Apache Spark 1.5.0正式发布

  Spark 1.5.0是1.x线上的第6个发行版。这个版本共处理了来自230+contributors和80+机构的1400+个patches。Spark 1.5的许多改变都是围绕在提升Spark的性能、可用性以及操作稳定性。Spark 1.5.0焦点在Tungsten项目,它主要是通过对低层次的组建进行优化从而提升Spark的性能。Spark 1.5版本为Streaming增加了operational特性,比如支持backpressure。另外比较重要的更新就是新增加了一些机器学习算法和工具,并扩展了Spark R的相关API。主要做了以下修改:

遗弃、移出、Configs和行为变化

Spark Core

  1、DAGScheduler中的local task execution模块被移出
  2、Driver和executor的默认内存从512m升到1G
  3、JVM中MaxPermSize的默认配置从128m升到256m
  4、spark-shell的默认日志级别从INFO提升到WARN
  5、基于NIO的ConnectionManager已经遗弃,并且将在1.6版本中移出。

Spark SQL & DataFrames

  1、Optimized execution using manually managed memory (Tungsten) is now enabled by default, along with code generation for expression evaluation. These features can both be disabled by setting spark.sql.tungsten.enabled to false.
  2、Parquet schema merging is no longer enabled by default. It can be re-enabled by setting spark.sql.parquet.mergeSchema to true.
  3、Resolution of strings to columns in Python now supports using dots (.) to qualify the column or access nested values. For example df[‘table.column.nestedField’]. However, this means that if your column name contains any dots you must now escape them using backticks (e.g., table.`column.with.dots`.nested).
  4、In-memory columnar storage partition pruning is on by default. It can be disabled by setting spark.sql.inMemoryColumnarStorage.partitionPruning to false.
  5、Unlimited precision decimal columns are no longer supported, instead Spark SQL enforces a maximum precision of 38. When inferring schema from BigDecimal objects, a precision of (38, 18) is now used. When no precision is specified in DDL then the default remains Decimal(10, 0).
  6、Timestamps are now processed at a precision of 1us, rather than 100ns.
  7、Sum function returns null when all input values are nulls (null before 1.4, 0 in 1.4).
  8、In the sql dialect, floating point numbers are now parsed as decimal. HiveQL parsing remains unchanged.
  9、The canonical name of SQL/DataFrame functions are now lower case (e.g. sum vs SUM).
  10、It has been determined that using the DirectOutputCommitter when speculation is enabled is unsafe and thus this output committer will not be used by parquet when speculation is on, independent of configuration.
  11、JSON data source will not automatically load new files that are created by other applications (i.e. files that are not inserted to the dataset through Spark SQL). For a JSON persistent table (i.e. the metadata of the table is stored in Hive Metastore), users can use REFRESH TABLE SQL command or HiveContext’s refreshTable method to include those new files to the table. For a DataFrame representing a JSON dataset, users need to recreate the DataFrame and the new DataFrame will include new files.

Spark Streaming

  1、新的实验性backpressure特性可以通过将spark.streaming.backpressure.enabled设置为true来开启。
  2、Write Ahead Log does not need to be abled for Kinesis streams. The updated Kinesis receiver keeps track of Kinesis sequence numbers received in each batch, and uses that information re-read the necessary data while recovering from failures.
  3、The number of times the receivers are relaunched on failure are not limited by the max Spark task attempts. The system will always try to relaunch receivers after failures until the StreamingContext is stopped.
  4、Improved load balancing of receivers across the executors, even after relaunching.
  5、Enabling checkpointing when using queueStream throws exception as queueStream cannot be checkpointed. However, we found this to break certain existing apps. So this change will be reverted in Spark 1.5.1.

MLlib

  1、In the spark.mllib package, there are no breaking API changes but some behavior changes:
    1.1、SPARK-9005: RegressionMetrics.explainedVariance returns the average regression sum of squares.
    1.2、SPARK-8600: NaiveBayesModel.labels become sorted.
    1.3、SPARK-3382: GradientDescent has a default convergence tolerance 1e-3, and hence iterations might end earlier than 1.4.
  2、In the experimental spark.ml package, there exists one breaking API change and one behavior change:

    2.1、SPARK-9268: Java’s varargs support is removed from Params.setDefault due to a Scala compiler bug.
    2.2、SPARK-10097: Evaluator.isLargerBetter is added to indicate metric ordering. Metrics like RMSE no longer flip signs as in 1.4.
