Problem P • Publishers can join anywhere in the broker overlay • Closest broker • Impact • High delivery delay • High system utilization • Matching • Bandwidth • Subscription Storage S S
Motivation • High system utilization leads to overloads • High response times • Reliability issues • Critical for enterprise-grade publish/subscribe systems • GooPS • Google’s internal publish/subscribe middleware • Supermontage • Tibco’s pub/sub distribution network for Nasdaq’s quote and order processing system • GDSN (Global Data Synchronization Network) • Global pub/sub network to allow retailers and suppliers to exchange supply chain data
Goal P • Adaptively move publisher to area of matching subscribers • Algorithms should be • Dynamic • Transparent • Scalable • Robust S S

Publisher Placement Algorithms • POP • Publisher Optimistic Placement • Fully distributed design • Retrieves trace information per traced publication • Uses one metric: number of publication deliveries downstream • GRAPE • Greedy Relocation Algorithm for Publishers of Events • Computations are centralized at each publisher’s broker, makes implementing and debugging easier • Retrieves trace information per trace session • Customize on minimizing delivery delay, broker load, or a specificed combination of both • Uses two metrics: average delivery delay and total system message rate • Goal: Move publishers to where the subscribers are based on past publication traffic

GRAPE’s 3 Phases • Phase 1 • Discover location of publication deliveries by tracing live publication messages • Retrieve trace and broker performance information • Phase 2 • Pinpoint the broker that minimizes the average delivery delay or system load in a centralized manner • Phase 3 • Migrate the publisher to the broker decided in Phase 2 • Transparently with minimal routing table update and message overhead

Conclusions • POP and GRAPE moves publishers to areas of matching subscribers to • Reduce load in the system to increase scalability, and/or • Reduce average delivery delay on publication messages to improve performance • POP is suitable for pub/sub systems that strive for simplicity, such as GooPS • GRAPE is suitable for systems that strive to minimize in the extremes, such as system load in sensor networks and delivery delay in SuperMontage, or want the flexibility to adjust the performance and based on resource usage
Related Approaches • Filter-basedPublish/Subscribe: • Re-organize the broker overlay to minimize delivery delay and system load. • R.Baldoniet al. The Computer Journal, 2007. • Migliavaccaet al. DEBS 2007. • Multicast-based Publish/Subscribe: • Assign similar subscriptions to one or more cluster of servers • Suitable for static workloads • May get false-positive publication delivery • Architecture is fundamentally different than filter-based approaches • Riabovet al.

Results Summary • Under random workload • No significant performance differences between POP and GRAPE • Prioritization metric and weight has almost no impact on GRAPE’s performance • Increasing the number of publication samples on POP • Increases the response time • Increases the amount of message overhead • Increases the average broker message rate • GRAPE reduces the input util ratio by up to 68%, average message rate by 84%, average delivery delay by 68%, and message overhead relative to POP by 91%.
Phase 1 – Logging Publication History • Each broker records, per publisher, the publications delivered to local subscribers • Each trace session is identified by the message ID of first publication of that session • The trace session ID is in the header of each subsequent publication message • Gthreshold publications are traced per trace session
POP - Intro • Publisher Optimistic Placement • Goal: Move publishers to the area with highest publication delivery or concentration of matching subscribers
POP’s Methodology Overview • 3 phase algorithm: • Phase 1: Discover location of publication deliveries by probabilistically tracing live publication messages • Ongoing, efficiently with minimal network, computational, and storage overhead • Phase 2:Pinpoint the broker closest to the set of matching subscribers using trace data from phase 1 in a decentralized fashion • Phase 3: Migrate the publisher to the broker decided in phase 2 • Transparently with minimal routing table update and message overhead

Phase 2 – Decentralized Broker Selection Algorithm • Phase 2 starts when Pthresholdpublications are traced • Goal: Pinpoint the broker that is closest to highest concentration of matching subscribers • Using trace information from only a subset of brokers • The Next Best Broker condition: • The next best neighboring broker is the one whose number of downstream subscribers is greater than the sum of all other neighbors' downstream subscribers plus the local broker's subscribers.

Phase 2 – Minimizing Load with Weight P% • Calculate the total broker message rate if the publisher is positioned at each of the downstream brokers • Normalize, sort, and drop candidates with total message rate greater than 100 - P. • Get publisher-to-broker ping times on remaining candidates • Calculate the average delivery delay if the publisher is positioned at each of the remaining downstream brokers • Select the candidate that yields the lowest average delivery delay.
