Improving Resource Utilization and Isolation in Bilibili Big Data Clusters with the Amiya Over‑commit Component

By deploying the self‑developed Amiya over‑commit component together with kernel‑level cgroup memory isolation, explicit task priorities, OOM‑priority killing, and asynchronous reclamation, Bilibili’s big‑data clusters boosted daily resource utilization by about 15 %, eliminated DataNode OOM kills, cut memory‑reclaim latency to zero, and achieved a further 9 % overall efficiency gain.

Evolution and Mechanisms of Linux I/O Schedulers (Kyber, MQ‑Deadline, BFQ)

From legacy spinning-disk optimizations to modern SSD-focused QoS, Linux’s I/O scheduler landscape has evolved through noop, deadline, cfq and now multiqueue designs such as Kyber, MQ-Deadline, and BFQ, each employing distinct latency, deadline, and budget-fairness algorithms, supporting cgroup/ionice priorities, and complemented by numerous experimental out-of-tree implementations.
