Background Intro
Orange Financial
Orange Financial Services Group (Chinese: 甜橙金融), formerly known as Bestpay, is an affiliate company of
China Telecom. It reached 1.13 trillion CNY ($18.37 Billion) transaction volume in 2018, with 500 million registered
users and 41.9 million active users.

Challenges
❏ High concurrency
❏ > 50M transactions, 1 billion events a day (peek: 35K/s)
❏ Low latency demand
❏ response < 200ms
❏ Large number of batch jobs and streaming jobs
“A merchant’s total transaction volume ($) within the past month (30days)
(current transaction included)”
= sum($past_29days) + sum($today_upto_current)

Drawbacks
❏ S/W stacks complexity
❏ Realtime / Offline / Serving stacks
❏ Multiple clusters to maintain (Kafka / Hive / Spark / Flink)
❏ Different skill sets to manipulate (Scala / Java / SQL)
❏ Segmented Logics
❏ Historical/Current
❏ Data redundancy
❏ Multiple duplications to move over
Introduce Apache Pulsar
What is Apache Pulsar?
“Flexible Pub/Sub Messaging
Backed by durable log storage”
Pulsar - A cloud-native architecture
Stateless Serving
Durable Storage
Pulsar - Segment Centric Storage
❏ Topic Partition (Managed Ledger)
❏ The storage layer for a single topic
partition
❏ Segment (Ledger)
❏ Single writer, append-only
❏ Replicated to multiple bookies
Pulsar - Pub/Sub
Pulsar - Topic Partitions
Pulsar - Segments
Pulsar - Stream
Pulsar - Stream as a unified view on data
Pulsar - Two levels of reading API
❏ Pub/Sub (Streaming)
❏ Read data from brokers
❏ Consume / Seek / Receive
❏ Subscription Mode - Failover, Shared, Key_Shared
❏ Reprocessing data by rewinding (seeking) the cursors
❏ Segment (Batch)
❏ Read data from storage (bookkeeper or tiered storage)
❏ Fine-grained Parallelism
❏ Predicate pushdown (publish timestamp)

PoC at Bestpay
❏ Ingest data to Pulsar
❏ Realtime Data
❏ pulsar-io-kafka: connect kafka messages (JSON) to Pulsar
and store them in AVRO format with schema information
❏ Historic Data
❏ pulsar-spark: query the Hive table and insert Hive rows as
Pulsar messages (AVRO) to Pulsar
❏ Data Processing
❏ Spark Structured Streaming: for stream processing
❏ Spark SQL: for batch processing and interactive queries
Benefits
❏ Complexity drop 33% (Number of clusters from 6 down to 4)
❏ Storage saving 8.7% (expect to be 28%)
❏ Time to production boosts 11x (backed with streaming SQL)
❏ Higher stability (expected)
Summary
❏ Apache Pulsar is a cloud-native messaging streaming system
❏ Multi layered architecture
❏ Segment centric storage
❏ Two levels of reading API: Pub/Sub + Segment
❏ Apache Pulsar provides a unified view of data
❏ Pulsar + Spark for a simple unified data processing
