[jira] [Updated] (HDFS-7285) Erasure Coding Support inside HDFS
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-7285?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ] Andrew Wang updated HDFS-7285: -- Release Note: HDFS now provides native support for erasure coding (EC) to store data more efficiently. Each individual directory can be configured with an EC policy with command `hdfs erasurecode -setPolicy`. When a file is created, it will inherit the EC policy from its nearest ancestor directory to determine how its blocks are stored. Compared to 3-way replication, the default EC policy saves 50% of storage space while also tolerating more storage failures. To support small files, the currently phase of HDFS-EC stores blocks in _striped_ layout, where a logical file block is divided into small units (64KB by default) and distributed to a set of DataNodes. This enables parallel I/O but also decreases data locality. Therefore, the cluster environment and I/O workloads should be considered before configuring EC policies. was: HDFS now provides native support for erasure coding (EC) to store data more efficiently.

Also uploading the consolidated patch (renaming it again and hoping Jenkins applies it against trunk instead of our branch). I made some minor adjustments to the list of sub patches: {code} 1. HADOOP-COMMON side support for codec calculations 2. Support Erasure Coding Zones. 3. Extend BlockInfo to handle striped block groups. 4. Allocate and manage striped blocks in NameNode blockmanagement module. 5. BlockPlacementPolicies for erasure coding 6. Create LocatedStripedBlock abstraction to represent striped block groups. 7. Distribute recovery work for striped blocks to DataNode. 8. Add striped block support in INodeFile. 9. Client side support 10. Datanode support 11. Change fsck to support EC files 12. Support striped block groups in fsimage and edit logs 13. Balancer and mover support for striped block groups 14. Additional unit tests for erasure coding {code} I also cherry-picked the 2 new patches from HDFS-7285 branch. I created separate Jenkins builds for sub patches 1~4. Most tests passed. The remaining handful of failures seem to be resulted from the patch splitting (they pass in the final consolidated patch). So *sub patches 1~4* are ready for reviews.

[jira] [Updated] (HDFS-7285) Erasure Coding Support inside HDFS
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-7285?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ] Vinayakumar B updated HDFS-7285: Target Version/s: 3.0.0 (was: HDFS-7285) Status: Patch Available (was: Open) Erasure Coding Support inside HDFS -- Key: HDFS-7285 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-7285 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: New Feature Reporter: Weihua Jiang Assignee: Zhe Zhang Attachments: ECAnalyzer.py, ECParser.py, HDFS-7285-initial-PoC.patch, HDFS-7285-merge-consolidated-01.patch, HDFS-EC-Merge-PoC-20150624.patch, HDFS-bistriped.patch, HDFSErasureCodingDesign-20141028.pdf, HDFSErasureCodingDesign-20141217.pdf, HDFSErasureCodingDesign-20150204.pdf, HDFSErasureCodingDesign-20150206.pdf, HDFSErasureCodingPhaseITestPlan.pdf, fsimage-analysis-20150105.pdf Erasure Coding (EC) can greatly reduce the storage overhead without sacrifice of data reliability, comparing to the existing HDFS 3-replica approach. For example, if we use a 10+4 Reed Solomon coding, we can allow loss of 4 blocks, with storage overhead only being 40%. This makes EC a quite attractive alternative for big data storage, particularly for cold data. Facebook had a related open source project called HDFS-RAID. It used to be one of the contribute packages in HDFS but had been removed since Hadoop 2.0 for maintain reason. The drawbacks are: 1) it is on top of HDFS and depends on MapReduce to do encoding and decoding tasks; 2) it can only be used for cold files that are intended not to be appended anymore; 3) the pure Java EC coding implementation is extremely slow in practical use. Due to these, it might not be a good idea to just bring HDFS-RAID back. We (Intel and Cloudera) are working on a design to build EC into HDFS that gets rid of any external dependencies, makes it self-contained and independently maintained. This design lays the EC feature on the storage type support and considers compatible with existing HDFS features like caching, snapshot, encryption, high availability and etc. This design will also support different EC coding schemes, implementations and policies for different deployment scenarios. By utilizing advanced libraries (e.g. Intel ISA-L library), an implementation can greatly improve the performance of EC encoding/decoding and makes the EC solution even more attractive. We will post the design document soon. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)

Merged the latest trunk code to HDFS-7285 branch. 2. Taken diff against trunk. Includes all changes done till date in the branch. Thanks to [~zhz]. Most complicated BlockInfo heirarchy conflicts were resolved using the POC patch posted earlier. Patch is pretty big. But also Intended to run jenkins.

Attached is the consolidated PoC patch. The aforementioned github [repo | https://github.com/zhe-thoughts/hadoop/tree/HDFS-EC-Merge] also has the same changes. We have roughly: # 5,600 LoC in {{hadoop-common}}, which is entirely new code # 2,000 LoC in {{blockmanagement}}. This is mainly to support block-level management of striping. Aside from a few new classes, most changes are in {{BlockManager}} # 1,600 LoC in {{namenode}}. This is mainly to add striped blocks support in {{INodeFile}}, and fsimage/editlog. Biggest changes are on {{INodeFile}}, {{FSNameSystem}}, and {{FSDirWriteFileOp}} # 1,100 LoC in {{datanode}}, 2,500 in client, and 1,000 in util. This is mainly new code. Next I plan to make another pass and divide the consolidated patch into functional pieces (while doing that, add associated tests to each piece). Meanwhile, any comments / questions / suggestions on the patch are very welcome.

Due to these, it might not be a good idea to just bring HDFS-RAID back. We (Intel and Cloudera) are working on a design to build EC into HDFS that gets rid of any external dependencies, makes it self-contained and independently maintained. This design lays the EC feature on the storage type support and considers compatible with existing HDFS features like caching, snapshot, encryption, high availability and etc. This design will also support different EC coding schemes, implementations and policies for different deployment scenarios. By utilizing advanced libraries (e.g. Intel ISA-L library), an implementation can greatly improve the performance of EC encoding/decoding and makes the EC solution even more attractive.
