Intro to Apache Kafka I gave at the Big Data Meetup in Geneva in June 2016. Covers the basics and gets into some more advanced topics. Includes demo and source code to write clients and unit tests in Java (GitHub repo on the last slides).

- 29. Topic Partitioning Producer Application Consumer Application Partition 1 Topic writes reads Brokers Brokers Partition 2 Partition N Brokers

- 31. Kafka Guaranties ● Messages sent by a producer to a particular topic partition will be appended in the order they are sent. ● A consumer instance sees messages in the order they are stored in the log. ● For a topic with replication factor N, Kafka will tolerate up to N-1 server failures without losing any messages committed to a topic.
- 32. Durability Guarantees Producer can configure acknowledgements: ● <= 0.8.2: request.required.acks ● >= 0.9.0: acks Value Impact Durability 0 Producer doesn’t wait for leader weak 1 (default) Producer waits for leader. Leader sends ack when message written to log. No wait for followers. medium all (0.9.0) -1 (0.8.2) Producer waits for leader. Leader sends ack when all In-Sync-Replica have acknowledged. strong
- 33. Consumer Offset Management ● < 0.8.2: Zookeeper only ○ Zookeeper not meant for heavy write => scalability issues ● >= 0.8.2: Kafka Topic (__consumer_offset) ○ Configurable: offsets.storage=kafka ● Documentation show how to migrate offsets from Zookeeper to Kafka http://kafka.apache.org/082/documentation.html#offsetmigration
- 34. Data Retention 3 ways to configure it: ● Time based ● Size based ● Log compaction based Broker Configuration log.retention.bytes={ -1|...} log.retention.{ms,minutes,hours}=... log.retention.check.interval.ms=... log.cleanup.policy={delete|compact} log.cleaner.enable={ false|true} log.cleaner.threads=1 log.cleaner.io.max.bytes.per.second=Double.MaxValue log.cleaner.backoff.ms=15000 log.cleaner.delete.retention.ms=1d Topic Configuration cleanup.policy=... delete.retention.ms=... ...

- 39. Kafka Performance - Theory ● Efficient Storage ○ Fast sequential write and read ○ Leverages OS page cache (i.e. RAM) ○ Avoid storing data twice in JVM and in OS cache (better perf on startup) ○ Caches 28-30GB data in 32GB machine ○ Zero copy I/O using IBM’s sendfile API (https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/j-zerocopy/) ● Batching of messages + compression ● Broker doesn’t hold client state ● Dependent on persistence guaranties request.required.acks

- 46. Kafka Versions 0.8.2 (2014.12) ● New Producer API ● Delete topic ● Scalable offset writes 0.9.x (2015.10) ● Security ○ Encryption ○ Kerberos ○ ACLs ● Quotas (client rate control) ● Kafka Connect 0.10.x (2016.03) ● Kafka Streams ● Rack Awareness ● More SASL features ● Timestamp in messages ● API to better manage Connectors
- 47. Starting with Kafka: Jay Kreps’ Recommendations ● Start with a single cluster ● Only a few non critical, limited usecases ● Pick a single data format for a given organisation ○ Avro ■ Good language support ■ One schema per topic (message validation, documentation...) ■ Supports schema evolution ■ Data embeds schema ■ Make Data Scientists job easier ■ Put some thoughts into field naming conventions Source: http://www.confluent.io/blog/stream-data-platform-2/
- 48. Conclusions ● Easy to start with for a PoC ● Maybe not so easy to build a production system from scratch ● Must have serious monitoring in place (see Yahoo, Confluent, DataDog) ● Vibrant community, fast pace technology ● Videos of Kafka Summit are online: http://kafka-summit.org/sessions/ https://github.com/samuel-kerrien/kafka-demo
