I'm really sorry about the delay. Due to some changes on my side, I didn't have 
enough time to work on this before. But I talked to Xiangrui offline recently, 
we will continue to work on this and finalize it in 3.0.

Similar as cache or persistence to different level, maybe we can provide 
different configuration to users. Then, resource allocation to follow the 
predefined policy to allocate resource.

Leveraging dynamic allocation to tear down and bring up desired executor is a 
non-goal here, we will address it in feature, currently we're still focusing on 
using static allocation like spark.executor.gpus.

Am I understanding correctly that this can't assign executors to desired

reallocate it somewhere else?

Hi [~tgraves], I think eval() might unnecessarily break the lineage which could 
execute in one stage, for example: data transforming -> training -> 
transforming, this could possibly run in one stage, using eval will break into 
several stages, I'm not sure if it is the good choice. Also if we use eval to 
break the lineage, how do we store the intermediate data, like shuffle, or in 
memory/ on disk?

Yes, how to break the boundaries is hard for user to know, but currently I 
cannot figure out a good solution, unless we use eval() to explicitly separate 
them. To solve the conflicts, failing might be one choice.

Currently in my design, withResources only applies to the stage in which RDD 
will be executed, the following stages will still be ordinary stages without 
additional resouces.

Thomas Graves commented on SPARK-24615:

so I guess my question is this the right approach at all.  Should we make it 
more obvious to the user where the boundaries would end by adding something 
like the eval().  I guess they could do like what they do for caching today 
which is force an action like count() to force the eval.

If we are making the user add in their own action to evaluate, I would pick 
failing if there are conflicting resources. That way its completely obvious to 
the user that they might not be getting what they want.  The only hard part is 
then though if the user doesn't know how to resolve that because of the way 
spark decides to pick its stages which might not be obvious to the users.  
Especially on the SQL side, but perhaps we aren't going to support that right 
now or support via hints?

Its still not clear to me from the above are we saying the withResources 
applies to just the immediate next stage then, or it sticks until they change 
it again?

Hi [~tgraves] [~irashid] thanks a lot for your comments.

Currently in my design I don't insert a specific stage boundary with different 
resources, the stage boundary is still the same (by shuffle or by result). so 
{{withResouces}} is not an eval() action which trigger a stage. Instead, it 
just adds a resource hint to the RDD.

So which means RDDs with different resources requirements in one stage may have 
conflicts. For example: {{rdd1.withResources.mapPartitions \{ xxx 
\}.withResources.mapPartitions \{ xxx \}.collect}},  resources in rdd1 may be 
different from map rdd, so currently what I can think is that:

1. always pick the latter with warning log to say that multiple different 
resources in one stage is illegal.
2. fail the stage with warning log to say that multiple different resources in 
one stage is illegal.
3. merge conflicts with maximum resources needs. For example rdd1 requires 3 
gpus per task, rdd2 requires 4 gpus per task, then the merged requirement would 
be 4 gpus per task. (This is the high level description, details will be per 
partition based merging) [chosen].

Take join for example, where rdd1 and rdd2 may have different resource 
requirements, and joined RDD will potentially have other resource requirements.

For example:

{code}
val rddA = rdd.mapPartitions().withResources
val rddB = rdd.mapPartitions().withResources
val rddC = rddA.join(rddB).withResources
rddC.collect()
{code}

Here this 3 {{withResources}} may have different requirements. Since {{rddC}} 
is running in a different stage, so there's no need to merge the resource 
conflicts. But {{rddA}} and {{rddB}} are running in the same stage with 
different tasks (partitions). So the merging strategy I'm thinking is based on 
the partition, tasks running with partitions from {{rddA}} will use the 
resource specified by {{rddA}}, so does {{rddB}}.

hi, just catching up here -- agree with a lot of Tom's concerns.  There are a 
lot of corner cases we'd need to think about.  Eg., you mentioned joins, that 
in general they have stage boundaries -- but then again you might in some cases 
have a shared partitioner, which would remove the stage boundary.  And then 
there are other cases like {{zip()}}.

What if you had two rdds in one stage with conflicting requirements?  Eg. they 
request different accelerator types, and no node in the cluster has both 
available?  Would you fail?  Or introduce a stage boundary?  I think failing is 
fine, it would be OK if we require the user to put in their own boundary there 
(eg. by writing to hdfs) just want to think it through.

Thomas Graves commented on SPARK-24615:

Right so I think part of this is trying to make it more obvious to the user 
what the scope actually is.  This in some ways is similar to caching.  I see 
people many times force an evaluation after a cache to force the data to 
actually be cached because otherwise it might not do what they expect.  that is 
why I mentioned the .eval() type functionality.

 For the example:
val rddA = rdd.withResources.mapPartitions()

val rddB = rdd.withResources.mapPartitions()

val rddC = rddA.join(rddB)


 

Above the mapPartitions would normally get their own stages correct?  So I 
would think those stages would be with the resources specific but the join 
would be with the default resources.  then you wouldn't have to worry about 
merging, etc.  But you have the case with map or others where they wouldn't 
normally get their own stage so the question is perhaps should they, or do you 
provide something to?

