Friesian Serving Recommendation Framework

Architecture of the serving pipelines

The diagram below demonstrates the components of the friesian serving system, which typically consists of three stages:

Offline: Preprocess the data to get user/item DNN features and user/item Embedding features. Then use the embedding features and embedding model to get embedding vectors.
Nearline: Retrieve user/item profiles and keep them in the Key-Value store. Retrieve item embedding vectors and build the faiss index. Make updates to the profiles from time to time.
Online: Trigger the recommendation process whenever a user comes. Recall service generate candidates from millions of items based on embeddings and the deep learning model ranks the candidates for the final recommendation results.

Services and APIs

The friesian serving system consists of 4 types of services:

Ranking Service: performs model inference and returns the results.
- rpc doPredict(Content) returns (Prediction) {}
  - Input: The encodeStr is a Base64 string encoded from a bigdl Activity serialized byte array.
```
message Content {
    string encodedStr = 1;
}
```
  - Output: The predictStr is a Base64 string encoded from a bigdl Activity (the inference result) serialized byte array.
```
message Prediction {
    string predictStr = 1;
}
```
Feature Service: searches user embeddings, user features or item features in Redis, and returns the features.
- rpc getUserFeatures(IDs) returns (Features) {} and rpc getItemFeatures(IDs) returns (Features) {}
  - Input: The user/item id list for searching.
```
message IDs {
    repeated int32 ID = 1;
}
```
  - Output: colNames is a string list of the column names. b64Feature is a list of Base64 string, each string is encoded from java serialized array of objects. ID is a list of ids corresponding b64Feature.
```
message Features {
    repeated string colNames = 1;
    repeated string b64Feature = 2;
    repeated int32 ID = 3;
}
```
Recall Service: searches item candidates in the built faiss index and returns candidates id list.
- rpc searchCandidates(Query) returns (Candidates) {}
  - Input: userID is the id of the user to search similar item candidates. k is the number of candidates.
```
message Query {
    int32 userID = 1;
    int32 k = 2;
}
```
  - Output: candidate is the list of ids of item candidates.
```
message Candidates {
    repeated int32 candidate = 1;
}
```
Recommender Service: gets candidates from the recall service, calls the feature service to get the user and item candidate's features, then sorts the inference results from ranking service and returns the top recommendNum items.
- rpc getRecommendIDs(RecommendRequest) returns (RecommendIDProbs) {}
  - Input: ID is a list of user ids to recommend. recommendNum is the number of items to recommend. candidateNum is the number of generated candidates to inference in ranking service.
```
message RecommendRequest {
    int32 recommendNum = 1;
    int32 candidateNum = 2;
    repeated int32 ID = 3;
}
```
  - Output: IDProbList is a list of results corresponding to user ID in input. Each IDProbs consists of ID and prob, ID is the list of item ids, and prob is the corresponding probability.
```
message RecommendIDProbs {
    repeated IDProbs IDProbList = 1;
}
message IDProbs {
    repeated int32 ID = 1;
    repeated float prob = 2;
}
```

ps aux|grep friesian

You will see 5 processes start with 'java'

Run client to test

java -Dspark.master=local[*] -cp bigdl-friesian-serving-spark_2.4.6-0.14.0-SNAPSHOT.jar com.intel.analytics.bigdl.friesian.serving.recommender.RecommenderMultiThreadClient -target localhost:8980 -dataDir wnd_user.parquet -k 50 -clientNum 4 -testNum 2

Close services

ps aux|grep friesian (find the service pid)
kill xxx (pid of the service which should be closed)

Schema of the parquet files

The schema of the user and item embedding files

The embedding parquet files should contain at least 2 columns, id column and prediction column. The id column should be IntegerType and the column name should be specified in the config files. The prediction column should be DenseVector type, and you can transfer your existing embedding vectors using pyspark:

from pyspark.sql import SparkSession
from pyspark.sql.functions import udf, col
from pyspark.ml.linalg import VectorUDT, DenseVector

spark = SparkSession.builder \
        .master("local[*]") \
        .config("spark.driver.memory", "2g") \
        .getOrCreate()

df = spark.read.parquet("data_path")

def trans_densevector(data):
   return DenseVector(data)

vector_udf = udf(lambda x: trans_densevector(x), VectorUDT())
# suppose the embedding column (ArrayType(FloatType,true)) is the existing user/item embedding.
df = df.withColumn("prediction", vector_udf(col("embedding")))
df.write.parquet("output_file_path", mode="overwrite")

The schema of the recommendation model feature files

The feature parquet files should contain at least 2 columns, the id column and other feature columns. The feature columns can be int, float, double, long and array of int, float, double and long. Here is an example of the WideAndDeep model feature.

+-------------+--------+--------+----------+--------------------------------+---------------------------------+------------+-----------+---------+----------------------+-----------------------------+
|present_media|language|tweet_id|tweet_type|engaged_with_user_follower_count|engaged_with_user_following_count|len_hashtags|len_domains|len_links|present_media_language|engaged_with_user_is_verified|
+-------------+--------+--------+----------+--------------------------------+---------------------------------+------------+-----------+---------+----------------------+-----------------------------+

+-------------+--------+--------+----------+--------------------------------+---------------------------------+------------+-----------+---------+----------------------+-----------------------------+

The data schema in Redis

The user features, item features and user embedding vectors are saved in Redis. The data saved in Redis is a key-value set.

