What is Enceladus?

Enceladus is a Dynamic Conformance Engine which allows data from different formats to be standardized to parquet and conformed to group-accepted common reference (e.g. data for country designation which are DE in one source system and Deutschland in another, can be conformed to Germany).

The project consists of four main components:

REST API

The REST API exposes the Enceladus endpoints for creating, reading, updating and deleting the models, as well as other functionalities. The main models used are:

  • Runs: Although not able to be defined by users, Runs provide important overview of Standardization & Conformance jobs that have been carried out.
  • Schemas: Specifies the schema towards which the dataset will be standardized
  • Datasets: Specifies where the dataset will be read from on HDFS (RAW), the conformance rules that will be applied to it, and where it will land on HDFS once it is conformed (PUBLISH)
  • Mapping Tables: Specifies where tables with master reference data can be found (parquet on HDFS), which are used when applying Mapping conformance rules (e.g. the dataset uses Germany, which maps to the master reference DE in the mapping table)
  • Dataset Property Definitions: Datasets may be accompanied by properties, but these are not free-form - they are bound by system-wide property definitions.

The REST API exposes a Swagger Documentation UI which documents HTTP exposed endpoints. It can be found at REST_API_HOST/swagger-ui.html
In order to switch between latest and all (latest + legacy) endpoints, use the UI definition selector (right up corner in Swagger).

Menas

This is the user-facing web client, used to specify the standardization schema, and define the steps required to conform a dataset.
The Menas web client calls and is based on the REST API to get the needed entities.

Standardization

This is a Spark job which reads an input dataset in any of the supported formats and produces a parquet dataset with the Menas-specified schema as output.

Conformance

This is a Spark job which applies the Menas-specified conformance rules to the standardized dataset.

Standardization and Conformance

This is a Spark job which executes both Standardization and Conformance together in the same job

How to build

Build requirements:

  • Maven 3.5.4+
  • Java 8

Each module provides configuration file templates with reasonable default values. Make a copy of the *.properties.template and *.conf.template files in each module's src/resources directory removing the .template extension. Ensure the properties there fit your environment.

Build commands:

  • Without tests: mvn clean package -Dskip.unit.tests
  • With unit tests: mvn clean package
  • With integration tests: mvn clean package -Pintegration

Test coverage:

  • Test coverage: mvn clean verify -Pcode-coverage

The coverage reports are written in each module's target directory.

How to run

REST API requirements:

Deploying REST API

Simply copy the rest-api.war file produced when building the project into Tomcat's webapps directory. Another possible method is building the Docker image based on the existing Dockerfile and deploying it as a container.

Deploying Menas

There are several ways of deploying Menas:

  • Tomcat deployment: copy the menas.war file produced when building the project into Tomcat's webapps directory. The "apiUrl" value in package.json should be set either before building or after building the artifact and modifying it in place
  • Docker deployment: build the Docker image based on the existing Dockerfile and deploy it as a container. The API_URL environment variable should be provided when running the container
  • CDN deployment: copy the built contents in the dist directory into your preferred CDN server. The "apiUrl" value in package.json in the dist directory should be set

Speed up initial loading time of REST API

  • Enable the HTTP compression
  • Configure spring.resources.cache.cachecontrol.max-age in application.properties of REST API for caching of static resources

Standardization and Conformance requirements:

username=user
password=changeme
  • REST API Keytab File in your home directory or on HDFS
    • Use with kerberos authentication, see link for details on creating keytab files
  • Directory structure for the RAW dataset should follow the convention of <path_to_dataset_in_menas>/<year>/<month>/<day>/v<dataset_version>. This date is specified with the --report-date option when running the Standardization and Conformance jobs.
  • _INFO file must be present along with the RAW data on HDFS as per the above directory structure. This is a file tracking control measures via Atum, an example can be found here.

Helper scripts for running Standardization, Conformance or both together

The Scripts in scripts folder can be used to simplify command lines for running Standardization and Conformance jobs.

Steps to configure the scripts are as follows (Linux):

  • Copy all the scripts in scripts/bash directory to a location in your environment.
  • Copy enceladus_env.template.sh to enceladus_env.sh.
  • Change enceladus_env.sh according to your environment settings.
  • Use run_standardization.sh and run_conformance.sh scripts instead of directly invoking spark-submit to run your jobs.

Similar scripts exist for Windows in directory scripts/cmd.

The syntax for running Standardization and Conformance is similar to running them using spark-submit. The only difference is that you don't have to provide environment-specific settings. Several resource options, like driver memory and driver cores also have default values and can be omitted. The number of executors is still a mandatory parameter.

The basic command to run Standardization becomes:

<path to scripts>/run_standardization.sh \
--num-executors <num> \
--deploy-mode <client/cluster> \
--rest-api-auth-keytab <path_to_keytab_file> \
--dataset-name <dataset_name> \
--dataset-version <dataset_version> \
--report-date <date> \
--report-version <data_run_version> \
--raw-format <data_format> \
--row-tag <tag>

The basic command to run Conformance becomes:

<path to scripts>/run_conformance.sh \
--num-executors <num> \
--deploy-mode <client/cluster> \
--rest-api-auth-keytab <path_to_keytab_file> \
--dataset-name <dataset_name> \
--dataset-version <dataset_version> \
--report-date <date> \
--report-version <data_run_version>

The basic command to run Standardization and Conformance combined becomes:

<path to scripts>/run_standardization_conformance.sh \
--num-executors <num> \
--deploy-mode <client/cluster> \
--rest-api-auth-keytab <path_to_keytab_file> \
--dataset-name <dataset_name> \
--dataset-version <dataset_version> \
--report-date <date> \
--report-version <data_run_version> \
--raw-format <data_format> \
--row-tag <tag>

Similarly for Windows:

<path to scripts>/run_standardization.cmd ^
--num-executors <num> ^
--deploy-mode <client/cluster> ^
--rest-api-auth-keytab <path_to_keytab_file> ^
--dataset-name <dataset_name> ^
--dataset-version <dataset_version> ^
--report-date <date> ^
--report-version <data_run_version> ^
--raw-format <data_format> ^
--row-tag <tag>
