Azure Synapse Spark client library for Java - version 1.0.0-beta.5

  • Artigo

Azure Synapse is a limitless analytics service that brings together enterprise data warehousing and Big Data analytics. It gives you the freedom to query data on your terms, using either serverless on-demand or provisioned resources—at scale. Azure Synapse brings these two worlds together with a unified experience to ingest, prepare, manage, and serve data for immediate BI and machine learning needs.

The Azure Synapse Analytics Spark client library enables programmatically managing Spark jobs.

Getting started

Adding the package to your project

Maven dependency for the Azure Synapse Spark client library. Add it to your project's POM file.

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.azure</groupId>
    <artifactId>azure-analytics-synapse-spark</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.0-beta.4</version>
</dependency>

Prerequisites

  • Java Development Kit (JDK) with version 8 or above
  • Azure subscription.
  • An existing Azure Synapse workspace. If you need to create an Azure Synapse workspace, you can use the Azure Portal or Azure CLI. 
    az synapse workspace create \
    --name <your-workspace-name> \
    --resource-group <your-resource-group-name> \
    --storage-account <your-storage-account-name> \
    --file-system <your-storage-file-system-name> \
    --sql-admin-login-user <your-sql-admin-user-name> \
    --sql-admin-login-password <your-sql-admin-user-password> \
    --location <your-workspace-location>

Authenticate the client

In order to interact with the Azure Synapse service, you'll need to create an instance of the SparkClient class. You would need a workspace endpoint and client secret credentials (client id, client secret, tenant id) to instantiate a client object using the default DefaultAzureCredential examples shown in this document.

The DefaultAzureCredential way of authentication by providing client secret credentials is being used in this getting started section but you can find more ways to authenticate with azure-identity.

Create/Get credentials

To create/get client secret credentials you can use the Azure Portal, Azure CLI or Azure Cloud Shell

Here is an Azure Cloud Shell snippet below to

  • Create a service principal and configure its access to Azure resources:

    az ad sp create-for-rbac -n <your-application-name> --skip-assignment

    Output:

    {
    "appId": "generated-app-ID",
    "displayName": "dummy-app-name",
    "name": "http://dummy-app-name",
    "password": "random-password",
    "tenant": "tenant-ID"
}

Create Spark client

Once you've populated the AZURE_CLIENT_ID, AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET, and AZURE_TENANT_ID environment variables and replaced your-workspace-endpoint with the URI returned above, you can create Spark clients. For example, the following code creates SparkBatchClient:

import com.azure.identity.DefaultAzureCredentialBuilder;
import com.azure.analytics.synapse.spark.SparkBatchClient;
import com.azure.analytics.synapse.spark.SparkClientBuilder;

SparkBatchClient batchClient = new SparkClientBuilder()
    .endpoint("https://{YOUR_WORKSPACE_NAME}.dev.azuresynapse.net")
    .sparkPoolName("{SPARK_POOL_NAME}")
    .credential(new DefaultAzureCredentialBuilder().build())
    .buildSparkBatchClient();

NOTE: For using an asynchronous client use SparkBatchAsyncClient instead of SparkBatchClient and call buildSparkBatchAsyncClient()

Key concepts

Spark batch Client

The Spark batch client performs the interactions with the Azure Synapse service for getting, setting, updating, deleting, and listing Spark batch jobs. Asynchronous (SparkBatchAsyncClient) and synchronous (SparkBatchClient) clients exist in the SDK allowing for the selection of a client based on an application's use case.

Examples

The Azure.Analytics.Synapse.Spark package supports synchronous and asynchronous APIs. The following section covers some of the most common Azure Synapse Analytics Spark job related tasks:

Sync API

The following sections provide several code snippets covering some of the most common Azure Synapse Spark service tasks, including:

Spark batch job examples

Create a Spark batch job

createSparkBatchJob creates a Spark batch job.

SparkBatchJobOptions options = new SparkBatchJobOptions()
    .setName(name)
    .setFile(file)
    .setClassName("WordCount")
    .setArguments(Arrays.asList(
        String.format("abfss://%s@%s.dfs.core.windows.net/samples/java/wordcount/shakespeare.txt", fileSystem, storageAccount),
        String.format("abfss://%s@%s.dfs.core.windows.net/samples/java/wordcount/result/", fileSystem, storageAccount)
    ))
    .setDriverMemory("28g")
    .setDriverCores(4)
    .setExecutorMemory("28g")
    .setExecutorCores(4)
    .setExecutorCount(2);

SparkBatchJob jobCreated = batchClient.createSparkBatchJob(options);

List Spark batch jobs

getSparkBatchJobs enumerates the Spark batch jobs in the Synapse workspace.

SparkBatchJobCollection jobs = batchClient.getSparkBatchJobs();
for (SparkBatchJob job : jobs.getSessions()) {
    System.out.println(job.getName());
}

Cancel a Spark batch job

cancelSparkBatchJob cancels a Spark batch job by the given job ID.

batchClient.cancelSparkBatchJob(jobId);

Async API

The following sections provide several code snippets covering some of the most common asynchronous Azure Synapse Spark service tasks, including:

Note : You should add System.in.read() or Thread.sleep() after the function calls in the main class/thread to allow async functions/operations to execute and finish before the main application/thread exits.

Create a Spark job asynchronously

createSparkBatchJob creates a Spark batch job.

String storageAccount = "<storage-account>";
String fileSystem = "<file-system>";
String name = "<job-name>";
String file = String.format("abfss://%s@%s.dfs.core.windows.net/samples/java/wordcount/wordcount.jar", fileSystem, storageAccount);
SparkBatchJobOptions options = new SparkBatchJobOptions()
    .setName(name)
    .setFile(file)
    .setClassName("WordCount")
    .setArguments(Arrays.asList(
        String.format("abfss://%s@%s.dfs.core.windows.net/samples/java/wordcount/shakespeare.txt", fileSystem, storageAccount),
        String.format("abfss://%s@%s.dfs.core.windows.net/samples/java/wordcount/result/", fileSystem, storageAccount)
    ))
    .setDriverMemory("28g")
    .setDriverCores(4)
    .setExecutorMemory("28g")
    .setExecutorCores(4)
    .setExecutorCount(2);

batchClient.createSparkBatchJob(options).subscribe(job -> System.out.printf("Job ID: %f\n", job.getId()));

List Spark batch jobs asynchronously

getSparkBatchJobs enumerates the Spark batch jobs in the Synapse workspace.

batchClient.getSparkBatchJobs().subscribe(jobs -> {
    for (SparkBatchJob job : jobs.getSessions()) {
        System.out.println(job.getName());
    }
});

Cancel a Spark batch job asynchronously

cancelSparkBatchJob deletes a Spark batch job by the job ID.

batchClient.cancelSparkBatchJob(jobId);

Troubleshooting

Default HTTP client

All client libraries by default use the Netty HTTP client. Adding the above dependency will automatically configure the client library to use the Netty HTTP client. Configuring or changing the HTTP client is detailed in the HTTP clients wiki.

Default SSL library

All client libraries, by default, use the Tomcat-native Boring SSL library to enable native-level performance for SSL operations. The Boring SSL library is an Uber JAR containing native libraries for Linux / macOS / Windows, and provides better performance compared to the default SSL implementation within the JDK. For more information, including how to reduce the dependency size, refer to the performance tuning section of the wiki.

Next steps

Several Synapse Java SDK samples are available to you in the SDK's GitHub repository. These samples provide example code for additional scenarios commonly encountered while working with Azure Synapse Analytics.
