Thanks Xiao, a more up to date publication in a conference like VLDB will
certainly turn the the tide for many of us trying to defend Spark's
Optimizer.

Re: Why Apache Spark doesn't use Calcite?

2020-01-15 Thread Xiao Li
In the upcoming Spark 3.0, we introduced a new framework for Adaptive Query
Execution in Catalyst. This can adjust the plans based on the runtime
statistics. This is missing in Calcite based on my understanding.

Catalyst is also very easy to enhance. We also use the dynamic programming
approach in our cost-based join reordering. If needed, in the future, we
also can improve the existing CBO and make it more general. The paper of
Spark SQL was published 5 years ago. A lot of great contributions were made
in the past 5 years.

Cheers,

Xiao

Re: Why Apache Spark doesn't use Calcite?

2020-01-15 Thread Debajyoti Roy
Thanks all, and Matei.

TL;DR of the conclusion for my particular case:
Qualitatively, while Catalyst[1] tries to mitigate learning curve and
maintenance burden, it lacks the dynamic programming approach used by
Calcite[2] and risks falling into local minima.
Quantitatively, there is no reproducible benchmark, that fairly compares
Optimizer frameworks, apples to apples (excluding execution).

Re: Why Apache Spark doesn't use Calcite?

2020-01-13 Thread Matei Zaharia
I’m pretty sure that Catalyst was built before Calcite, or at least in 
parallel. Calcite 1.0 was only released in 2015. From a technical standpoint, 
building Catalyst in Scala also made it more concise and easier to extend than 
an optimizer written in Java (you can find various presentations about how 
Catalyst works).

Re: Why Apache Spark doesn't use Calcite?

2020-01-13 Thread Michael Mior
It's fairly common for adapters (Calcite's abstraction of a data
source) to push down predicates. However, the API certainly looks a
lot different than Catalyst's.

The implementation they chose supports push down predicates, Datasets and
other features that are not available in Calcite:
