The scalability of [YARN](./YARN.html) is determined by the Resource Manager, and is proportional to number of nodes, active applications, active containers, and frequency of heartbeat (of both nodes and applications). Lowering heartbeat can provide scalability increase, but is detrimental to utilization (see old Hadoop 1.x experience). +This document described a federation-based approach to scale a single YARN cluster to tens of thousands of nodes, by federating multiple YARN sub-clusters. The proposed approach is to divide a large (10-100k nodes) cluster into smaller units called sub-clusters, each with its own YARN RM and compute nodes. The federation system will stitch these sub-clusters together and make them appear as one large YARN cluster to the applications. +The applications running in this federated environment will see a single massive YARN cluster and will be able to schedule tasks on any node of the federated cluster. Under the hood, the federation system will negotiate with sub-clusters resource managers and provide resources to the application. The goal is to allow an individual job to âspanâ sub-clusters seamlessly. + +This design is structurally scalable, as we bound the number of nodes each RM is responsible for, and appropriate policies, will try to ensure that the majority of applications will reside within a single sub-cluster, thus the number of applications each RM will see is also bounded. This means we could almost linearly scale, by simply adding sub-clusters (as very little coordination is needed across them). +This architecture can provide very tight enforcement of scheduling invariants within each sub-cluster (simply inherits from YARN), while continuous rebalancing across subcluster will enforce (less strictly) that these properties are also respected at a global level (e.g., if a sub-cluster loses a large number of nodes, we could re-map queues to other sub-clusters to ensure users running on the impaired sub-cluster are not unfairly affected). + +Federation is designed as a âlayerâ atop of existing YARN codebase, with limited changes in the core YARN mechanisms. + +Assumptions: +* We assume reasonably good connectivity across sub-clusters (e.g., we are not looking to federate across DC yet, though future investigations of this are not excluded). +* We rely on HDFS federation (or equivalently scalable DFS solutions) to take care of scalability of the store side. + + +Architecture +------------ +OSS YARN has been known to scale up to about few thousand nodes. The proposed architecture leverages the notion of federating a number of such smaller YARN clusters, referred to as sub-clusters, into a larger federated YARN cluster comprising of tens of thousands of nodes. +The applications running in this federated environment see a unified large YARN cluster and will be able to schedule tasks on any nodes in the cluster. Under the hood, the federation system will negotiate with sub-clusters RMs and provide resources to the application. The logical architecture in Figure 1 shows the main components that comprise the federated cluster, which are described below. + + + +###YARN Sub-cluster +A sub-cluster is a YARN cluster with up to few thousands nodes. The exact size of the sub-cluster will be determined considering ease of deployment/maintenance, alignment +with network or availability zones and general best practices. + +The sub-cluster YARN RM will run with work-preserving high-availability turned-on, i.e., we should be able to tolerate YARN RM, NM failures with minimal disruption. +If the entire sub-cluster is compromised, external mechanisms will ensure that jobs are resubmitted in a separate sub-cluster (this could eventually be included in the federation design). + +Sub-cluster is also the scalability unit in a federated environment. We can scale out the federated environment by adding one or more sub-clusters. + +*Note*: by design each sub-cluster is a fully functional YARN RM, and its contribution to the federation can be set to be only a fraction of its overall capacity, +i.e. a sub-cluster can have a âpartialâ commitment to the federation, while retaining the ability to give out part of its capacity in a completely local way. + +###Router +YARN applications are submitted to one of the Routers, which in turn applies a routing policy (obtained from the Policy Store), queries the State Store for the sub-cluster +URL and redirects the application submission request to the appropriate sub-cluster RM. We call the sub-cluster where the job is started the âhome sub-clusterâ, and we call +âsecondary sub-clustersâ all other sub-cluster a job is spanning on. +The Router exposes the ApplicationClientProtocol to the outside world, transparently hiding the presence of multiple RMs. To achieve this the Router also persists the mapping +between the application and its home sub-cluster into the State Store. This allows Routers to be soft-state while supporting user requests cheaply, as any Router can recover +this application