Hi Nathan,

Thanks for the detailed information. Much appreciated.

I now have a better understanding of the goals. It looks interesting.

Happy to help as a mentor if you need.

Thanks !

+1, I'm glad to be one of the mentors.

I had a discussion with Nathan and Jinsong two years ago. They
expressed interest in open-sourcing Arctic (formerly) and donating
it to the ASF Incubator in the future. 

I am happy to witness the community growth and the proposal that
has finally been put forward.

+1, I was also one of the early developers on the project, focusing on
solving optimization and compaction issues with the company's Iceberg
tables. I believe that many teams using datalake need a system like Amoro
for effective data lake management and to reduce the complexity of data
lake maintenance. Therefore, contributing it to ASF can enrich the usage
scenarios and enhance datalake management capabilities.

+1. I'm happy to be one of the mentors.

I have discussed with Jinsong, Nathan and the team, and am impressed
by their openness and passion on improving the Amoro community through
incubation. From my observation, it's a well developed community with
a similar governance philosophy as the Apache Way. I believe joining
Apache incubator could help the community to be more vibrant and
diverse.

And personally, I think having a dedicated project with the purpose to
better manage Lakehouse is necessary. IMHO, compared to the
traditional DBMS solutions, the existing open source Lakehouse
solutions focus more on the "DB" part and lack efforts on the "MS"
part.

RE: Re: [DISCUSS] Apache Amoro proposal

2024-02-24 Thread nathan ma
hi, JB

As co-creator of this project, I’d love to explain more about the
positioning of lakehouse management system.

When discussing databases or traditional data warehouses, we often used the
term DBMS (Database Management System) to describe them. Traditional
databases, including MPP databases, are typically considered “out-of-box”
solutions. Unlike big data systems, they don’t require various components
like compute engines, data lake formats, or metadata stores. When we need a
database management tool, lightweight options like Navicat are commonly
used.

If we further abstract the capabilities of a DBMS and map them to the
modern data stack, we find that the data read/write part of a DBMS is now
shared among different compute engines such as Spark, Flink, Trino, and
cloud-native services like Athena. Another part of a DBMS deals with data
files, index files, and metadata (also known as the information schema)
maintenance. Currently, there are successful open-source and commercial
projects dedicated to managing metadata, such as HiveMetastore,
UnityCatalog, and more recently, Gravitino. In practice, developers often
combine these projects with compute engines to optimize data files. For
example, many commercial compute engines include an optimize command.

Amoro, as a lakehouse management system, aims to encapsulate the
maintenance and management of data lake files, index files, and metadata in
a way that is transparent and easy-to-use for users. The richness of
diverse computing engines is a distinctive feature of the modern data
stack, opening up a multitude of possibilities for various application
scenarios. Additionally, concerning the part analogous to DBMS, we aspire
to have a mature system in place—one that seamlessly accommodates data
written to the lakehouse by any engine, in any manner, ensuring high data
availability across all other engines. For instance, when Flink writes to
Iceberg, Amoro’s self-optimizing mechanism ensures efficient data analysis
performance by Trino or other engines while controlling compacting costs.
Additionally, Amoro handles historical data, snapshots, and orphan file
cleanup in the background.

By positioning Amoro in this way, we aim to provide an ‘out-of-box’
experience that feels as straightforward as traditional DBMS while keeping
openness to various computing engines. At the same time, Amoro hopes to
empower data product builders with a lightweight solution that integrates
seamlessly into their modern data workflows.



Thanks.

combine these projects with compute engines to optimize data files. For
example, many commercial compute engines include an optimize command.

Amoro, as a lakehouse management system, aims to encapsulate the
maintenance and management of data lake files, index files, and metadata in
a way that is transparent and easy-to-use for users. The richness of
diverse computing engines is a distinctive feature of the modern data
stack, opening up a multitude of possibilities for various application
scenarios. Additionally, concerning the part analogous to DBMS, we aspire
to have a mature system in place—one that seamlessly accommodates data
written to the lakehouse by any engine, in any manner, ensuring high data
availability across all other engines. For instance, when Flink writes to
Iceberg, Amoro’s self-optimizing mechanism ensures efficient data analysis
performance by Trino or other engines while controlling compacting costs.
Additionally, Amoro handles historical data, snapshots, and orphan file
cleanup in the background.

By positioning Amoro in this way, we aim to provide an ‘out-of-box’
experience that feels as straightforward as traditional DBMS while keeping
openness to various computing engines. At the same time, Amoro hopes to
empower data product builders with a lightweight solution that integrates
seamlessly into their modern data workflows.



Thanks.

Hi JB,

Yes, you can say it is an abstraction layer on top of data lake table
formats and query engines and we often call it the service layer in
Lakehouse architecture. The service layer primarily provides unified
metadata and access control, as well as common audit services, and so on.
Of course, Amoro is currently focusing on automatic optimizing, helping
users to more easily use the data lake and achieve the desired analytical
performance on it. Amoro can work with other software in the service layer
and can also extend plugins to integrate more capabilities.

Hi Ayush,

I am Jinsong from Amoro community.
Thank you very much for your attention and feedback on Amoro. Amoro aims to
support multiple versions of Hadoop and Hive clusters as much as possible,
allowing users to specify versions during build time, but just as you said,
our default version should remain the latest. I have created an issue[1] to
track this problem and will work on it to resolve it as soon as possible.

Hi Justin

Even if it looks interesting, I'm not sure to understand exactly the
purpose of the proposal.

What lakehouse management system means exactly ? Is it an abstraction
layer on top of Iceberg, Paimon + query engine powered by Flink,
Spark, Trino ?

Please let me know if you want an additional mentor, I would be happy to help.

Thanks !
Regards
JB

+1,
I remember exploring this while exploring a way for compaction for iceberg
tables for a Hive usecase, got some good pointers for cleaning up orphan
files, I think it was using a pretty old version of Hive(3.1.1 I believe),
so couldn't pull it in as dependency in Hive master branch itself, which
was my initial plan.

But overall, it was some good code.

Good Luck!!!

[DISCUSS] Apache Amoro proposal

2024-02-23 Thread Justin Mclean
Hi,

I would like to propose a new project to the ASF incubator - Apache Amoro. I’m 
one of the mentors, but there are a lot of other people involved who have done 
all of the hard work.

Amoro is a Lakehouse management system built on open data lake formats like 
Apache Iceberg and Apache Paimon (Incubating). Working with compute engines 
including Apache Flink, Apache Spark, and Trino, Amoro brings pluggable and 
self-managed features for Lakehouse to provide out-of-the-box data warehouse 
experience, and helps data platforms or products easily build infra-decoupled, 
stream-and-batch-fused and lake-native architecture. You can find the proposal 
here. [1]

We are looking forward to anyone's feedback or questions.

Thanks,
Justin
