Performance tuning for Web engine


Install Tsung on CentOS

Pre-requisites:
1. Install Erlang:

sudo yum -y update && sudo yum -y upgrade
sudo yum install epel-release

sudo yum -y install erlang perl perl-RRD-Simple.noarch perl-Log-Log4perl-RRDs.noarch gnuplot perl-Template-Toolkit


2. Get Tsung
wget http://tsung.erlang-projects.org/dist/tsung-1.6.0.tar.gz

3. Extract and Install
tar zxvf tsung-1.6.0.tar.gz
cd tsung-1.6.0
./configure && make && sudo make install

Note: Sample XML configurations are located in /usr/share/doc/tsung/examples/http_simple.xml

Setup up Cluster Testing with Tsung

1. Add cluster nodes info in each node's "/etc/hosts"
sudo vi /etc/hosts
# cluster nodes
192.168.10.10       n1
192.168.10.11       n2
192.168.10.12       n3
192.168.10.13       n4

2. Setup ~/.ssh/config file
vi ~/.ssh/config
Host n1
  Hostname n1
  User tsung
  Port 722
  IdentityFile /home/tsung/.ssh/my_key_rsa7
Host n2
  Hostname n2
  User tsung
  Port 722
  IdentityFile /home/tsung/.ssh/my_key_rsa7
.....

Test and Visualize Results
1. Start tsung on master server
tsung -f /home/tsung/test/selected_scenario.xml start

2. Plot graphs with Perl script
/usr/lib/tsung/bin/tsung_stats.pl --stats /home/tsung/.tsung/log/$tsung_path/tsung.log

 Change Kernel params

 vi /etc/sysctl.conf


net.ipv4.tcp_tw_reuse = 1
net.ipv4.tcp_tw_recycle = 1
net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 1024 65000
fs.file-max = 65000

NLP for Uzbek language




























     Natural language processing is an essential tool for text mining in data analysis field. In this post, I want to share my approach in developing stemmer for Uzbek language.       Uzbek language is spoken by 27 million people  around the world and there are a lot of textual materials in internet in uzbek language and it is growing.  As I was doing my weekend project " FlipUz " (which is news aggregator for Uzbek news sites) I stumbled on a problem of automatic tagging news into different categories. As this requires a good NLP library, I was not able to find one for Uzbek language.  That is how I got a motive to develop a stemmer for Uzbek language.        In short,  Stemming  is an algorithm to remove meaningless suffixes at the end, thus showing the core part of the word. For example: rabbits -> rabbit.  As Uzbek language is similar to Turkish, I was curious if there is stemmer for Turkish. And I found this: Turkish St...

Streaming Twitter tweets to HBase with Apache Flume




























             Apache Hbase is a great noSQL database for storing enormous amount of data that can scale in three axis. Apache Hbase was based on Google's BigTable that stores all  web contents in internet. By knowing row key and column id we can retrieve the value at the matter of milliseconds.  HBase runs on top of HDFS and friendly with MapReduce tasks. So it can scale up together with Hadoop.  One thing which seems to be disadvantage is HBase depends on ZooKeeper, while other big table based databases like Cassandra is independent. Nevertheless, I did not face any problem with it.  Apache Hbase is really fast. Currently I am using it for TF-IDF based keyword retrieval, and it can retrieve results from 2 million tweets in few seconds.  Anyways, Let me get back to the topic.   My plan was to stream twitter data directly to Hbase by using Apache Flume. Fortunately, Flume has a Hbase sink plugin that comes by default in lib folder. We can use two kinds o...

Three essential things to do while building Hadoop environment




























 Last year I setup Hadoop environment by using Cloudera manager. (Basically I followed this video tutorial :  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CobVqNMiqww )  I used CDH4(cloudera hadoop)  that included HDFS, MapReduce, Hive, ZooKeeper HBase, Flume and other essential components. It also included YARN (MapReduce 2) but it was not stable so I used MapReduce instead.  I installed CDH4 on 10 centos nodes, and I set the Flume to collect twitter data, and by using "crontab" I scheduled the indexing the twitter data in Hive.  Anyways, I want to share some of my experiences  and challenges that I faced.  First, let me give some problem solutions that everyone must had faced while using Hadoop.   1. vm.swappiness warning on hadoop nodes   It is easy to get rid of this warning by just simply running this shell command on nodes:  >sysctl -w vm.swappiness=0  More details are written on cloudera's site   2. Make sure to synchronize time on all nodes (otherwise it will give error on n...
