The advantages and disadvantages of hadoop hdfs replicating storage and erasure coding storage.
Hadoop 3.0.0-alpha1 及以上版本提供了纠删码(Erasure Coding)存储数据的支持,用户可以根据不同的场景和需求选择副本存储或EC存储方案,两种存储方案各有优缺点和适用场景。
1 副本存储
以文件大小:2.5G 写入HDFS为例;
$ ls –ltr
-rw-r--r-- 1 sywu sywu 2.5G Mar 4 14:15 data000
hdfs数据块大小:512M,默认副本数:3;2.5G文件被切分为5个数据块(B1,B2,B3,B4,B5)存储,单节点存储完成,数据块复制到其它节点,最终总的数据块数:15个,总消耗存储空间:7.5G。
1.1 优点
- 副本保证数据可用性;当某个节点数据块丢失或破损,datanode发现后会自动从其它正常的节点中恢复数据块;
- 副本提高了作业运行并行度,作业可以同时在副本节点运行。
1.2 缺点
- 每个副本使用100%的存储开销,副本数越多,存储开销越大;
- 副本同步占用大量的网络和IO资源。
2 纠删码(Erasure Coding)存储
HDFS使用纠删码(Erasure Coding,以下简称EC)解决副本复制和副本存储所带来的空间和资源消耗问题,以EC代替副本,提供和副本存储相同级别的容错能力,并且存储开销不超过单副本存储的50%。
2.1 纠删码(Erasure Coding)组成结构
- EC由***数据(Data)和奇偶校验码(Parity)***两部分组成,数据存储时通过EC算法生成;生成的过程称为编码(encoding),恢复丢失数据块的过程称为解码(decoding)。
- 与HDFS文件基本构成单位:块(Block) 不同,EC的构成单位:块组(Block group)、块(Block)、单元(cell),每个块组存放与其它块组一样数量的数据块和奇偶校验码块;单元(cell)是EC内部最小的存储结构,多个单元组成条(Striping),存储在块(Block)里。
- EC写入方案有:连续布局(Contiguous Layout)和条形布局(Striping Layout)***;连续布局从 Hadoop 3.0.0-alpha1 版本开始提供支持,数据依次写入块中的单元(cell),一个块写满之后再写入下一个块;条形布局写入方案***目前还在开发阶段,按官方介绍,这种方案由若干个相同大小的单元(cell)序列构成条(stripe),数据被依次写入条的各个单元中,当一个条写满之后再写入下一个条,一个条的不同单元位于不同的数据块中。
- 数据和奇偶校验码块数量由EC策略(Erasure coding policies)决定,比如上图的策略:RS-3-2-1024k,表示每个块组由3个数据块和2个校验块构成,每个单元(cell)大小为1024k,最大可丢失块2个,丢失超过2个则无法恢复。
2.2 Erasure Coding算法
目前支持的EC算法有XOR和Reed-Solomon两种;
2.2.1 XOR 算法
exclusive OR,基于异或运算的算法,从任意数量的单元(cell)中生成1个奇偶校验块。如果任何数据块丢失,则通过对其余位和奇偶校验位进行来恢复。
由于只有1个奇偶校验块,因此它只能容忍1个数据块故障,对于像HDFS这样需要处理多个故障的系统来说,不适用。
2.2.2 Reed-Solomon 算法
Reed-Solomon(简称:RS),该算法有两个参数k和m,记为 RS(k,m),RS算法将k个数据单元(cell)与生成器矩阵(Generator Matrix)相乘得到具有k个数据单元和m个奇偶校验码的扩展码字(extended codewords),最多可容忍m个数据块丢失;如果数据块丢失,则只要将 k+m 个单元格中的k个可用,通过将生成器矩阵的逆与扩展码字(extended codewords)相乘来恢复数据块。由于可以容忍多个数据块丢失,更适用于生产环境。
2.3 使用EC RS算法存储数据
Hadoop 3.0.0-alpha1 版本及以上版本默认已经启用EC,首先设置目录策略使用RS算法,以6个data块和3个奇偶校验码构成一个block group;
hdfs ec -setPolicy -path /data/ec -policy RS-6-3-1024k
将2.5G数据写入EC目录下,数据最终存储在一个block group下,共9个数据块,总消耗存储空间:2.5G。
检查状态;

最终3个丢失的数据块被恢复,文件正常读取。
2.4 优点
- 相比副本存储方式大大降低了存储资源和IO资源的使用;
- 通过XOR和RS算法保证数据安全,有效解决允许范围内数据块破碎和丢失导致的异常;
2.5 缺点
- 恢复数据时需要去读其它数据块和奇偶校验码块数据,需要消耗IO和网络资源;
- EC算法编码和解密计算需要消耗CPU资源;
- 存储大数据,并且数据块较集中的节点运行作业负载会较高;
- EC文件不支持hflush, hsync, concat, setReplication, truncate, append 等操作。

2.5G | 6.492 | 9.093 |
5G | 29.778 | 17.245 |
12G | 65.156 | 30.989 |
读文件;
文件大小 | 三副本存储(秒) | EC存储(秒) |
2.5G | 4.915 | 4.755 |
5G | 7.737 | 7.119 |

综合副本存储和EC存储优缺点,EC存储更适合用于存储备份数据和使用频率较少的非热点数据,副本存储更适用于存储需要追加写入和经常分析的热点数据。
