I had written a SQL query which is has a subquery in it. It is a correct mySQL query but it does not get implemented on Pyspark
from pyspark import SparkContext, SparkConf
from pyspark.sql import SparkSession
from pyspark.sql import HiveContext
from pyspark.sql.types import *
from pyspark.sql.window import Window
from pyspark.sql.functions import *
sc = spark.sparkContext
sqlcontext = HiveContext(sc)
select location, postal, max(spend), max(revenue)
from (select a.*,
(select sum(r.revenue)
from revenue r
where r.user = a.user and
r.dte >= a.dt - interval 10 minute and
r.dte <= a.dte + interval 10 minute
) as revenue
from auction a
where a.event in ('Mid', 'End', 'Show') and
a.cat_id in (3) and
a.cat = 'B'
) a
group by location, postal;
The error eveytime I am getting is
AnalysisException: u"Correlated column is not allowed in a non-equality predicate:\nAggregate [sum(cast(revenue#17 as double)) AS sum(CAST(revenue AS DOUBLE))#498]\n+- Filter (((user#2 = outer(user#85)) && (dt#0 >= cast(cast(outer(dt#67) - interval 10 minutes as timestamp) as string))) && ((dt#0 <= cast(cast(outer(dt#67) + interval 10 minutes as timestamp) as string))
Any insights on this will be helpful.
Correlated subquery using sql syntax in PySpark is not an option, so in this case I ran the queries seperately with some twigs in sql query and left joined it using df.join to get the desired output through PySpark, this is how this issue was resolved
The code below ran perfectly well on the standalone version of PySpark 2.4 on Mac OS (Python 3.7) when the size of the input data (around 6 GB) was small. However, when I ran the code on HDInsight cluster (HDI 4.0, i.e. Python 3.5, PySpark 2.4, 4 worker nodes and each has 64 cores and 432 GB of RAM, 2 header nodes and each has 4 cores and 28 GB of RAM, 2nd generation of data lake) with larger input data (169 GB), the last step, which is, writing data to the data lake, took forever (I killed it after 24 hours of execution) to complete. Given the fact that HDInsight is not popular in the cloud computing community, I could only reference posts that complained about the low speed when writing dataframe to S3. Some suggested to repartition the dataset, which I did, but it did not help.

I first thought this was caused by the file format parquet. However, when I tried csv, I met with the same problem. I tried result.count() to see how many rows the table result has. It took forever to get the row number, just like writing the data to the data lake.
There was a suggestion to use broadcast hash join instead of the default sort-merge join if a large dataset is joined with a small dataset. I thought it was worth trying because the smaller samples in the pilot study told me the row number of frequency is roughly 0.09% of that of lift (See the query below if you have difficulty tracking frequency and lift).
SELECT lift.antecedent, freq AS frequency, lift
FROM lift
INNER JOIN frequency
ON lift.antecedent = frequency.antecedent

The code ran perfectly well with the same sample data on my Mac OS and as expected took less time (34 seconds vs. 26 seconds). Then I decided to run the code to HDInsight with full datasets. In the last step, which is writing data to the data lake, the task failed and I was told Job cancelled because SparkContext was shut down. I am rather new to big data and have no idea with this means. Posts on the internet said there could be many reasons behind it. Whatever the method I should use, how to optimize my code so I can get the desired output in the data lake within bearable amount of time?
I would try several things, ordered by the amount of energy they require:
Check if the ADL storage is in the same region as your HDInsight cluster.
Add calls for df = df.cache() after heavy calculations, or even write and then read the dataframes into and from a cache storage in between these calculations.
Replace your UDFs with "native" Spark code, since UDFs are one of the performance bad practices of Spark.
I have figured it out after five days' struggle. Here are the approaches that I took to optimize the code. The time of code execution dropped from more than 24 hours to around 10 minutes. Code optimization is really really important.
As David Taub below pointed out, use df.cache() after heavy computation or before feeding the data to the model. I used df.cache().count() since calling .cache() on its own is lazily evaluated but the following .count() forces an evaluation of the entire dataset.
Use flashtext instead of regular expression to extract keywords. This greatly improves code performance.
Be careful with joins / merge. It might get extremely slow due to data skewness. Always think about ways to avoid unnecessary joins.
Set minSupport for FPGrowth. This significantly reduces the time when calling model.freqItemsets.
I have a code similar to this:
from pyspark.sql.functions import udf
from pyspark.sql.types import BooleanType
def regex_filter(x):
regexs = ['.*123.*']
if x and x.strip():
for r in regexs:
if re.match(r, x, re.IGNORECASE):
return True
return False
filter_udf = udf(regex_filter, BooleanType())
df_filtered = df.filter(filter_udf(df.fieldXX))
I want to use "regexs" var to verify if any digit "123" is in "fieldXX"
i don't know what i did wrong!
Could anyone help me with this?
Regexp is incorrect.