Hi [~tgraves] what you mentioned above is also what we think about and try to 
figure out a way to solve it. (this problem also existed in barrier execution).

>From user point, specifying resource through RDD is the only feasible way 
>currently what I can think, though resource is bound to stage/task not 
>particular RDD. This means user could specify resources for different RDDs in 
>a single stage, Spark can only use one resource within this stage. This will 
>bring out several problems as you mentioned:

*Specify resources to which RDD*

For example {{rddA.withResource.mapPartition \{ xxx \}.collect()}} is not 
different from {{rddA.mapPartition \{ xxx \}.withResource.collect}}. Since all 
the rdds are executed in the same stage. So in the current design, not matter 
the resource is specified with {{rddA}} or mapped RDD, the result is the same.

*one to one dependency RDDs with different resources*

For example {{rddA.withResource.mapPartition \{ xxx \}.withResource.collec()}}, 
here assuming the resource request for {{rddA}} and mapped RDD is different, 
since they're running in a single stage, so we should fix such conflict.

*multiple dependencies RDDs with different resources*

For example:

{code}
val rddA = rdd.withResources.mapPartitions()

val rddB = rdd.withResources.mapPartitions()

val rddC = rddA.join(rddB)
{code}

If the resources in {{rddA}} is different from {{rddB}}, then we should also 
fix such conflicts.

Previously I proposed to use largest resource requirement to satisfy all the 
needs. But it may also cause the resource wasting, [~mengxr] mentioned to 
set/merge resources per partition to avoid waste. In the meanwhile, it there's 
a API exposed to set resources in the stage level, then this problem will not 
be existed, but Spark doesn't expose such APIs to user, the only thing user can 
specify is from RDD level, I'm still thinking of a good way to fix it.

Ok so thinking about this a bit more I slightly misread what it was applying 
to.  Really you are associated it with the new rdd that will be created (val 
rddWithGPUResult = rdd.withResources.xxx) , not the original and to regenerate 
the new rddwithGPUResult you would want to know it was created using those 
resources.  The thing that isn't clear to me is the scoping of this. 

For instance if I say I have the code

val rdd1 = {{sc.textFile("README.md")}}

val rdd2 = rdd1.withResources.mapPartitions().collect().

Does the withResources apply to the entire line up to the action?  

What if I change it to say

val rdd2 = rdd1.withResources.mapPartitions()

val res = rdd2.collect()

Does the withResources only apply to the mapPartitions, which is really what I 
think you want with some of the ml algorithms.  So we need to define what it 
applies to.  Doing something similar but would have more obvious scope:

 

val rdd2 = withResources {

   rdd1.mapPartitions()

}

The above would be very obvious to the user the scope on it.

You also have things people could do like:

val rdd1 = rdd.withResources(x).mapPartitions()

val rdd2 = rdd.withResources(y).mapPartitions()

val rdd3 rdd1.join(rdd2)

I think in this case rdd1 and rdd2 have to be individually materialized before 
you do the join for rdd3.

So its more like an implicit val rdd1 = 
rdd.withResources(x).mapPartitions().eval() . You end up with putting in some 
stage boundaries.

Have you thought about the scope and have ideas around this?

[~tgraves] This was indeed a recurring issue - the ability to modulate ask's to 
RM based on current requirements.
What you bring out is an excellent point - changing resource requirements would 
be very useful - particularly for applications with heterogenous resource 
needs. Even currently when executor_memory/executor_cores does not allign well 
with stage requirements, we end up with OOM - resulting in over-provisioning 
memory needs; resulting in suboptimal use. GPU/accelerator aware scheduler is 
an extension of the same - where we have other resources to consider.

I agree with [~tgraves] that a more general way to model this would look at all 
resources (when declaratively specified ofcourse) and use the information to 
allocate resources (from RM) and for task schedule (within spark).

yes if any requirement can't be satisfied it would use dynamic allocation to 
release and reacquire containers.    I'm not saying we have to implement those 
parts right now, I'm saying we should keep them in mind during the design of 
this so they could be added later.  I linked one old Jira that was about 
dynamically changing things. Its been brought up many times after in prs and 
just talking to customers not sure if there are other Jira as well.  Its also 
somewhat related to SPARK-20589 where people just want to configure things per 
stage.

I actually question if this should be done at the rdd level as well.  A set of 
partitions don't care what the resources are, its generally the action you are 
taking on those rdd(s). Note it could be more then one rdd.  I could do etl 
stuff on an RDD which resources would be totally different then if I ran 
tensorflow on that RDD for example.  I do realize this is being tied in with 
the barrier stuff which is on the mapPartitions

I'm not trying to be difficult and realize this Jira is more specific to the 
external ML algo's but don't want many api's for the same thing.