to home sub-cluster mapping and direct requests to the right RM without broadcasting them. For performance caching and session stickiness might be advisable. + +###AMRMProxy +The AMRMProxy is a key component to allow the application to scale and run across sub-clusters. The AMRMProxy runs on all the NM machines and acts as a proxy to the +YARN RM for the AMs by implementing the ApplicationMasterProtocol. Applications will not be allowed to communicate with the sub-cluster RMs directly. They are forced +by the system to connect only to the AMRMProxy endpoint, which would provide transparent access to multiple YARN RMs (by dynamically routing/splitting/merging the communications). +At any one time, a job can span across one home sub-cluster and multiple secondary sub-clusters, but the policies operating in the AMRMProxy try to limit the footprint of each job +to minimize overhead on the scheduling infrastructure (more in section on scalability/load). The interceptor chain architecture of the ARMMProxy is showing in figure. + + + +*Role of AMRMProxy* +1. Protect the sub-cluster YARN RMs from misbehaving AMs. The AMRMProxy can prevent DDOS attacks by throttling/killing AMs that are asking too many resources. +2. Mask the multiple YARN RMs in the cluster, and can transparently allow the AM to span across sub-clusters. All container allocations are done by the YARN RM framework that consists of the AMRMProxy fronting the home and other sub-cluster RMs. +3. Intercepts all the requests, thus it can enforce application quotas, which would not be enforceable by sub-cluster RM (as each only see a fraction of the AM requests). +4. The AMRMProxy can enforce load-balancing / overflow policies. + +###Global Policy Generator +Global Policy Generator overlooks the entire federation and ensures that the system is configured and tuned properly all the time. +A key design point is that the cluster availability does not depends on an always-on GPG. The GPG operates continuously but out-of-band from all cluster operations, +and provide us with a unique vantage point, that allows to enforce global invariants, affect load balancing, trigger draining of sub-clusters that will undergo maintenance, etc. +More precisely the GPG will update user capacity allocation-to-subcluster mappings, and more rarely change the policies that run in Routers, AMRMProxy (and possible RMs). + +In case the GPG is not-available, cluster operations will continue as of the last time the GPG published policies, and while a long-term unavailability might mean some +of the desirable properties of balance, optimal cluster utilization and global invariants might drift away, compute and access to data will not be compromised. + +*NOTE*: In the current implementation the GPG is a manual tuning process, simply exposed via a CLI (YARN-3657). + + +###Federation State-Store +The Federation State defines the additional state that needs to be maintained to loosely couple multiple individual sub-clusters into a single large federated cluster. This includes the following information: + +####Sub-cluster Membership +The member YARN RMs continuously heartbeat to the state store to keep alive and publish their current capability/load information. This information is used by the +Global Policy Generator (GPG) to make proper policy decisions. Also this information can be used by routers to select the best home sub-cluster. This mechanism allows +us to dynamically grow/shrink the âcluster fleetâ by adding or removing sub-clusters. This also allows for easy maintenance of each sub-cluster. This is new functionality +that needs to be added to the YARN RM but the mechanisms are well understood as itâs similar to individual YARN RM HA. + +####Applicationâs Home Sub-cluster +The sub-cluster on which the Application Master (AM) runs is called the Applicationâs âhome sub-clusterâ. The AM is not limited to resources from the home sub-cluster +but can also request resources from other sub-clusters, referred to as secondary sub-clusters. +The federated environment will be configured and tuned periodically such that when an AM is placed on a sub-cluster, it should be able to find most of the resources +on the home sub-cluster. Only in certain cases it should need to ask for resources from other sub-clusters. + +###Federation Policy Store +The federation Policy Store is a logically separate store (while it might be backed +by the same physical component), which contains information about how applications and +resource requests are routed to different sub-clusters. The current implementation provides +several policies, ranging from random/hashing/roundrobin/priority to more sophisticated +ones which account for sub-cluster load, and request locality needs. + + +Running Applications across Sub-Clusters +---------------------------------------- + +When an application is submitted, the system will determine the most appropriate sub-cluster to run the application, +which we call as the applicationâs home sub-cluster. All