I think it should be something like:
regexs = '.*[123].*'
You can use SQL function to attain this
df.createOrReplaceTempView("df_temp")
df_1 = spark.sql("select *, case when col1 like '%123%' then 'TRUE' else 'FALSE' end col2 from df_temp")
Disadvantage in using UDF is you cannot save the data frame back or do any manipulations in that data frame further.
I am aware of how to implement a simple CASE-WHEN-THEN clause in SPARK SQL using Scala. I am using Version 1.6.2. But, I need to specify AND condition on multiple columns inside the CASE-WHEN clause. How to achieve this in SPARK using Scala ?
Thanks in advance for your time and help!
Here's the SQL query that I have:
select sd.standardizationId,
case when sd.numberOfShares = 0 and
isnull(sd.derivatives,0) = 0 and
sd.holdingTypeId not in (3,10)
then
8
else
holdingTypeId
end
as holdingTypeId
from sd;
First read table as dataframe
val table = sqlContext.table("sd")
Then select with expression. There align syntaxt according to your database.
val result = table.selectExpr("standardizationId","case when numberOfShares = 0 and isnull(derivatives,0) = 0 and holdingTypeId not in (3,10) then 8 else holdingTypeId end as holdingTypeId")
And show result
result.show
An alternative option, if it's wanted to avoid using the full string expression, is the following:
import org.apache.spark.sql.Column
import org.apache.spark.sql.functions._
val sd = sqlContext.table("sd")
val conditionedColumn: Column = when(
(sd("numberOfShares") === 0) and
(coalesce(sd("derivatives"), lit(0)) === 0) and
(!sd("holdingTypeId").isin(Seq(3,10): _*)), 8
).otherwise(sd("holdingTypeId")).as("holdingTypeId")
val result = sd.select(sd("standardizationId"), conditionedColumn)
I'm not sure why this is happening. In PySpark, I read in two dataframes and print out their column names and they are as expected, but then when do a SQL join I get an error that cannot resolve column name given the inputs. I have simplified the merge just to get it to work, but I will need to add in more join conditions which is why I'm using SQL (will be adding in: "and b.mnvr_bgn < a.idx_trip_id and b.mnvr_end > a.idx_trip_data"). It appears that the column 'device_id' is being renamed to '_col7' in the df mnvr_temp_idx_prev_temp
mnvr_temp_idx_prev = mnvr_3.select('device_id', 'mnvr_bgn', 'mnvr_end')
print mnvr_temp_idx_prev.columns
['device_id', 'mnvr_bgn', 'mnvr_end']
raw_data_filtered = raw_data.select('device_id', 'trip_id', 'idx').groupby('device_id', 'trip_id').agg(F.max('idx').alias('idx_trip_end'))
print raw_data_filtered.columns
['device_id', 'trip_id', 'idx_trip_end']
raw_data_filtered.registerTempTable('raw_data_filtered_temp')
mnvr_temp_idx_prev.registerTempTable('mnvr_temp_idx_prev_temp')
test = sqlContext.sql('SELECT a.device_id, a.idx_trip_end, b.mnvr_bgn, b.mnvr_end \
FROM raw_data_filtered_temp as a \
INNER JOIN mnvr_temp_idx_prev_temp as b \
ON a.device_id = b.device_id')
Traceback (most recent call last): AnalysisException: u"cannot resolve 'b.device_id' given input columns: [_col7, trip_id, device_id, mnvr_end, mnvr_bgn, idx_trip_end]; line 1 pos 237"
Any help is appreciated!
I would recommend renaming the name of the field 'device_id' in at least one of the data frame. I modified your query just a bit and tested it(in scala). Below query works
test = sqlContext.sql("select * FROM raw_data_filtered_temp a INNER JOIN mnvr_temp_idx_prev_temp b ON a.device_id = b.device_id")
[device_id: string, mnvr_bgn: string, mnvr_end: string, device_id: string, trip_id: string, idx_trip_end: string]
Now if you are doing a 'select * ' in above statement, it will work. But if you try to select 'device_id', you will get an error "Reference 'device_id' is ambiguous" . As you can see in the above 'test' data frame definition, it has two fields with the same name(device_id). So to avoid this, I recommend changing field name in one of the dataframes.
mnvr_temp_idx_prev = mnvr_3.select('device_id', 'mnvr_bgn', 'mnvr_end')
.withColumnRenamned("device_id","device")
raw_data_filtered = raw_data.select('device_id', 'trip_id', 'idx').groupby('device_id', 'trip_id').agg(F.max('idx').alias('idx_trip_end'))
Now use dataframes or sqlContext
//using dataframes with multiple conditions
val test = mnvr_temp_idx_prev.join(raw_data_filtered,$"device" === $"device_id"
&& $"mnvr_bgn" < $"idx_trip_id","inner")
//in SQL Context
test = sqlContext.sql("select * FROM raw_data_filtered_temp a INNER JOIN mnvr_temp_idx_prev_temp b ON a.device_id = b.device and a. idx_trip_id < b.mnvr_bgn")
Above queries will work for your problem. And if your data set is too large, I would recommend to not use '>' or '<' operators in Join condition as it causes cross join which is a costly operation if data set is large. Instead use them in WHERE condition.
