Machine Learning Part 5

In this blog, we will describe another example that utilize KMeans & Spark to determine locations.

Before that, we would suggest you to got to previous blogs -

In this blog, we will analyze and try to make predictions on Fire detection GIS Data- https://fsapps.nwcg.gov/gisdata.php

  1. We will have historical data of Wild fires.
  2. And, we will try to analyze. That is eventually helpful to reduce response time in case of fire, reduce cost, reduce damages due to fire, etc.
Fire can grow exponentially based on various factors like - Wild life, Wind Velocity, terrain surface, etc. Incident tackle time is limited by various factors one of which is moving firefighting equipment. If we are plan in advance where to place equipment's such that it is close to a fire prone area. It is possible to reduce response time.

So, we can analyze the historical data and try to group them in a cluster, which has a centroid. This centroid can be helpful to determine location to make water tanks, keep fire equipment's, etc. As, this location will be close to the locations where fire has affected in past. 

K-Means is a clustering algorithm that fits suitable in this scenario and we will try to use the same.

Mostly, what we have seen a simplistic singular pipeline. But, we can have a pipeline implemented as per Rendezvous Architecture, where-in, multiple models can be applied to an request, and a user defined logic can be applied to return the best fit results to requester.  For example, We might want to locate a correct GPS address for some grocery store, or in case of Fire: we may require to alert a Fire site which can reach the location quickly, rather than the location which is close to Fire. So, an incoming request may be required to optimize with different models for different objectives. Like - Speed vs Accuracy.

We will discuss more about Rendezvous Architecture in future blogs.

This example is pretty much same as what we have seen in previous blog. But, Refer - @ https://github.com/dinesh028/SparkDS/tree/master/src/indore/dinesh/sachdev/forestfire/

Python [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: Missing Authority Key Identifier

  Error requests.exceptions.SSLError: HTTPSConnectionPool  Max retries exceeded with url:  (Caused by SSLError(SSLCertVerificationError(1, '[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: Missing Authority Key Identifier (_ssl.c:1028)'))). Analysis & Solution Recently, we updated from Python 3.11 to 3.13, which resulted in error above. We did verify AKI = SKI in chain of certificates. Also, imported chain of certificates into certifi. Nothing worked for us. Seemingly, it is a bug with Python 3.13. So, we downgraded to Python 3.12 and it started working. Other problems and solution -  '[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: self-signed certificate in certificate chain (_ssl.c:1006)'))) solution  pip install pip-system-certs [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: certificate has expired  (_ssl.c:1006) solution  1# openssl s_client -showcerts -connect  signin.aws.amazon.com:443  </dev/...

Spring MongoDB Rest API not returning response in 90 seconds which is leading to client timeout

  We have Spring Boot  Rest API deployed in Kubernetes cluster which integrates with MongoDB to fetch the data.  MongoDB is fed with data by a real time Spark & NiFi job.  Our clients complained that for a request what they send they don't have response within 90 seconds. Consider it like an OMS ( Order ManagEment System).  On further analysis, we found that Spark & NiFi processing is happenning within 10 seconds after consuming response data from Kafka. Thus, initally out thought was that it due to delay from upstream to produce data in to Kafka.  Thankfully, our data had create / request  timestamp, and when response was received, and when response was inserted into MongoDB. Subtracting response insert time from request time seemed to be well within 90 seconds. But, still client did timeout on not seeing a response within 90 seconds. This led to confusion on our side.  But, then we realized it was due to Read Preference . We updated this...

MongoDB Regex Query taking more time in Production but same query perform well in UAT

   We came across a situation where-in, MongoDB Query was taking more time in Production like 10 seconds and 4.2 seconds but same query performed well in UAT taking under 400 ms. The very first thought that was evident to us that it is because of amount of data which differed in UAT and Production. Then we ran following to see the execution plan -   db.collection.aggregate(<queries>).explain() This gave us Winning and Rejected Plans. Under which, we analyzed that although it was using 'IXSCAN.' But, it was incorrect index- as we had one compound index built on time field and other fields, and there was other index just on time field for TTL purposes. Winning plan picked TTL index rather than compound index. Thus, we dropped TTL index and built TTL index on a different time field.  That got our query performance time from 10 seconds to 726 ms. Also, for other query the performance came down from 8 seconds to 4.3 seconds. Then, we ran following -  ...

Spark MongoDB Connector Not leading to correct count or data while reading

  We are using Scala 2.11 , Spark 2.4 and Spark MongoDB Connector 2.4.4 Use Case 1 - We wanted to read a Shareded Mongo Collection and copy its data to another Mongo Collection. We noticed that after Spark Job successful completion. Output MongoDB did not had many records. Use Case 2 -  We read a MongoDB collection and doing count on dataframe lead to different count on each execution. Analysis,  We realized that MongoDB Spark Connector is missing data on bulk read as a dataframe. We tried various partitioner, listed on page -  https://www.mongodb.com/docs/spark-connector/v2.4/configuration/  But, none of them worked for us. Finally, we tried  MongoShardedPartitioner  this lead to constant count on each execution. But, it was greater than the actual count of records on the collection. This seems to be limitation with MongoDB Spark Connector. But,  MongoShardedPartitioner  seemed closest possible solution to this kind of situation. But, it per...
