@GraphDevroom
Real Graphs are dynamic
Graphs created by events happening in real-time
• liking a post
• buying a book
• listening to a song
• rating a movie
• packet switching in computer networks
• bitcoin transactions
Each event adds an edge to the graph
2

@GraphDevroom
In a batch world
We create and analyze a snapshot of the real graph
• all events / interactions / relationships that
happened between t0 and tn
• the Facebook social network on January 30 2016
• user web logs gathered between March 1st 12:00 and 16:00
• retweets and replies for 24h after the announcement of the
death of David Bowie

@GraphDevroom
In a streaming world
• We receive and consume the events as they are
happening, in real-time
• We analyze the evolving graph and receive results
continuously

@GraphDevroom
Sounds expensive?
Challenges
• maintain the graph structure
• how to apply state updates efﬁciently?
• update the result
• re-run the analysis for each event?
• design an incremental algorithm?
• run separate instances on multiple snapshots?
• compute only on most recent events

• Direct access to the

• Suitable for engineers
• Abstract Data Type

• Suitable data analysts
and engineers
similar to: PCollection, DStream

@GraphDevroom
Nature of a DataStream Job
23
• Tasks are long running in
a pipelined execution.
• State is kept within tasks.
• Transformations are
applied per-record or per-
window.

Creation Transformations
DataStream<String> myStream =
-for supported data sources:
env.addSource(new FlinkKafkaConsumer<String>(…));
env.addSource(new RMQSource<String>(…));
env.addSource(new TwitterSource(propsFile));
env.socketTextStream(…);
-for testing:
env.fromCollection(…);
env.fromElements(…);
-for adding any custom source:
env.addSource(MyCustomSource(…));

myStream.setParallelism(3)
myStream.broadcast();

partitioning
partition stream and operator state by key
myStream.map(…);
myStream.flatMap(…);
myStream.filter(…);
myStream.union(myOtherStream);
-for aggregations on partitioned-by-key streams:
myKeyStream.reduce(…);
myKeyStream.fold(…);
myKeyStream.sum(…);

env.setParallelism(2); //default parallelism
DataStream<Tuple2<String, Integer>> counts = env
.socketTextStream("localhost", 9999)
.flatMap(new Splitter()) //transformation

Working with Windows
26
Why windows?
We are often interested in fresh data!
Highlight: Flink can form and trigger windows consistently
under different notions of time and deal with late events!

@GraphDevroom
Single-Pass Graph Streaming
with Windows
• Each event represents an edge addition
• Each edge is processed once and thrown away,
i.e. the graph structure is not explicitly maintained
• The state maintained corresponds to a graph
summary, a continuously improving property, an
aggregation
• Recent events can be grouped in a graph window
and processed independently
28

@GraphDevroom
What’s the beneﬁt?
• Get results faster
• No need to wait for the job to ﬁnish
• Sometimes, early approximations are better than late exact
answers
• Get results continuously
• Process unbounded number of events
• Use less memory
• single-pass algorithms don’t store the graph structure
• run computations on a graph summary
29

@GraphDevroom
What can you do in this model?
• transformations, e.g. mapping, ﬁltering vertex /
edge values, reverse edge direction
• continuous aggregations, e.g. degree distribution

Batch Connected Components
• State: the graph and a component ID per vertex
(initially equal to vertex ID)
• Iterative Computation: For each vertex:
• choose the min of neighbors’ component IDs and own
component ID as new ID
• if component ID changed since last iteration, notify neighbors

Streaming Connected Components
• State: a disjoint set data structure for the
components
• Computation: For each edge
• if seen for the 1st time, create a component with ID the min of
the vertex IDs
• if in different components, merge them and update the
component ID to the min of the component IDs
• if only one of the endpoints belongs to a component, add the
other one to the same component

Streaming Bipartite Detection
Similar to connected components, but
• each vertex is also assigned a sign, (+) or (-)
• edge endpoints must have different signs
• when merging components, if ﬂipping all signs doesn’t work =>
the graph is not bipartite

Introducing Gelly-Stream
75
• Gelly-Stream enriches the DataStream API with two new additional ADTs:
• GraphStream:
• A representation of a data stream of edges.
• Edges can have state (e.g. weights).
• Supports property streams, transformations and aggregations.
• GraphWindow:
• A “time-slice” of a graph stream.
• It enables neighborhood aggregations (and iterations in the future)

• Many graph analysis problems can be covered in single-pass
• Processing dynamic graphs requires an incremental graph
