[DISCUSS] Adding support for Hadoop 3 and removing flink-shaded-hadoop
Hi all,
for the upcoming 1.11 release, I started looking into adding support for
Hadoop 3[1] for Flink. I have explored a little bit already into adding a
shaded hadoop 3 into “flink-shaded”, and some mechanisms for switching
between Hadoop 2 and 3 dependencies in the Flink build.
However, Chesnay made me aware that we could also go a different route: We
let Flink depend on vanilla Hadoop dependencies and stop providing shaded
fat jars for Hadoop through “flink-shaded”.
Why?
- Maintaining properly shaded Hadoop fat jars is a lot of work (we have
insufficient test coverage for all kinds of Hadoop features)
- For Hadoop 2, there are already some known and unresolved issues with our
shaded jars that we didn’t manage to fix
Users will have to use Flink with Hadoop by relying on vanilla or
vendor-provided Hadoop dependencies.
What do you think?
Best,
Robert

@Konstantin
It is part a) since it is not used by all hadoop users (as they may be
using their existing hadoop infrastructure or one provided by the cloud
service), but I'd say it's mostly for maintenance reasons.
The reality is that we cannot truly maintain flink-shaded-hadoop.
There are too many different versions, with too many features, that are
too old, to make any change with any form of guarantee that things still
work afterwards. This will only get worse when adding another major version.
I'm currently actively avoiding making any changes because I have no way
of properly testing the correctness.
@Ufuk
1)
Initially I thought about keeping flink-shaded-hadoop around, but there
actually isn't really a reason to do so.
Users can build their own version in any case with the existing source
releases.
3)
This is where things get finicky.
At the end of the day the user will have to deal with it; be it by
creating custom Hadoop/Flink distributions, updating to later versions,
raising hell in the Hadoop/Flink JIRAs, ...
We can maybe turn affected components into a plugin.
We should still make sure that Flink works with Hadoop, just not that it
works against all versions in the last 5 years.
As for "expected" conflicts; like, the thing is that who knows how
things look like in 2 years.

Re: [DISCUSS] Adding support for Hadoop 3 and removing flink-shaded-hadoop
Posted by Ufuk Celebi <uc...@apache.org>.
Hey Robert and others,
overall +1 to support Hadoop 3. It would be a great to unblock Flink
support in EMR 6.0 as noted in the linked FLINK ticket.
The arguments raised against flink-shaded-hadoop make sense to me. I have a
few general questions still:
1) Will the flink-shaded-hadoop module (in apache/flink-shaded) be fully
dropped after this change? Or do you plan to keep it (allowing users to
build their own shaded Hadoop if needed)?
2) I find Stephan's ideas pretty interesting. Will there be an official
follow-up to investigate those?
3) What will we tell users that run into class loading conflicts after this
change? What are actually the "expected" conflicts we might see?
– Ufuk

Re: [DISCUSS] Adding support for Hadoop 3 and removing flink-shaded-hadoop
Posted by Konstantin Knauf <kn...@apache.org>.
Hi Chesnay, Hi Robert,
I have a bit of a naive question. I assume the reason for introducing
flink-shaded-hadoop were dependency conflicts between Hadoop, Flink and/or
user code. When we drop it now is it because
a) it was not worth it (value provided did not justify maintenance overhead
and issues introduced)
b) we don't think it is a problem anymore
c) prioritizes have shifted and it *now *not worth it anymore
d) something else
Cheers,
Konstantin

Re: [DISCUSS] Adding support for Hadoop 3 and removing flink-shaded-hadoop
Posted by Stephan Ewen <se...@apache.org>.
Indeed, that would be the assumption, that Hadoop does not expose its
transitive libraries on its public API surface.
From vague memory, I think that pretty much true so far. I only remember
Kinesis and Calcite as counter examples, who exposed Guava classes as part
of the public API.
But that is definitely the "weak spot" of this approach. Plus, as with all
custom class loaders, the fact that the Thread Context Class Loader does
not really work well any more.

Re: [DISCUSS] Adding support for Hadoop 3 and removing
flink-shaded-hadoop
Posted by Chesnay Schepler <ch...@apache.org>.
This would only work so long as all Hadoop APIs do not directly expose
any transitive non-hadoop dependency.
Otherwise the user code classloader might search for this transitive
dependency in lib instead of the hadoop classpath (and possibly not find
it).

