the moment the different in the APIs (Multimap<Long, ResourceUnit> vs. Set<String>) complicate refactoring of this portion of the code significantly.

I had some time today and decided to go ahead and share the code, along with other duplicate code. It makes a somewhat invasive change to SimpleLoadManagerImpl which could possibly impact performance: If there are major concerns there I will revert by to the previous version.

Since BundleData is only maintained in memory by the leader, we will loose that info when leader restarts. Isn't it useful to have bundle specific historic data preserved across restart?

If this is invoked when load data is updated by every broker, shouldn't we update the data for that broker instead of all?

You're right, good catch.

EDIT: Actually, the local data is updated via writeBrokerDataOnZooKeeper, which is called periodically by LoadReportUpdaterTask. This updateAll periodic invocation ensures that the load data is up to date; while we could delegate it only to the leader broker, this could complicate things a little bit because:

The load manager does not know directly whether it is the leader broker.

Since it is implemented as a watch we would have to make special stipulations based on whether the broker is the leader broker.

I think that, since updating invokes reads and not writes, it is not so bad for every broker to do it. It is actually similar to SimpleLoadManagerImpl's behavior, since onUpdate updates the rankings for it, for each broker.

Why do we need synchronized block here?

Without the synchronized block, decisions will be made without the latest preallocated data. If many selections are processed within a short time frame, this could result in the least loaded broker receiving too many assignments. A weighted random procedure could counteract this, but it is a little less reliable and more complicated.

I think we don't need this field. right now, we derive loadBalancerIsCentralized based on strategy. if strategy is leastLoadedServer then loadBalancerIsCentralized will be true else false. So, each LoadBalancer implements isCentralized method.
So, as we already have loadBalancer implementation then LoadBalancerIml.isCentralized() should have predefine value and it shouldn't be dynamic. right?

That's true, though the advantage of using a logger is that you can chose to change levels or save to a file with configuration. Also, every line will get the timestamp printed

do we use lastBundleGains in loadManager?

In is not used in the load manager, but it is used in the monitor to alert users to recent bundle gains.

I think LocalBrokerData is a replacement of LoadReport so, can't we add more information into existing LoadReport and use it? In that way we don't have to maintain two classes and any load-manager can deserialize it. is that correct?

While that is true, I think pushing the new fields into LoadReport would add unnecessary clutter to the JSON for users of SimpleLoadManagerImpl and vice-versa for ModularLoadManagerImpl. I think they are different enough to keep separate.

saandrews · 2017-03-30T19:20:48Z

Can we create a separate pull request to document the steps to enable/disable the new load manager?

It seems to be formatted correctly according to our formatter

should we just have one info statement after creating load-manager.

Nit-picking: how about calling the 2 commands like :

monitor-simple-load-manager monitor-modular-load-manager

Otherwise the adjective seems to be referred to the "monitor" itself.

Shouldn't we still be skipping "virtual" NICs?

We decided that, since virtual nics will not be able to resolve speed (?), we may as well let catch block deal with it. That way, we do not need to resolve symbolic links or get absolute paths.

If you're 100% sure that it works, go ahead 😄 . Otherwise just pull back the if-not-virtual check.

Good effort to revive the load balancer Brad & Bobbey 👍

👍

…vert properly (apache#311) When `KafkaConsumer` send OffsetCommitRequest, the field `retentionTime` is always set to -1, and kafka server convert the retentionTime according to server config. this patch add convert logic the same as kafka server to avoid kop expire the wrong commit offset in `GroupMetadataManager.cleanupGroupMetadata` logic. test in `KafkaRequestHandlerTest.testOffsetCommitRequestRetentionMs`
