Cassandra Monitoring
None
Precision

Anomaly detection
Do you see the elephant being swallowed by the snake?
Agenda
Ad-hoc queries
Aggregations Fast
Machine Learning
parallel queries Step 1
+---------------+---------------+ | timestamp | sequenceId | +---------------+---------------+
Used to avoid timestamp resolution collisions To ensure sub-resolution order
Snapshot the data on overflow or timeout Ensures idempotence Sequence ID

(rich query API) Step 2 add some algebra
None
Stream Fusion for rich ad-hoc queries
What is even Stream Fusion
map filter reduce
single step mapFilterReduce
data Step data cursor = Yield data !cursor | Skip
!cursor | Done data Stream data = ∃s. Stream (cursor → Step data cursor) cursor
Stream Beginning: reading from the DB
map Yield data cursor → Yield (f cursor) cursor Skip
cursor → Skip cursor Done → Done maps :: (a → b) → Stream a → Stream b
filter Yield data cursor | p data → Yield data
cursor | otherwise → Skip cursor Skip cursor → Skip cursor Done → Done filters :: (a → Bool) → Stream a → Stream a
reduce/fold Yield x cursor → loop (f data x) cursor
Skip cursor → loop data cursor Done → z foldls :: (Monoid acc) => (acc → a → acc) → acc → Stream a → acc
Append class Monoid a where mempty :: a mappend ::
a -> a -> a -- ^ Identity of 'mappend' -- ^ An associative operation
class (Monoid intermediate) => Aggregate intermediate end where combine ::
intermediate -> end Combine
data Count = Count Int instance Monoid Count where mempty
= Count 0 mappend (Count a) (Count b) = Count $ a + b instance Aggregate Count Int where combine (Count a) = a Count Example
add some ML Step 3
Storing Models
Support Vector Machines
Hyperplane α·x - φ = 1
[ α1 α1 α1 ...αn ] ρ
Option 1: list<double>
CREATE TABLE support_vectors( path varchar, alpha list<double>, phi int, PRIMARY
KEY(path))
Problems High deserialisation overhead Need to add PK specifiers for
multiple SVs
Alternative: blob & byte buffers
Vector Representation
0 8 16 24 32 40 n*8 +----+----+----+----+----+----+----+----+ | α
| α | α | α | α | ... | α | +----+----+----+----+----+----+----+----+ byte address points 1 2 3 4 0 n
Matrix Representation
0 8 16 24 32 40 n*8 +----+----+----+----+----+---------+----+ | α
| α | α | α | α | ... | α | +----+----+----+----+----+---------+----+ 01 02 03 04 00 1n n*8+ 0 8 16 24 32 40 n*8 +----+----+----+----+----+---------+----+ | α | α | α | α | α | ... | α | +----+----+----+----+----+---------+----+ 01 02 03 04 00 1n m*n*8+ 0 8 16 24 32 40 n*8 +----+----+----+----+----+---------+----+ | α | α | α | α | α | ... | α | +----+----+----+----+----+---------+----+ m1 m2 m3 m4 m0 mn
Advantages No serialisation overhead Fast relative access Easy to go
multi-dimensional Easy to implement atomic in-memory operations
Bayesian Classifiers
P(X | blue)= Number of Blue near X Total number
of blue P(X | red)= Number of Red near X Total number of Red
[[Mean(x1), Var(x1)] [Mean(x2), Var(x3)] ... [Mean(xn), Var(xn)]]
0 8 16 +---------+---------+ | Mean(x )| Var(x ) |
+---------+---------+ 0 0 16 24 32 +---------+---------+ | Mean(x )| Var(x ) | +---------+---------+ 1 1 2n*8 (2n+1)*8 +---------+---------+ | Mean(x )| Var(x ) | +---------+---------+ n n byte address payloads

Approximate Data Structures
Bloom Filters are basically long arrays / vectors
BitSet
0 8 +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+ | 0 | 0 | 0 |
0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+ 8 16 +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+ | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+ 16 24 +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+ | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+ 24 32 +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+ | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+ bit address
Advantages 64 bits per 8-byte Long Easy to represent by
the long-array using offsets, bit shifts and masks Easy to implement atomic in-memory operations
Count-min sketches are basically int matrices
Histograms are basically long vectors
Conclusions Ad-hoc queries Parallelism Lightweight DSs representation Optimisations and good
API fits
