Intro Week - 3 - HLD 101
|
||||
------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
What is HLD?
|
||||
------------
|
||||
|
||||
1. used to working with code on a single machine
|
||||
- you give some input, you get some output
|
||||
1. how do you scale to 1000 or million or 100 million users?
|
||||
- what should your architecture be
|
||||
1. This is what HLD is about
|
||||
1. You need to now HLD, LLD to progress in your career

How do you access Google.com?
|
||||
-----------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
1. Most large systems have
|
||||
- business logic at some location
|
||||
- many many clients using that sytem
|
||||
- via some interface
|
||||
- usually a website
|
||||
- so, first layer us client
|
||||
- on mobile / browser / ipad
|
||||
1. something like Google.com
|
||||
1. when you type Google.com, first thing that happens?
|
||||
- DNS Lookup/resolution
|
||||
- Every device on the internet has an IP. Including your system
|
||||
- 0-255 . 0-255 . 0-255 . 0-255
|
||||
- 192.168.0.1
|
||||
- Similarly, Google.com also has an IP.
|
||||
- DNS maps domain names to IPs
|
||||
- server which takes in domain name and gives you back IP
|
||||
- Google DNS
|
||||
1. Browser gets the IP address and tries to connect
|
||||
1. Request goes to Google's servers.
|
||||
1. Some Magic happens and a response is generated
|
||||
1. Response is returned back to you
|
||||

|
||||
1. Now, HLD deals with everything that happens in this Magic box

DELICIO.US
|
||||
----------
|
||||
|
||||
1. 2005/6
|
||||
1. Bookmarking website
|
||||
- chrome wasn't there yet
|
||||
- firefx and IE were all the rage
|
||||
1. If you store bookmarks on one machine
|
||||
- how do you access them on another machine?
|
||||
1. Delicio.us stores all your bookmarks.
|
||||
- if you change machines
|
||||
- just login to delicio.us
|
||||
- all your bookmarks are there
|
||||

Humble Beginings
|
||||
----------------
|
||||
|
||||
1. delicio.us started with a single laptop
|
||||
- 
|
||||
1. Let us walk through how it evolves over time
|
||||
1. Started getting popuar
|
||||
- DB requirement started growing
|
||||
- 40 GB storage wasn't enough
|
||||
- already at 35GB. Filling at 5 GB / month
|
||||
- how do I fix this?
|
||||
1. Buy a better laptop
|
||||
- one with 100GB storage
|
||||
1. This is **Vertical Scaling**
|
||||
- This is how servers would scale in 90's
|
||||
- IBM
|
||||
1. Delicio.us got even more popular
|
||||
- 100 GB will last for only 2 more months
|
||||
- no better laptop in the market
|
||||
- how to fix it now?
|
||||
1. Buy more laptops
|
||||
1. DNS issue
|
||||
- one domain mapped to only 1 IP
|
||||
- usually. Google has multiple IPs
|
||||
- you need to be huge to get multiple IPs
|
||||
1. How to distribute users over different laptops, if I have just 1 ip?
|
||||
1. Load Balancer
|
||||
- because entire website cannot be on one single server. What if I restart?
|
||||
- So, multiple macines, and load balancer distributes the requests
|
||||
- simply forwards requests and gives back results
|
||||
- could be different communication protocol - socket vs http vs protobuf
|
||||
- Google has multiple IPs
|
||||
- 1 LB with **multiple backups**
|
||||
- switching time is seconds to microseconds
|
||||
1. Note that going from just 1 to 2 laptop requires a LB
|
||||
- because the client just has 1 IP and doesn't care what you're doing internally
|
||||
1. Usualy, LB just reroutes and doesn't do any heavy computation
|
||||

|
||||
1. This is called **Horizontal Scaling**.

