Liyin Tang created SPARK-14230: ---------------------------------- Summary: Config the start time (jitter) for streaming jobs Key: SPARK-14230 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-14230 Project: Spark Issue Type: Improvement Components: Streaming Reporter: Liyin Tang
Currently, RecurringTimer will normalize the start time. For instance, if batch duration is 1 min, all the job will start exactly at 1 min boundary. This actually adds some burden to the streaming source. Assuming the source is Kafka, and there is a list of streaming jobs with 1 min batch duration, then at first few seconds of each min, high network traffic will be observed in Kafka. This makes Kafka capacity planning tricky. It will be great to have an option in the streaming context to set the job start time. In this way, user can add a jitter for the start time for each, and make Kafka fetch_request much smooth across the duration window. {code} class RecurringTimer { def getStartTime(): Long = { (math.floor(clock.currentTime.toDouble / period) + 1).toLong * period + jitter } } {code} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