I unfortunately haven't thought through a good solution for this, a while back 
my initial thought was to be able to pass in that resource context to the api 
calls, this obviously gets more tricky especially with pure sql support.  I 
need to think about some more.  the above proposal for .withResources is 
definitely closer but wonder about tying to the rdd still.

cc [~irashid] [~mridulm80] who I think this has been brought up before with.

Hi [~tgraves] I'm still not sure how to handle memory per stage. Unlike MR, 
Spark shares the task runtime in a single JVM, I'm not sure how to control the 
memory usage within the JVM. Are you suggesting the similar approach like using 
GPU, when memory requirement cannot be satisfied, release the current executors 
and requesting new executors by dynamic resource allocation?

[~tgraves] Could you help link some past requests on configurable CPU/memory 
per stage? And you are suggesting making the API generalizable to those 
scenarios, but not including the feature under the scope of this proposal, 
correct?

Btw, how do you like the following API?
{code:java}
rdd.withResources
  .prefer("/gpu/k80", 2) // prefix of resource logical name, amount
  .require("/cpu", 1)
  .require("/memory", 819200)
  .require("/disk", 1){code}

but my point is exactly that, it shouldn't be yet another mechanism for this, 
why not make a generic one that can handle all resources?

Yes, I already discussed with my colleague offline, this is a valid scenario, 
but I think to achieve this we should change the current dynamic resource 
allocation mechanism Currently I marked this as a Non-Goal in this proposal, 
only focus on statically resource requesting (--executor-cores, 
--executor-gpus). I think we should support it later.

Thomas Graves commented on SPARK-24615:

I think the usage for cpu/memory is the same.  You know one job or stage has x 
number of tasks and perhaps they are caching at the time and need more memory 
or cpu. For instance look at your accelerator example. Let say I'm doing some 
etl before my ML.  Once I get to the point I want to do the ML I want to ask 
for the gpu's as well as ask for more memory during that stage because I didn't 
need more before this stage for all the etl work.  I realize you already have 
executors, but ideally spark with the cluster manager could potentially release 
the existing ones and ask for new ones with those requirements.   That is 
obviously a separate task to do the latter part but I think if we are creating 
an interface we should keep those cases in mind.

Hi [~tgraves] I'm rewriting the design doc based on the comments mentioned 
above, so temporarily make it inaccessible, sorry about it, I will reopen it.

I think it is hard to control the memory usage per stage/task, because task is 
running in the executor which shared within a JVM. For CPU, yes I think we can 
do it, but I'm not sure the usage scenario of it.

For the requirement of using different types of machine, what I can think of is 
leveraging dynamic resource allocation. For example, if user wants run some MPI 
jobs with barrier enabled, then Spark could allocate some new executors with 
accelerator resource via cluster manager (for example using node label if it is 
running on YARN). But I will not target this as a goal in this design, since a) 
it is a non-goal for barrier scheduler currently; b) it makes the design too 
complex, would be better to separate to another work.

did the design doc permissions change? I can't seem to access it now.

A few overall concerns. We are now making accelerator configurations available 
per stage, but what about cpu and memory?  It seems like if we are going to 
start making things configurable at the stage/rdd level it would be nice to be 
consistent.  People have asked for this ability in the past.

What about the case where to run some ML algorithm you would want machines of 
different types?  For instance tensorflow with a parameter server might want 
gpu nodes for the workers but the parameter server would just be a cpu.  This 
would also apply to the barrier scheduler so might cross post there.

ok, I agree, I think this SPIP should at least cover how it could be integrated

Yes, currently the user is responsible for asking yarn to get resources like 
GPU, for example like {{--num-gpus}}. 

Yes, I agree with you, the concerns you mentioned above is valid. But currently 
the design of this Jira only targets to the task level scheduling with 
accelerator resources already available. It assumes that accelerator resources 
is already got by executor and reported back to driver. Driver will schedule 
the tasks based on the available resources.

For Spark to communicate with cluster manager to request other resources like 
GPU, currently it is not covered in this design doc.

Xiangrui mentioned that Spark to communicate with cluster manager should also 
be covered in this SPIP, so I'm still under drafting.

The user is responsible for asking yarn for the right executors?  I assume 
perhaps based of the node label or something like that?  Yarn in like 3.x has 
the ability to support other resource types like gpus, it would be much more 
efficient if you can ask the resource manager for the necessary resources, is 
there plan to support that?    I also don't think its very good behavior to 
have the job just hang if user doesn't have the necessary resources.  it feels 
like that should either be fail or if it can be linked to dynamic allocation 
that would be better. 

I left some questions in the design doc.

Sorry [~tgraves] for the late response. Yes,  when requesting executors, user 
should know accelerators are required or not. If there's no satisfied 
accelerators, the job will be pending or not launched.

maybe I"m missing it but how is this working with the resource manager?

rdd.map \{  }

   .reduceByKey \{ xxx }

   .mapPartition \{ accelerator required tasks }

   .enableAccelerator()

   .collect()

 

If I asked for 200 executors up front, it has to know this at time it asks for 
them.
