Since Microsoft moves from windows to cloud in the last 10 years, he is more welcome to opensource especially Linux. I always hate to use windows expect when playing games. Every time, I have to take long time to reinstall all apps. Because not like Linux, which provides great package management tools, like dpkg, snapd, pacman, etc, windows app installation is clicky too much.
Now, there is a new tool named winget. Similar to dpkg or apt command, we only need to indicate the name of software. It will install from network. Not all software are supported right now, but the most common ones will be found there. Blew, I installed Anaconda for example. We can easy find others by using winget search <name>.
In official document, they give a piece of PowerShell script to install powertoys and terminal in one piece.
@echo off
Echo Install Powertoys and Terminal
REM Powertoys
winget install Microsoft.Powertoys
if %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 Echo Powertoys installed successfully.
REM Terminal
winget install Microsoft.WindowsTerminal
if %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 Echo Terminal installed successfully. %ERRORLEVEL%
Dr.Kazuaki Ishizaki gives a great summary of spark 3.0 features in his presentation “SQL Performance Improvements at a Glance in Apache Spark 3.0” . It is very helpful for us to understand how these new features work and where we can use it.
New explain format
Spark 3.0 provides a terse format explain with detail information.
extended. It equals df.explain(true) in spark 2.4, which generates parsed logical plan, analyzed logical plan , optimized logical plan and physical plan.
codegen. Generates java code for the statement.
code. If plan stats are available, it generates a logical plan and the states.
formatted. This is most useful in my mind. It has two sections, a physical plan outline with simple tree format and node details.
-- example from spark document
-- Using Formatted
EXPLAIN FORMATTED select k, sum(v) from values (1, 2), (1, 3) t(k, v) group by k;
+----------------------------------------------------+
| plan|
+----------------------------------------------------+
| == Physical Plan ==
* HashAggregate (4)
+- Exchange (3)
+- * HashAggregate (2)
+- * LocalTableScan (1)
(1) LocalTableScan [codegen id : 1]
Output: [k#19, v#20]
(2) HashAggregate [codegen id : 1]
Input: [k#19, v#20]
(3) Exchange
Input: [k#19, sum#24L]
(4) HashAggregate [codegen id : 2]
Input: [k#19, sum#24L]

As these syntax are not exactly match with spark, the following list is help to explain the “meaning of spark explain”
scan. Basic file access. In spark 3.0, it can achieve some predication tasks before load data in.
ColumnPruning: select the columns only needed.
Partitionfilters: only grab data from certain partitions
Pushedfilters: filter fields that can be directly to file scan(push down prediction)
filter. Due to pushdown prediction, lots of filter work has moved to scan stage, so you may not find filter in explain matching with query. But there are still some operations like first, last, we need to do it in filter.
Pushdown prediction.
Combine filters: combines two neighboring operations into one
Infer filter from constraints. create a new filter form a join condition. we will talk about it in next section “dynamic partitioning pruning”.
prune filter.
project. Select operation for columns, like select, drop, withColumn.
exchange. shuffle operation, like sortmerge, shuffle hash
columnarToRow. a transition between columnar and row execution.
All type of Join hints
Spark 2.4 only supports broadcast, while spark 3.0 support all type of join hints
Spark uses two types of hints, one is partition hints, other is join hints. Since spark 3.0, join hints support all type of join.
Broadcast join. which is famous join for joining small table(dimension table) with big table(fact table) by avoiding costly data shuffling.
table less than 10MB is broadcast across all nodes to avoid shuffling
two steps: broadcast –> hash join
spark.sql.autoBroadcastJoinThreshold
shuffle merge join
Sort merge join perform the Sort operation first and then merges the datasets.
steps:
shuffle. 2 big tables are partitioned as per the join keys across the partitions.
sort. sort the data within each partition
merge. join the 2 sorted and partitioned data.
work well when
two big tables as it doesn’t need load all data into memory like hash join
highly scalable approach
shuffle hash join
Shuffle hash join shuffles the data based on join key, so that rows related to same keys from both tables will be moved on to same node and then perform the join.
works well when
dataframes are distributed evenly with the keys
dataframes has enough number of keys for parallelism
memory is enough for hash join
supported for all join except full outer join
spark.sql.join.preferSortMergeJoin = false
shuffle replicate nl
cartesian product(similar to SQL) of the two relations is calculated to evaluate join.
Adaptive query execution(AQE)
AQE is automatic feature enabled for strategy choose in the running time.
Set the number of reducers to avoid wasting memory and I/O resource. Dynamically coalescing shuffle partitions.
AQE can merge serval short partitions into one reducer to even the pressure
select better join strategy to improve performance
dynamically choose from 3 join strategy. broadcast has best performance, but static strategy choose is not accurate sometimes.
spark.sql.adaptive.enabled=true
AQE get the size of join table dynamically, so that it can choose broadcast rather then shuffle operation.
Optimize skewed join to avoid imbalance workload
the large partition is split into multiple partitions
spark.sql.adaptive.skewJoin.enabled=true
AQE split skewed partition into multiple partitions.
Dynamic partitioning pruning
We already peek part of it in explain format. Spark 3.0 is smart that avoid to read unnecessary partitions in a join operations by using results of filter operations in another table. for example,
SELECT * FROM dim_iteblog
JOIN fact_iteblog
ON (dim_iteblog.partcol = fact_iteblog.partcol)
WHERE dim_iteblog.othercol > 10
In this case, spark will do the prune prediction and add a new filter for join table “fact_iteblog”.
Enhanced nested column pruning & pushdown
nested column pruning can be applied to all operators, like limits, repartition
select col2._1 from(select col2 from tp limit1000)
parquet can apply pushdown filter and can read part of columns