the communications from the AM to the RM will be proxied via +the AMRMProxy running locally on the AM machine. +AMRMProxy exposes the same ApplicationMasterService protocol endpoint as the YARN RM. The AM can request containers +using the locality information exposed by the storage layer. In ideal case, the application will be placed on a sub-cluster +where all the resources and data required by the application will be available, but if it does need containers on nodes in +other sub-clusters, AMRMProxy will negotiate with the RMs of those sub-clusters transparently and provide the resources to +the application, thereby enabling the application to view the entire federated environment as one massive YARN cluster. +AMRMProxy, Global Policy Generator (GPG) and Router work together to make this happen seamlessly. + + + + +The figure shows a sequence diagram for the following job execution flow: +1. The Router receives an application submission request that is complaint to the YARN Application Client Protocol. +2. The router interrogates a routing table / policy to choose the âhome RMâ for the job (the policy configuration is received from the state-store on heartbeat). +3. The router queries the membership state to determine the endpoint of the home RM. +4. The router then redirects the application submission request to the home RM. +5. The router updates the application state with the home sub-cluster identifier. +6. Once the application is submitted to the home RM, the stock YARN flow is triggered, i.e. the application is added to the scheduler queue and its AM started in the home sub-cluster, on the first NodeManager that has available resources. + a. During this process, the AM environment is modified by indicating that the address of the AMRMProxy as the YARN RM to talk to. + b. The security tokens are also modified by the NM when launching the AM, so that the AM can only talk with the AMRMProxy. Any future communication from AM to the YARN RM is mediated by the AMRMProxy. +7. The AM will then request containers using the locality information exposed by HDFS. +8. Based on a policy the AMRMProxy can impersonate the AM on other sub-clusters, by submitting an Unmanaged AM, and by forwarding the AM heartbeats to relevant sub-clusters. +9. The AMRMProxy will use both locality information and a pluggable policy configured in the state-store to decide whether to forward the resource requests received by the AM to the Home RM or to one (or more) Secondary RMs. In Figure 1, we show the case in which the AMRMProxy decides to forward the request to the secondary RM. +10. The secondary RM will provide the AMRMProxy with valid container tokens to start a new container on some node in its sub-cluster. This mechanism ensures that each sub-cluster uses its own security tokens and avoids the need for a cluster wide shared secret to create tokens. +11. The AMRMProxy forwards the allocation response back to the AM. +12. The AM starts the container on the target NodeManager (on sub-cluster 2) using the standard YARN protocols. + + + + +Configuration +------------- + + To configure the `YARN` to use the `Federation`, set the following property in the **conf/yarn-site.xml**: + +###EVERYWHERE: + +These are common configurations that should appear in the **conf/yarn-site.xml** at each machine in the federation. + + +| Property | Example | Description | +|:---- |:---- | +|`yarn.federation.enabled` | `true` | Whether federation is enabled or not | +|`yarn.federation.state-store.class` | `org.apache.hadoop.yarn.server.federation.store.impl.SQLFederationStateStore` | The type of state-store to use. | +|`yarn.federation.state-store.sql.url` | `jdbc:sqlserver://<host>:<port>;database` | For SQLFederationStateStore the name of the DB where the state is stored. | +|`yarn.federation.state-store.sql.jdbc-class` | `com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDataSource` | For SQLFederationStateStore the jdbc class to use. | +|`yarn.federation.state-store.sql.username` | `<dbuser>` | For SQLFederationStateStore the username for the DB connection. | +|`yarn.federation.state-store.sql.password` | `<dbpass>` | For SQLFederationStateStore the password for the DB connection. | +|`yarn.resourcemanager.cluster-id` | `<unique-subcluster-id>` | The unique subcluster identifier for this RM (same as the one used for HA). | + + +Optional: + +| Property | Example | Description | +|:---- |:---- | +|`yarn.federation.failover.enabled` | `true` | Whether should retry considering RM failover within each subcluster. | +|`yarn.federation.blacklist-subclusters` | `<subcluster-id>` | A list of black-listed sub-clusters, useful to disable a sub-cluster | +|`yarn.federation.policy-manager` | `org.apache.hadoop.yarn.server.federation.policies.manager.WeightedLocalityPolicyManager` | The choice of policy manager determines how Applications and ResourceRequests are routed through the system. | +|`yarn.federation.policy-manager-params` | `<binary>` | The payload that configures the policy.
