Frage 1

Frage
Operational Data Store (ODS)
Antworten
  • As an EDW contains large amounts of data, it is of particular interest when designing an architecture for a Big Data platform. It not only serves as a data source but also as the default interface through which various BI and analysis activities are carried out.
  • Although a single EDW can house multiple ODSs, because their primary role is to facilitate near-realtime reporting, their use is optional.
  • On the other hand, Big Data is mostly comprised of unstructured data that has no defined structure. Unless analyzed, the data may not have any value. Big Data analysis requires data to be stored in its raw form without being modeled first. Once collected, the exploratory phase separates signal (valuable data) from noise.
  • EDWs contain high value data that has gone through rigorous validation and quality control checks

Frage 2

Frage 3

Frage
Staging Area
Antworten
  • Although a single EDW can house multiple ODSs, because their primary role is to facilitate near-realtime reporting, their use is optional.
  • It may not be possible to extract data from all systems at the same time because of various technical or business-related issues. Due to this, a storage buffer where data extracted from different systems at varying times with differing frequencies can be stored is required
  • It is generally an insert/read-only database utilizing either shared-nothing MPP architecture or shared-everything architecture. Data is fed from the data warehouse into the analytical database on regular intervals
  • It usually includes an ETL process that ferries data from source systems into a temporary storage area. This process also contains data cleansing, validation and model transformation operations

Frage 4

Frage
Data Warehouse
Antworten
  • generally contains recent data. However, the degree of “data freshness” depends upon the reporting requirements. As a result, the range of data stored may span from hours to months
  • a relational database that acts as the single version of truth for the enterprise by storing standardized data from across the enterprise in a denormalized form that is fit for reporting and data analysis
  • stores data related to various business entities, such as products or customers. Unlike an OLTP system, data is either inserted or retrieved but not updated in a data warehouse
  • the queries are generally more complex, involving multiple tables spanning a longer range of data.

Frage 5

Frage
Data Mart
Antworten
  • Although the historical data can go back up to several years, the freshness of the current data depends on an enterprise’s reporting and analysis requirements

Frage 92

Frage
Purpose of the Lambda Architecture
Antworten
  • This not only helps process voluminous data faster but also helps cater to infrequent or ad-hoc data processing requests that require above-average storage and processing resources
  • Data architectures are becoming difficult to design and maintain due to the ever-increasing volume, velocity and variety of data.
  • Efficient data storage and efficient querying have incompatible requirements that require following different strategies
  • Data is either stored in a disk-based NoSQL or a memory-based storage device, which can be a NoSQL or some other cluster-based storage technology, that enables low latency data access to perform realtime or near-realtime analytics

Frage 93

Frage
Lambda Architecture Characteristics
Antworten
  • Processes raw data by employing both realtime and batch data processing techniques in parallel
  • Maintain data lineage and details about operations performed on the data across multiple processing stages
  • The results generated by realtime processing are based on incremental algorithms that may not be consistent/accurate
  • Batch data processing eliminates the complexity of maintaining data consistency across nodes by storing only immutable data

Frage 95

Frage
Batch Layer
Antworten
  • Processing of raw data
  • Storage of raw data
  • Ad hoc reporting
  • Calculation of views

Frage 96

Frage
Lambda Architecture Batch Layer
Antworten
  • Uses incremental algorithms and processes comparatively smaller amounts of data to provide low latency results
  • Consists of a storage device (distributed file system), batch processing engine and a workflow engine
  • Uses a recomputation algorithm to provide consistent accurate views and further provides fault-tolerance when compared with an incremental algorithm
  • Comprises an enhanced version of the query engine with logic that can automatically and intelligently combine serving and speed views based on the query criteria

Frage 97

Frage
Lambda Architecture Serving Layer
Antworten
  • Although raw data is stored, for achieving consistency, some structure needs to be applied to the data before storage
  • The storage device used in this layer only needs to support batch write (no random write) with random read capabilities
  • As the layer follows the mutable storage model and the processing results are generated more frequently, the storage device that stores the views needs to support random writes with random reads
  • For keeping the complexity to a minimum and providing faster reads, normally a simple key-value NoSQL database is used

Frage 98

Frage
Lambda Architecture Speed Layer
Antworten
  • The use of an append-only and streaming data storage device keeps complexity to a minimum
  • The views created by the batch layer are not amenable to random querying, as these are generally stored in the distributed file system
  • A memory-based storage device for the storage of raw data and a memory or disk-based NoSQL storage device for the storage of views is generally used
  • Event data is captured using the event data transfer engine and is processed in memory via the realtime processing engine to create indexed views that are generally stored inside a NoSQL database

Frage 99

Frage
Lambda Architecture Query Layer
Antworten
  • For easier integration, the speed and serving views should be constructed in a modular manner
  • Merging the results from views residing in the speed and serving layers for successfully executing a query
  • Once the latest batch view is available via the serving layer, the corresponding results in the realtime views can be ignored or flushed
  • Is a high latency layer such that there is a time lag before the latest version of the views, based on fresher data, is available

Frage 100

Frage
Lambda Architecture Layers in Action
Antworten
  • Raw data is fed simultaneously to the batch and speed layers, generally using the same event data transfer engine
  • The batch layer can be further used for deep analytics, as it contains complete datasets
  • The limitations of the SCV principle are also relaxed
  • Although the speed layer is responsible for processing the entire set of fresh data while the corresponding batch view is not ready, it does not process the entire set as a single job because doing so adds to the latency and results in excessive resource usage

Frage 101

Frage
Lambda Architecture Benefits
Antworten
  • Algorithms for the speed layer can be complex or might need some time to understand, as they use incremental or approximation (probability)-based techniques that the batch equivalent may not be using
  • The complexity of the architecture is restricted to the speed layer, as that is where the incremental algorithms and read/write database are used
  • The immutable nature of the batch layer helps re-process data as a result of a data processing logic change that may occur due to new business requirements or a bug fix
  • Realtime data processing capability is required with consistent results

Frage 102

Frage
Lambda Architecture Applicability
Antworten
  • Realtime data processing capability is required with consistent results
  • Fault-tolerance and accuracy need to be added to the existing realtime system
  • Loss of data is not acceptable
  • Polyglot persistence by employing fit-for-purpose storage devices at each layer

Frage 103

Frage
Lambda Architecture Limitations/Challenges
Antworten
  • Configuring the batch layer to process data in small batches reduces load on the speed layer
  • Raw data is fed simultaneously to the batch and speed layers, generally using the same event data transfer engine, and each layer can be implemented via a different set of technologies
  • Complexity is greatly increased, as two separate layers need building and maintaining while ensuring that each provides the same functionality
  • Requires schema adherence in the batch layer, which adds complexity, adds another step before data can actually be persisted and requires prior knowledge about the structure of the incoming data

Frage 104

Frage
Lambda Architecture Recommendations
Antworten
  • Employing the same processing engine for both the speed and batch layer, such as Spark, helps keep system complexity to a minimum
  • The key-value storage model employed in the serving layer may not be sufficient for all types of query requirements
  • The immutable nature of the batch layer helps re-process data as a result of a data processing logic change that may occur due to new business requirements or a bug fix
  • A balance is required based on the processing requirements, as the throughput obtained from employing small batches may be less than from larger batches and will further require frequent updates to the serving layer
