Agenda
• New HDFS features in Hadoop-2
– New appendable write-pipeline
– Multiple Namenode Federation
– Namenode HA
– File System Snapshots


Page 3

We have been hard at work…
• Progress is being made in many areas
– Scalability
– Performance
– Enterprise features
– Ongoing operability improvements
– Enhancements for other projects in the ecosystem

– Expand Hadoop ecosystem to more platforms and use cases

• 2192 commits in Hadoop in the last year
– Almost a million lines of changes
– ~150 contributors
– Lot of new contributors - ~80 with < 3 patches

• 350K lines of changes in HDFS and common

Building on Rock-solid Foundation
• Original design choices - simple and robust
– Single Namenode metadata server – all state in memory
– Fault Tolerance: multiple replicas, active monitoring
– Storage: Rely on OS’s file system not raw disk

• Reliability
– Over 7 9’s of data reliability, less than 0.38 failures across 25 clusters

• Operability
– Small teams can manage large clusters
• An operator per 3K node cluster

– Fast Time to repair on node or disk failure
• Minutes to an hour Vs. RAID array repairs taking many long hours

• Scalable - proven by large scale deployments not bits
– > 100 PB storage, > 400 million files, > 4500 nodes in a single cluster
– ~ 100 K nodes of HDFS in deployment and use

New Feature in Write Pipeline
• Earlier versions of HDFS
– Files were immutable
– Write-once-read-many model

• New features in Hadoop 2

Files can be reopened for append
New primitives: hflush and hsync
Read consistency
Replace datanode on failure


Page 8

HDFS hflush and hsync
• Java flush (or C++ fflush)
– forces any buffered output bytes to be written out.

• HDFS hflush
– Flush data to all the datanodes in the write pipeline
– Guarantees the data is visible for reading
– The data may be in datanodes’ memory

• HDFS sync
– Hfush with local file system sync
– May also update the file length in Namenode


Page 9

Read Consistency
• A reader may read data during write
– It can read from any datanode in the pipeline
– and then failover to any other datanode to read the same data

Single Namenode Limitations
• Namespace size is limited by the namenode memory size
– 64GB memory can support ~100m files and blocks
– Solution: Federation

• Single point of failure (SPOF)
– The service is down when the namenode is down
– Solution: HA


Page 15

Federation Cluster
• Multiple namenodes and namespace volumes in a cluster
–
–
–
–

The namenodes/namespaces are independent
Scalability by adding more namenodes/namespaces
Isolation – separating applications to their own namespaces
Client side mount tables/ViewFS for integrated views

• Block Storage as generic storage service
– Datanodes store blocks in block pools for all namespaces

File System Snapshots


Page 23

Before Snapshots…
• Deleted files cannot be restored
– Trash is buggy and not well understood
– Trash works only for CLI based deletion

• No point-in-time recovery

• No periodic snapshots to restore from
– No admin/user managed snapshots


Page 24

HDFS Snapshot

Point-in-time image of the file system
Read-only
Copy-on-write


Page 25

Use Cases

Protection against user errors
Backup
Experimental/Test setups


Page 26

Example: Periodic Snapshots for Backup
• A typical snapshot policy:
Take a snapshot in
– every 15 mins and
– every 1 hr,
– every 1 day,
– every 1 week,
– every 1 month,


keep it for 24 hrs
keep 2 days
keep 14 days
keep 3 months
keep 1 year

Page 27

Design Goal: Efficiency
• Storage efficiency
– No block data copying
– No metadata copying for unmodified files

• Processing efficiency
– No additional costs for processing current data

• Cheap snapshot creation
– Must be fast and lightweight
– Must support for a very large number of snapshots


Page 28

Design Goal: Features
• Read-only
– Files and directories in a snapshot are immutable
– Nothing can be added to or removed from directories

• Hierarchical snapshots
– Snapshots of the entire namespace
– Snapshots of subtrees

• User operation
– Users can take snapshots for their data
– Admins manage where users can take snapshots


