3. Dask’s Features Overview
4. General purpose Python library for parallelism Scales existing libraries, like Numpy, Pandas, and Scikit-Learn Flexible enough to build complex and custom systems Accessible for beginners, secure and trusted for institutions
5. PyData Community adoption “Once Dask was working properly with NumPy, it became clear that there was huge demand for a lightweight parallelism solution for Pandas DataFrames and machine learning tools, such as Scikit-Learn. Dask then evolved quickly to support these other projects where appropriate.” Matthew Rocklin Dask Creator Source https://coiled.io/blog/history-dask/ Image from Jake VanderPlas’ keynote, PyCon 2017
6. Deferring Python execution import dask @dask.delayed def inc(x): return x + 1 @dask.delayed def double(x): return x * 2 @dask.delayed def add(x, y): return x + y data = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] output = [] for x in data: a = inc(x) b = double(x) c = add(a, b) output.append(c) total = dask.delayed(sum)(output) Dask allows users to construct custom graphs with the delayed and futures APIs.
7. Distributed Task Graphs Constructing tasks in a DAG allows tasks to executed by a selection of schedulers. The distributed scheduler allows a DAG to be shared by many workers running over many machines to spread out work.
8. Out-of-core computation Dask’s data structures are chunked or partitioned allowing them to be swapped in and out of memory. Operations run on chunks independently and only communicate intermediate results when necessary
9. Dask’s distributed scheduler “For the first year of Dask’s life it was focused on single-machine parallelism. But inevitably, Dask was used on problems that didn’t fit on a single machine. This led us to develop a distributed-memory scheduler for Dask that supported the same API as the existing single-machine scheduler. For Dask users this was like magic. Suddenly their existing workloads on 50GB datasets could run comfortably on 5TB (and then 50TB a bit later).” Matthew Rocklin Dask Creator Source https://coiled.io/blog/history-dask/
10. Scheduler Dashboard # Connect a Dask client >>> from dask.distributed import Client >>> client = Client(cluster) # Do come computation >>> import dask.array as da >>> arr = da.random.random((10_000, 1_000, 1_000), chunks=(1000, 1000, 100)) >>> result = arr.mean().compute()
11. Dashboard Dask’s dashboard gives you key insights into how your cluster is performing. You can view it in a browser or directly within Jupyter Lab to see how your graphs are executing. You can also use the built in profiler to understand where the slow parts of your code are.
12. Elastic scaling Dask’s adaptive scaling allows a Dask scheduler to request additional workers via whatever resource manager you are using (Kubernetes, Cloud, etc). This allows computations to burst out onto more machines and complete the overall graph in less time. This is particularly effective when you have multiple people running interactive and embarrassingly parallel workloads on shared resources.
13. Dask accelerates the existing Python ecosystem Built alongside with the current community import numpy as np x = np.ones((1000, 1000)) x + x.T - x.mean(axis=0 import pandas as pd df = pd.read_csv(“file.csv”) df.groupby(“x”).y.mean() from scikit_learn.linear_model \ import LogisticRegression lr = LogisticRegression() lr.fit(data, labels) Numpy Pandas Scikit-Learn

18. Deploying Dask A brief history and some context
19. 19 19 19 Creating a Cluster manually
20. 20 LocalCluster • Convenience class to create subprocesses • Inspects local system and creates workers to maximise hardware use • Has helper methods for managing the cluster
21. 21 dask-jobqueue • Convenience class to create HPC Dask Clusters • Intended to be used from the head node of an HPC • Scheduler runs in subprocess on the head node • Workers are submitted as HPC jobs to the queue • Assumes network connectivity between all nodes and head node
22. 22 dask-kubernetes (classic) • Convenience class to create Kubernetes Dask Clusters • Intended to be used from within the Kubernetes cluster • Scheduler runs as subprocess in user Pod • Workers are created as Pods (via service account auth) • Assumes network connectivity between all Pod IPs
23. 23 23 23 Helm Chart • Chart deploys a Dask Cluster and a Jupyter service • Scheduler, Workers and Jupyter are all Deployments • Jupyter is preconfigured to connect to the Dask cluster • Dask worker Deployment presents a scaling challenge due to semi-stateful nature of Dask Workers
24. 24 24 24 dask-gateway • Dask cluster provisioning service • Has multiple backends including HPC, Kubernetes and Hadoop • All Dask traffic is proxied via a single ingress • Users are abstracted away front he underlying platform
25. Dask Operator Kubernetes Native
26. 26 26 26 Built with kopf Dask is a Python community so it made sense to build the controller in Python too. We also evaluated the Operator Framework for Golang but using it would hugely reduce the number of active Dask maintainers who could contribute.
27. 27 # cluster.yaml apiVersion: kubernetes.dask.org/v1 kind: DaskCluster metadata: name: simple-cluster spec: worker: replicas: 3 spec: containers: - name: worker image: "ghcr.io/dask/dask:latest" imagePullPolicy: "IfNotPresent" args: - dask-worker - --name - $(DASK_WORKER_NAME) scheduler: spec: containers: - name: scheduler image: "ghcr.io/dask/dask:latest" imagePullPolicy: "IfNotPresent" args: - dask-scheduler ports: - name: tcp-comm containerPort: 8786 protocol: TCP - name: http-dashboard containerPort: 8787 protocol: TCP readinessProbe: httpGet: port: http-dashboard path: /health initialDelaySeconds: 5 … The Dask Operator has four custom resource types that you can create via kubectl. • DaskCluster to create whole clusters. • DaskWorkerGroup to create additional groups of workers with various configurations (high memory, GPUs, etc). • DaskJob to run end-to-end tasks like a Kubernetes Job but with an adjacent DaskCluster. • DaskAutoscaler behaves like an HPA but interacts with the Dask scheduler to make scaling decisions Create Dask Clusters with kubectl
28. 28 DaskJob • Inspired by Kubeflow PyTorchJob, et al • DaskJob contains a Pod spec to run the workload and a nested DaskCluster resource • Workload Pod is pre configured to connect to the DaskCluster • Users can submit a batch job with attached autoscaling Dask Cluster via kubectl
29. Create Dask Clusters with Python # Install dask-kubernetes $ pip install dask-kubernetes # Launch a cluster >>> from dask_kubernetes.operator \ import KubeCluster >>> cluster = KubeCluster(name="demo") # List the DaskCluster custom resource that was created for us under the hood $ kubectl get daskclusters NAME AGE demo 6m3s
