Hinweis der Redaktion
- Apache Kafka, Apache Cassandra and Kubernetes are open source big data technologies enabling applications and business operations to scale massively and rapidly. While Kafka and Cassandra underpins the data layer of the stack providing capability to stream, disseminate, store and retrieve data at very low latency, Kubernetes is a container orchestration technology that helps in automated application deployment and scaling of application clusters. In this presentation, we will reveal how we architected a massive scale deployment of a streaming data pipeline with Kafka and Cassandra to cater to an example Anomaly detection application running on a Kubernetes cluster and generating and processing massive amount of events. Anomaly detection is a method used to detect unusual events in an event stream. It is widely used in a range of applications such as financial fraud detection, security, threat detection, website user analytics, sensors, IoT, system health monitoring, etc. When such applications operate at massive scale generating millions or billions of events, they impose significant computational, performance and scalability challenges to anomaly detection algorithms and data layer technologies. We will demonstrate the scalability, performance and cost effectiveness of Apache Kafka, Cassandra and Kubernetes, with results from our experiments allowing the Anomaly detection application to scale to 19 Billion anomaly checks per day.

- Anomaly detection needs to be fast, under 1s
- The headlines 50 years ago may have been about men on the moon, but the success of the program depended on many women
- Anomaly detection needs to be fast, under 1s
- Anomaly detection needs to be fast, under 1s, streams processing
- Anomaly detection needs to be scalable, increasing key requires more storage, size and processing capacity. Need scalable database
- Anomaly detection needs to be scalable, for high throughputs, linearly scalable for more processing capacity, ability to handle load spikes (buffer use case), and no upper limit And affordable, i.e. elastic, scale up and down on demand, have correct resources based on actual load (not too many or too few)
- And affordable, i.e. linear, elastic, scale up and down on demand, have just sufficient resources based on actual load (not too many or too few) For experiments, want to spin resources up and down (provision, scale, delete)

- A simple type of anomaly detection is called Break or Changepoint analysis. This takes a stream of events and analyses them to see if the most recent events are “different” to previous ones. We picked a simple version to start with (CUSUM). It only uses data for a single variable at a time, which could be something like an account number, or an IP address.
- This is the prototype application design The Anomaly detection pipeline is written in Java and runs in a single multi-threaded process. It consists of a Kafka consumer which gets each new event and passes it to A Cassandra client, which writes the event to Cassandra, gets the previous 50 rows for the ID, runs the detector and decides if there’s an anomaly or not. Thread pools? Kafka Consumer pool useful to constrain the number of Kafka Consumers, and thereby constrain the number of Kafka partitions which are expensive!
- What is Kafka? Kafka is a distributed streams processing system, it allows distributed producers to send messages to distributed consumers via a Kafka cluster.
- The next graph shows the Kafka producer ramping up (from 1 to 9 Kubernetes Pods), with 2 minutes load time, peaking at 2.3M events/s (this time in Grafana). Note that because each metric was being retrieved from multiple Pods I had to view them as stacked graphs to get the total metric value for all the Pods. This graph shows the anomaly check rate reaching 220,000 events/s and continuing (until all the events are processed). Prometheus is gathering this metric from 100 Kubernetes Pods.
- After also instrumenting the application with OpenTracing, here’s the Jaeger dependencies view (there are other views which show single traces in detail) which shows the topology of the system, including tracing across process boundaries (producers to consumers):
- The Anomalia Machina pipeline is relatively simple, so I wondered how well OpenTracing would work for discovering and visualising more complex Kafka topologies. For example, would it be possible to visualise the topology of data flow across many Kafka topics? I wrote a simple Markov chain simulator which allows you to choose the number of source topics, intermediate topics, and sink topics, and a graph density, and then produces random traces. The code is in this gist. Here’s the dependency graph for a run of this code. In practice you would also want to add information about the Kafka producers and consumers (either as extra nodes, or by labelling the edges). There’s also a cool Force directed graph view which allows you to select a node and highlight the dependent nodes.

- Knobs for scaling
- Scaling from 3 to ? Cassandra nodes: Initial method was just to increase number of Worker Pods with no tuning of application parameters. This resulted in blue line eeek. Ended up tuning each configuration (number of Worker Pods + Cassandra Nodes), including thread pool sizes and C* connections. Had to optimise the anomaly detection pipeline to minimize: Cassandra connections, and Kafka partitions By tuning the number of pipeline worker Pods in Kubernetes and the application thread pools Initially sub-linear scalability (blue line), eventually close to perfect scalability (orange line)

- This graph shows that it only costs around $1,000 a day for the basic infrastructure using on-demand AWS instances. This graph also shows that the system can easily be scaled up or down to match different business requirements, and the infrastructure costs will scale proportionally. For example, the smallest system we ran still checked 1.5 Billion events per day, for a cost of only $100/day for the AWS infrastructure.

Decreasing the compression chunk size to 1KB (the smallest possible value) resulted in higher CPU usage and an increase in throughput to 9,000 TPS. The Apache Cassandra documentation explains the benefits of compression as follows: “Compression’s primary benefit is that it reduces the amount of data written to disk. Not only does the reduced size save in storage requirements, it often increases read and write throughput, as the CPU overhead of compressing data is faster than the time it would take to read or write the larger volume of uncompressed data from disk.” Kafka monitoring and tuning? Cost with scale, looks good from $100 to $1000 from 3 to 48 Clarify flow to emphasize that data is read from Kafka with consumer Could we automate the tuning? I.e. feedback loop between monitoring and k8, how to set threads? Add Prometheus monitoring architecture/story to both talks? Did we think about getting rid of C*? Yes, here’s why not (streams, not random access via IDs, so need to read and filter, or have 1 topic per Id (but millions), or use streams and C* as state store????!!!
