State-of-the-art, challenges, and open issues in the integration of Internet of things and cloud computing

Storm has long served as the main platform for real-time analytics at Twitter. However, as the scale of data being processed in real-time at Twitter has increased, along with an increase in the diversity and the number of use cases, many limitations of Storm have become apparent. We need a system that scales better, has better debug-ability, has better performance, and is easier to manage -- all while working in a shared cluster infrastructure. We considered various alternatives to meet these needs, and in the end concluded that we needed to build a new real-time stream data processing system. This paper presents the design and implementation of this new system, called Heron. Heron is now the de facto stream data processing engine inside Twitter, and in this paper we also share our experiences from running Heron in production. In this paper, we also provide empirical evidence demonstrating the efficiency and scalability of Heron.

Twitter Heron: Stream Processing at Scale

This paper introduces a generic and scalable framework for automated anomaly detection on large scale time-series data. Early detection of anomalies plays a key role in maintaining consistency of person's data and protects corporations against malicious attackers. Current state of the art anomaly detection approaches suffer from scalability, use-case restrictions, difficulty of use and a large number of false positives. Our system at Yahoo, EGADS, uses a collection of anomaly detection and forecasting models with an anomaly filtering layer for accurate and scalable anomaly detection on time-series. We compare our approach against other anomaly detection systems on real and synthetic data with varying time-series characteristics. We found that our framework allows for 50-60% improvement in precision and recall for a variety of use-cases. Both the data and the framework are being open-sourced. The open-sourcing of the data, in particular, represents the first of its kind effort to establish the standard benchmark for anomaly detection.

Generic and Scalable Framework for Automated Time-series Anomaly Detection

With an ever-increasing amount of options, the task of selecting machine learning tools for big data can be difficult. The available tools have advantages and drawbacks, and many have overlapping uses. The world’s data is growing rapidly, and traditional tools for machine learning are becoming insufficient as we move towards distributed and real-time processing. This paper is intended to aid the researcher or professional who understands machine learning but is inexperienced with big data. In order to evaluate tools, one should have a thorough understanding of what to look for. To that end, this paper provides a list of criteria for making selections along with an analysis of the advantages and drawbacks of each. We do this by starting from the beginning, and looking at what exactly the term “big data” means. From there, we go on to the Hadoop ecosystem for a look at many of the projects that are part of a typical machine learning architecture and an understanding of how everything might fit together. We discuss the advantages and disadvantages of three different processing paradigms along with a comparison of engines that implement them, including MapReduce, Spark, Flink, Storm, and H2O. We then look at machine learning libraries and frameworks including Mahout, MLlib, SAMOA, and evaluate them based on criteria such as scalability, ease of use, and extensibility. There is no single toolkit that truly embodies a one-size-fits-all solution, so this paper aims to help make decisions smoother by providing as much information as possible and quantifying what the tradeoffs will be. Additionally, throughout this paper, we review recent research in the field using these tools and talk about possible future directions for toolkit-based learning.

Distributed data stream processing and edge computing

This paper describes the use of Storm at Twitter. Storm is a real-time fault-tolerant and distributed stream data processing system. Storm is currently being used to run various critical computations in Twitter at scale, and in real-time. This paper describes the architecture of Storm and its methods for distributed scale-out and fault-tolerance. This paper also describes how queries (aka. topologies) are executed in Storm, and presents some operational stories based on running Storm at Twitter. We also present results from an empirical evaluation demonstrating the resilience of Storm in dealing with machine failures. Storm is under active development at Twitter and we also present some potential directions for future work.