Load Balancer
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
|
||||
1. 
|
||||
1. How will you design the LB?
|
||||
- Round robin - go one by one to each machine
|
||||
- No need to consistent hashing here
|
||||
1. What is M2 goes down?
|
||||
- or n/w breaks
|
||||
1. Keep an alive mapping
|
||||
- Health Check
|
||||
- Poll/Ping each server. Must respond in 100 ms
|
||||
- Or server sends heartbeat
|
||||
1. What if LB goes down?
|
||||
- Backup servers
|
||||
- Managed via Zookeeper
|
||||
1. Most LBs allow configuring Heartbeat vs Polling, frequency, ...
|
||||
1. What if server is not down, but slow?
|
||||
- need rate management
|
||||
- measure avg response time
|
||||
- assuming requests are similar
|
||||
- do some sort of weighted Round Robin
|
||||
- weights could be preassigned
|
||||
- or based on Avg Response Time
|
||||
- or a hybrid approach
|
||||
- will need to invalidate the Avg Response Time? Sliding window / TTL
|
||||
- because machines can start failing slowly
|
||||
1. Of course, LB has to be non-blocking
|
||||
- so that no request slows down the other requests
|
||||
- most requests are IO bound
|
||||
- servers are also multicore. So you can process multiple CPU bound requests too!
|
||||
1. DDOS attacks are usually handled at the LB stage
|
||||
- rate limiting by ip/userid
|
||||
- whitelisting and blacklisting
|
||||
1. this is stateless LB. Doesn't matter which server the request goes to
|
||||
|
||||
-- --
|
||||
|
||||
Stateful LB
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
|
||||
1. Delicio.us could not store all data on one laptop
|
||||
- had to split
|
||||
1. If U1's data is on L1, U1's request should go to L1 and not other servers
|
||||
1. How to do this?
|
||||
- store {userid -> serverid}
|
||||
- Too big if we've 8B users
|
||||
- 8 bytes + 4 bytes + overhead
|
||||
- 100 bytes * 8B = 800 GB
|
||||
- Can't fit in RAM
|
||||
- userid % N
|
||||
- don't need to store anything in memory
|
||||
- or some hash function
|
||||
1. But what if server goes down? Up?
|
||||
- every userid will be moved
|
||||
- for all userids > N
|
||||
- so, a lot of data transmission
|
||||
|
||||
1. Hash function should be able to handle such things
|
||||
1. Consistent Hashing
|

|

Consistent Hashing
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Step 1
|
||||
------
|
||||
|
||||
- userid space
|
||||
- serverid space
|
||||
- hash space
|
||||
- H(uid or sid) -> $[0, 10^{18}]$
|
||||
- Hash both servers and users
|
||||
- 
|
||||
- User gets assigned to the closest server
|
||||
- Since Hash is almost random, equal probability of user to be assigned to any server
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Step 2
|
||||
------
|
||||
|
||||
- What happens if server dies?
|
||||
- Say s2 dies
|
||||
- 
|
||||
- All users of s2 get assigned to s3
|
||||
- they should've been distributed equally
|
||||
- What if I add server?
|
||||
- add s5
|
||||
- only the load of s4 is reduced. Load at s1, s2, s3 is still the same
|
||||
- 
|
||||
- Why hash and not equidistant? How will you add more servers? you will have to move every server
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Step 3
|
||||
------
|
||||
|
||||
- create more markers for each server
|
||||
- not more copies of server
|
||||
- just markers
|
||||
- helps distribute load more equally
|
||||
- 
|
||||
- basically, use multiple hash functions H1 .. H100
|
||||
- Now, if a server dies
|
||||
- its users will be almost equally distributed amongst the other servers
|
||||
- 
|
||||
- If server added
|
||||
- each server gies up some of its users to new server
|
||||
- 
|
||||

||||

Algorithm
|
||||
---------
|
||||
|
||||
- Store (hash, server) in sorted order
|
||||
- binary search for user's hash

- Application layer
|
||||
- application layer hosts the business logic
|
||||
- authentication
|
||||
- mostly, all machines in the application layer are running identical code
|
||||
- Storage Layer
|
||||
- need to maintain context
|
||||
- stateful

|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
- Load Balancer gets the request
|
||||
- via some protocol - Socket / HTTP
|
||||
- how do you prevent the LB from becoming a single point of failure?
|
||||
- have multiple load balancers?
|
||||
- ip can be located to only one machine, not a bunch of machines
|
||||
- Have the domain map to multiple IPs
|
||||
- browser takes care of making sure that all ips are fetched and we connect to some ip which is up
|
||||
- is needed so that we can
|
||||
- ensure that each machine gets almost equal load
|
||||
- we can add/remove machines when we want
|
||||
- to have a single point of contact for the outside world
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
- Internet vs Intranet
|
||||
|
||||
- Vertical scaling - getting a bigger machine
|
||||
- limited by commercial machines
|
||||
- compression can only go to some extent
|
||||
- registering ips with ICANN is a slow process
|
||||
- Horizontal scaling - get lots of smaller machine
|
||||
- need to be able to load balance and distrubute data
