Graph integration of structured, semistructured and unstructured data for data journalism

Angelos Christos Anadiotis, Jingmao You

Digital data is a gold mine for modern journalism. However, datasets which interest journalists are extremely heterogeneous, ranging from highly structured (relational databases), semi-structured (JSON, XML, HTML), graphs (e.g., RDF), and text. Journalists (and other classes of users lacking advanced IT expertise, such as most non-governmental-organizations, or small public administrations) need to be able to make sense of such heterogeneous corpora, even if they lack the ability to define and deploy custom extract-transform-load workflows, especially for dynamically varying sets of data sources. We describe a complete approach for integrating dynamic sets of heterogeneous datasets along the lines described above: the challenges we faced to make such graphs useful, allow their integration to scale, and the solutions we proposed for these problems. Our approach is implemented within the ConnectionLens system; we validate it through a set of experiments. (C) 2021 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

A system design for elastically scaling transaction processing engines in virtualized servers

Anastasia Ailamaki, Angelos Christos Anadiotis, Raja Appuswamy, Hillel Avni

Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) deployments are migrating from on-premise to cloud settings in order to exploit the elasticity of cloud infrastructure which allows them to adapt to workload variations. However, cloud adaptation comes at the cost of redesigning the engine, which has led to the introduction of several, new, cloud-based transaction processing systems mainly focusing on: (i) the transaction coordination protocol, (ii) the data partitioning strategy, and, (iii) the resource isolation across multiple tenants. As a result, standalone OLTP engines cannot be easily deployed with an elastic setting in the cloud and they need to migrate to another, specialized deployment. In this paper, we focus on workload variations that can be addressed by modern multi-socket, multi-core servers and we present a system design for providing fine-grained elasticity to multi-tenant, scale-up OLTP deployments. We introduce novel components to the virtualization software stack that enable on-demand addition and removal of computing and memory resources. We provide a bi-directional, low-overhead communication stack between the virtual machine and the hypervisor, which allows the former to adapt to variations coming both from the workload and the resource availability. We show that our system achieves NUMA-aware, millisecond-level, stateful and fine-grained elasticity, while it is not intrusive to the design of state-of-the-art, in-memory OLTP engines. We evaluate our system through novel use cases demonstrating that scale-up elasticity increases resource utilization, while allowing tenants to pay for actual use of resources and not just their reservation.

Adaptive HTAP through Elastic Resource Scheduling

Anastasia Ailamaki, Angelos Christos Anadiotis, Periklis Chrysogelos, Syed Mohammad Aunn Raza

Modern Hybrid Transactional/Analytical Processing (HTAP) systems use an integrated data processing engine that performs analytics on fresh data, which are ingested from a transactional engine. HTAP systems typically consider data freshness at design time, and are optimized for a fixed range of freshness requirements, addressed at a performance cost for either OLTP or OLAP. The data freshness and the performance requirements of both engines, however, may vary with the workload. We approach HTAP as a scheduling problem, addressed at runtime through elastic resource management. We model an HTAP system as a set of three individual engines: an OLTP, an OLAP and a Resource and Data Exchange (RDE) engine. We devise a scheduling algorithm which traverses the HTAP design spectrum through elastic resource management, to meet the workload data freshness requirements. We propose an in-memory system design which is non-intrusive to the current state-of-art OLTP and OLAP engines, and we use it to evaluate the performance of our approach. Our evaluation shows that the performance benefit of our system for OLAP queries increases over time, reaching up to 50% compared to static schedules for 100 query sequences, while maintaining a small, and controlled, drop in the OLTP throughput.
