Proactive Online Scheduling for Shuffle Grouping in Distributed Stream Processing Systems
Shuffle grouping is a technique used by stream processing frameworks to share input load among parallel instances of stateless operators. With shuffle grouping each tuple of a stream can be assigned to any available operator instance, independently from any previous assignment. A common approach to implement shuffle grouping is to adopt a round robin policy, a simple solution that fares well as long as the tuple execution time is constant. However, such assumption rarely holds in real cases where execution time strongly depends on tuple content. As a consequence, parallel stateless operators within stream processing applications may experience unpredictable unbalance that, in the end, causes undesirable increase in tuple completion times. In this paper we propose Proactive Online Shuffle Grouping (POSG), a novel approach to shuffle grouping aimed at reducing the overall tuple completion time. POSG estimates the execution time of each tuple, enabling a proactive and online scheduling of input load to the target operator instances. Sketches are used to efficiently store the otherwise large amount of information required to schedule incoming load. We provide a probabilistic analysis and illustrate, through both simulations and a running prototype, its impact on stream processing applications

Model-driven Scheduling for Distributed Stream Processing Systems
Distributed Stream Processing frameworks are being commonly used with the
evolution of Internet of Things(IoT). These frameworks are designed to adapt to
the dynamic input message rate by scaling in/out.Apache Storm, originally
developed by Twitter is a widely used stream processing engine while others
includes Flink, Spark streaming. For running the streaming applications
successfully there is need to know the optimal resource requirement, as
over-estimation of resources adds extra cost.So we need some strategy to come
up with the optimal resource requirement for a given streaming application. In
this article, we propose a model-driven approach for scheduling streaming
applications that effectively utilizes a priori knowledge of the applications
to provide predictable scheduling behavior. Specifically, we use application
performance models to offer reliable estimates of the resource allocation
required. Further, this intuition also drives resource mapping, and helps
narrow the estimated and actual dataflow performance and resource utilization.
Together, this model-driven scheduling approach gives a predictable application
performance and resource utilization behavior for executing a given DSPS
application at a target input stream rate on distributed resources.Comment: 54 page
