Problems are entrenched • I have been working in this area since 2001 • Problems have only grown more complex/intractable • Same old Distributed Systems problems • New: Levels of indirection (remote processing, deep software stacks, VMs, etc) • Eg: Cloud monitoring and logging data (terrabytes per day) • But, no notable success stories with analyzing such data
Reduce Reduce Reduce Challenge 3: Paradigm Limitations • MapReduceparallelism: • Embarrassing/simplistic • Works for aggregate op • Simple scheduling Map Map Map
Hadoop Hadoop/Enterprise: Separate Storage Silos Hardware $$$ Cross-silo data management $$$ Periodic data ingest
What can we do ?Find Meaningful Apps • We can produce/find tons of data • Need to analyze something of vital importance to justify draining vital resources • Otherwise the simplest solution is to stop creating the problem(s)
What can we do ?Consolidate Research Agendas • Find overarching, mission critical paradigms • State of the art: MapReduce too simplistic • Develop standards, common tools and benchmarks • Integrate solutions, think holistically • Enforce accountability for data center/Cloud provider
Opportunity 1: The Brain Challenge • Started to explore Neuroscience workloads in 2010 • A Brain Summit/Workshop held at IBM TJ Watson • Started a collaboration with Stephen Strother at Baycrest a year later • An application that is both data and compute intensive • Boils down to an optimization problem in a highly parametrized search space
Opportunity 2: Guided Modeling • Performance modeling, energy modeling, anomaly modeling, biophysical modeling • All tend to be interpolations/searches/optimizations in highly parametrized spaces • Key idea: Develop a common framework that works for all • Extend the way MapReduce standardized aggregation ops • Guidance: Operator “Reduction”, “Linear Interpolation”, etc
Building models takes time Exhaustive sampling takes 11 days! High Latency 32x32=1024 sampling points Low Latency Avg. Latency Storage Memory 32 data points DB Memory 16GB Actuate a live system and take experimental samples. Sample in 512MB chunks; 15 minutes for each point
Goal: Reduce Time by Model Reuse Provide resource-to-performance mapping High Latency Low Latency Avg. Latency Storage Resources Less DB Resources More • Dynamic Resource Allocation [FAST’09] • Capacity Planning [SIGMOD’13] • What-if Queries [SIGMETRICS’10] • Anomaly Detection[SIGMETRICS’10] • Towards A Virtual Brain Model[HPCS’14]
Management Interactions Service Provider • Use less resources: Customer wants 1000 TPS. What is the most efficient (e.g., CPU/Memory) to deliver it? • Share resources: Can I place customer A’s DB along side customer B’s DB? Will their service-levels be met? Customer DBA • Use the right amount of resources: What will be the performance (e.g., query latency) if I use 8GB of RAM instead of 16GB? • Solve performance problems: I’m only getting 500 TPS. What’s wrong? Is the cloud to blame? Need to build performance models to understand
Libraries/archive of models Analytical Models No samples required Difficult to derive Fragileto maintain Gray-box Models Few samples needed Can be adapted Still need to derive Use an Ensemble of models Black-box Models Minimal assumptions Needs lots of samples Couldover-fit Knowledge driven Data driven

Ex 1: Predicting buffer pool latencies Analytical model replaced with data-driven models
Ex 3: Modeling and Job Scheduling for Brain • Data centers usually have heterogeneous structure – variety of multicores, GPUs, etc. • Different stages of application have different resource demands (CPU versus data intensive) • Job scheduling to available resources becomes non-trivial • Guided modeling helps
Functional MRI • Goal • Studying brain functionality • Procedure • Asking patients (subjects) to do a task and capturing brain slices measuring blood oxygen level. • Correlating images to identify brain activity
Functional MRI • Overall Pipeline Subject Selection & Experimental Design Data Acquisition Data Preprocessing Analysis Model Results
NPAIRS As Our Application • NPAIRS Goal: Processing images to find images correlations • Feature Extraction: A common technique in image processing applications (e.g. Face Recognition) • Using Principal Component Analysis to extract Eigen Vectors • Finding a set of Eigen Vectors which is a good representative for the whole set of subjects Machine Learning Methods, Heuristic Search, etc.

Conclusions • Big Data processing is driving a quantum leap in IT • Hampered by slow progress in data center management • We propose to investigate guided modeling • Promising preliminary results with Neuroscience workloads • 7x speedup of NPAIRS on small CPU+GPU cluster
Modeling Procedure • Get sample set and split it using 5-fold cross validation • Fit the model using 4 folds sample data • Test the model using 1 fold sample data • Try 5 type of splits, and sum the model error. • If the error is less than the threshold, stop. We found the model.
Notes • Total run time is the summary of total sampling time. Modeling time is negligible. • Use the exhaustive data set as the true value, and the fitted model to predict the value. Then compute the coefficient of determination R2.