Page 29

HDFS-2802: Snapshot Development
• Available in Hadoop 2 GA release (v2.2.0)
• Community-driven
– Special thanks to who have provided for the valuable discussion
and feedback on the feature requirements and the open questions

• 136 subtask JIRAs
– Mainly contributed by Hortonworks

• The merge patch has about 28k lines
• ~8 months of development


Page 30

Namenode Only Operation
• No complicated distributed mechanism
• Snapshot metadata stored in Namenode
• Datanodes have no knowledge of snapshots

• Block management layer also don’t know about
snapshots


Page 31

Fast Snapshot Creation
• Snapshot Creation: O(1)
– It just adds a record to an inode

Low Memory Overhead
• NameNode memory usage: O(M)
– M is the number of modified files/directories
– Additional memory is used only when modifications are made
relative to a snapshot

File Blocks Sharing
• Blocks in datanodes are not copied
– The snapshot files record the block list and the file size
– No data copying

Persistent Data Structures
• A well-known data structure for “time travel”
– Support querying previous version of the data

• Access slow down
– The additional time required for the data structure

• In traditional persistent data structures
– There is slow down on accessing current data and snapshot data

• In our implementation
– No slow down on accessing current data
– Slow down happens only on accessing snapshot data


Page 35

No Slow Down on Accessing Current Data
• The current data can be accessed directly
– Modifications are recorded in reverse chronological order

Snapshot data = Current data – Modifications

~ modifications

Easy Management
• Snapshots can be taken on any directory
– Set the directory to be snapshottable

• Support 65,536 simultaneous snapshots
• No limit on the number of snapshottable directories
– Nested snapshottable directories are currently NOT allowed


Page 37

Admin Ops
• Allow snapshots on a directory
– hdfs dfsadmin –allowSnapshot <path>

• Reset a snapshottable directory
– hdfs dfsadmin –disallowSnapshot <path>

• Example


Page 38

User Ops
• Create/delete/rename snapshots
– hdfs dfs -createSnapshot <path> [<snapshotName>]
– hdfs dfs –deleteSnapshot <path> <snapshotName>
– hdfs dfs –renameSnapshot <path> <oldName> <newName>

• Get snapshottable directory listing
– hdfs lsSnapshottableDir

• Get snapshots difference report
– hdfs snapshotDiff <path> <from> <to>


Page 39

Use snapshot paths in CLI
• All regular commands and APIs can be used against
snapshot path
– /<snapshottableDir>/.snapshot/<snapshotName>/foo/bar

• List all the files in a snapshot
– ls /test/.snapshot/s4

• List all the snapshots under that path
– ls <path>/.snapshot


Page 40

Test Snapshot Functionalities
• ~100 unit tests
• ~1.4 million generated system tests
– Covering most combination of (snapshot + rename) operations

• Automated long-running tests for months


Page 41

NFS Support
and Other Features


Page 42

NFS Support
• NFS Gateway provides NFS access to HDFS
– File browsing, Data download/upload, Data streaming
– No client-side library
– Better alternative to Hadoop + Fuse based solution
• Better consistency guarantees

• Supports NFSv3
• Stateless Gateway
– Simpler design, easy to handle failures

• Future work
– High Availability for NFS Gateway

– Move block management out from Namenode
– Support different name service, e.g. key-value store

• HDFS-3154: Immutable files
– Write-once and then read-only

• HDFS-4704: Transient files
– Tmp files will not be recorded in snapshots


Page 47

Q&A
• Myths and misinformation of HDFS
–
–
–
–
–

Not reliable (was never true)
Namenode dies, all state is lost (was never true)
Does not support disaster recovery (distcp in Hadoop0.15)
Hard to operate for new comers
Performance improvements (always ongoing)
• Major improvements in 1.2 and 2.x

– Namenode is a single point of failure
– Needs shared NFS storage for HA
– Does not have point in time recovery

Thank You!