Re: [DISCUSS] Adding support for Hadoop 3 and removing flink-shaded-hadoop
Posted by Stephan Ewen <se...@apache.org>.
True, connectors built on Hadoop make this a bit more complex. That is also
the reason why Hadoop is on the "parent first" patterns.
Maybe this is a bit of a wild thought, but what would happen if we had a
"first class" notion of a Hadoop Classloader in the system, and the user
code classloader would explicitly fall back to that one whenever a class
whose name starts with "org.apache.hadoop" is not found? We could also
generalize this by associating plugin loaders with class name prefixes.
Then it would try to load from the user code jar, and if the class was not
found, load it from the hadoop classpath.

although, if you can load the HADOOP_CLASSPATH as a plugin, then you can
also load it in the user-code classloader.

Posted by Chesnay Schepler <ch...@apache.org>.
@Stephan I'm not aware of anyone having tried that; possibly since we
have various connectors that require hadoop (hadoop-compat, hive,
orc/parquet/hbase, hadoop inputformats). This would require connectors
to be loaded as plugins (or having access to the plugin classloader) to
be feasible.

Hi all!
+1 for the simplification of dropping hadoop-shaded
Have we ever investigated how much work it would be to load the
HADOOP_CLASSPATH through the plugin loader? Then Hadoop's crazy dependency
footprint would not spoil the main classpath.
- HDFS might be very simple, because file systems are already Plugin aware
- Yarn would need some extra work. In essence, we would need to discover
executors also through plugins
- Kerberos is the other remaining bit. We would need to switch security
modules to ServiceLoaders (which we should do anyways) and also pull them
from plugins.
Best,
Stephan

Re: [DISCUSS] Adding support for Hadoop 3 and removing flink-shaded-hadoop
Posted by Xintong Song <to...@gmail.com>.
+1 for supporting Hadoop 3.
I'm not familiar with the shading efforts, thus no comment on dropping the
flink-shaded-hadoop.
Correct me if I'm wrong. Despite currently the default Hadoop version for
compiling is 2.4.1 in Flink, I think this does not mean Flink should
support only Hadoop 2.4+. So no matter which Hadoop version we use for
compiling by default, we need to use reflection for the Hadoop
features/APIs that are not supported in all versions anyway.
There're already many such reflections in `YarnClusterDescriptor` and
`YarnResourceManager`, and might be more in future. I'm wondering whether
we should have a unified mechanism (an interface / abstract class or so)
that handles all these kind of Hadoop API reflections at one place. Not
necessarily in the scope to this discussion though.
Thank you~

Re: [DISCUSS] Adding support for Hadoop 3 and removing
flink-shaded-hadoop
Posted by Chesnay Schepler <ch...@apache.org>.
1) Likely not, as this again introduces a hard-dependency on
flink-shaded-hadoop.
2) Indeed; this will be something the user/cloud providers have to deal
with now.
3) Yes.
As a small note, we can still keep the hadoop-2 version of flink-shaded
around for existing users.
What I suggested was to just not release hadoop-3 versions.

Re: [DISCUSS] Adding support for Hadoop 3 and removing flink-shaded-hadoop
Posted by Yang Wang <da...@gmail.com>.
Thanks Robert for starting this significant discussion.
Since hadoop3 has been released for long time and many companies have
already
put it in production. No matter you are using flink-shaded-hadoop2 or not,
currently
Flink could already run in yarn3(not sure about HDFS). Since the yarn api
is always
backward compatible. The difference is we could not benefit from the new
features
because we are using hadoop-2.4 as compile dependency. So then we need to
use
reflector for new features(node label, tags, etc.).
All in all, i am in in favour of dropping the flink-shaded-hadoop. Just
have some questions.
1. Do we still support "-include-hadoop" profile? If yes, what we will get
in the lib dir?
2. I am not sure whether dropping the flink-shaded-hadoop will take some
class conflicts
problems. If we use "export HADOOP_CLASSPATH=`hadoop classpath`" for the
hadoop
env setup, then many jars will be appended to the Flink client classpath.
3. The compile hadoop version is still 2.4.1. Right?
Best,
Yang

+1 to getting rid of flink-shaded-hadoop. But we need to document how
people can now get a Flink dist that works with Hadoop. Currently, when
you download the single shaded jar you immediately get support for
submitting to YARN via bin/flink run.

Re: [DISCUSS] Adding support for Hadoop 3 and removing flink-shaded-hadoop
Posted by Till Rohrmann <tr...@apache.org>.
Hi Robert,
I think it would be a helpful simplification of Flink's build setup if we
can get rid of flink-shaded-hadoop. Moreover relying only on the vanilla
Hadoop dependencies for the modules which interact with Hadoop/Yarn sounds
like a good idea to me.
Adding support for Hadoop 3 would also be nice. I'm not sure, though, how
Hadoop's API's have changed between 2 and 3. It might be necessary to
introduce some bridges in order to make it work.
Cheers,
Till