Key in Redis

The key in Redis consists of 3 parts: key prefix, data type, and data id.

Key prefix is redisKeyPrefix specified in the feature service config file.
Data type is one of user or item.
Data id is the value of userIDColumn or itemIDColumn. Here is an example of key: 2tower_user:29

Value in Redis

A row in the input parquet file will be converted to java array of object, then serialized into byte array, and encoded into Base64 string.

Data schema entry

Every key prefix and data type combination has its data schema entry to save the corresponding column names. The key of the schema entry is keyPrefix + dataType, such as 2tower_user. The value of the schema entry is a string of column names separated by ,, such as enaging_user_follower_count,enaging_user_following_count,enaging_user_is_verified.

Config for different service

You can pass some important information to services using -c config.yaml

java -Dspark.master=local[*] -Dspark.driver.maxResultSize=2G -cp bigdl-friesian-serving-spark_2.4.6-0.14.0-SNAPSHOT.jar com.intel.analytics.bigdl.friesian.serving.recall.RecallServer -c config_recall.yaml

                </executions>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
    </build>

Then you can generate the gRPC files with

mvn clean install

Call recommend service function using blocking stub

You can check the Recommend service client example on Github

import com.intel.analytics.bigdl.friesian.serving.grpc.generated.recommender.RecommenderGrpc;
import com.intel.analytics.bigdl.friesian.serving.grpc.generated.recommender.RecommenderProto.*;

public class RecommendClient {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Create a channel
        ManagedChannel channel = ManagedChannelBuilder.forTarget(targetURL).usePlaintext().build();
        // Init a recommend service blocking stub
        RecommenderGrpc.RecommenderBlockingStub blockingStub = RecommenderGrpc.newBlockingStub(channel);
        // Construct a request
        int[] userIds = new int[]{1};
        int candidateNum = 50;
        int recommendNum = 10;
        RecommendRequest.Builder request = RecommendRequest.newBuilder();
        for (int id : userIds) {
            request.addID(id);
        }
        request.setCandidateNum(candidateNum);
        request.setRecommendNum(recommendNum);
        RecommendIDProbs recommendIDProbs = null;
        try {
            recommendIDProbs = blockingStub.getRecommendIDs(request.build());
            logger.info(recommendIDProbs.getIDProbListList());
        } catch (StatusRuntimeException e) {
            logger.warn("RPC failed: " + e.getStatus().toString());
        }
    }
}

Run Python Client

Install the python packages listed below (you may encounter pyspark error if you have python>=3.8 installed, try to downgrade to python<=3.7 and try again).

pip install jupyter notebook==6.1.4 grpcio grpcio-tools pandas fastparquet pyarrow

After you activate your server successfully, you can

Generate proto python files

Generate the files with

python -m grpc_tools.protoc -I../../protos --python_out=<path_to_output_folder> --grpc_python_out=<path_to_output_folder> <path_to_friesian>/src/main/proto/*.proto

Call recommend service function using blocking stub

You can check the Recommend service client example on Github

# create a channel
channel = grpc.insecure_channel('localhost:8980')
# create a recommend service stub
stub = recommender_pb2_grpc.RecommenderStub(channel)
request = recommender_pb2.RecommendRequest(recommendNum=10, candidateNum=50, ID=[36407])
results = stub.getRecommendIDs(request)
print(results.IDProbList)

Scale-out for Big Data

Redis Cluster

For large data set, Redis standalone has no enough memory to store whole data set, data sharding and Redis cluster are supported to handle it. You only need to set up a Redis Cluster to get it work.

First, start N Redis instance on N machines.

redis-server --cluster-enabled yes --cluster-config-file nodes-0.conf --cluster-node-timeout 50000 --appendonly no --save "" --logfile 0.log --daemonize yes --protected-mode no --port 6379

on each machine, choose a different port and start another M instances(M>=1), as the slave nodes of above N instances.

Then, call initialization command on one machine, if you choose M=1 above, use --cluster-replicas 1

redis-cli --cluster create 172.168.3.115:6379 172.168.3.115:6380 172.168.3.116:6379 172.168.3.116:6380 172.168.3.117:6379 172.168.3.117:6380 --cluster-replicas 1

and the Redis cluster would be ready.

Scale Service with Envoy

Each of the services could be scaled out. It is recommended to use the same resource, e.g. single machine with same CPU and memory, to test which service is bottleneck. From empirical observations, vector search and inference usually be.

How to run envoy:

download and deploy envoy(below use docker as example):

download: docker pull envoyproxy/envoy-dev:21df5e8676a0f705709f0b3ed90fc2dbbd63cfc5

run command: docker run --rm -it -p 9082:9082 -p 9090:9090 envoyproxy/envoy-dev:79ade4aebd02cf15bd934d6d58e90aa03ef6909e --config-yaml "$(cat path/to/service-specific-envoy.yaml)" --parent-shutdown-time-s 1000000
validate: run netstat -tnlp to see if the envoy process is listening to the corresponding port in the envoy config file.
For details on envoy and sample procedure, read envoy.
