  1. Caching Dynamic Web Content: Designing and Analyzing an Aspect-Oriented SolutionSara Bouchenak – INRIA, France Alan Cox – Rice University, Houston Steven Dropsho – EPFL, Lausanne Sumit Mittal – IBM Research, India Willy Zwaenepoel – EPFL, Lausanne

  2. Cache HTTP request SQL req. SQL res. HTTP response Web tier Business tier Database tier Internet Database server Client Web server Application server Dynamic Web Content • Motivation for Caching • Represents large portion of web requests • Stock quotes, bidding-buying status on auction site, best-sellers on bookstore • Generation places huge burden on application servers

  3. Caching Dynamic Web Content • Dynamic Content Not easy to Cache • Ensure consistency, invalidate cached entries due to updates • Write requests can modify entries used by read requests • Caching logic inserted at different points in the application • Entry and exit of requests, access to underlying database • Correlation between requests and their database accesses • Most solutions rely on “manually” understanding complex application logic

  4. Our Contributions • Design a cache “AutoWebCache” that • Ensures consistency of cached documents • Insertion of caching logic transparent to application • Make use of aspect-oriented programming • Analysis of the cache • Transparency of injecting caching logic • Improvement in response time for test-bed applications

  5. Cache Check Request info Database access Caching Logic Cache inserts, invalidations AutoWebCache HTTP request SQL req. Internet SQL res. Database server HTTP response Client Web server Application server Dynamic Web Caching – Solution Approach • Consistency • Correlation between read and write requests Web Page Cache • Transparency • Capture information flow

  6. Outline • Design of AutoWebCache • Maintaining cache consistency • Determine relationship between reads and updates • Cache Structure • Aspectizing Web Caching • Insertion of caching logic transparently • Evaluation • Analysis of effectiveness, transparency • Conclusion

  7. Maintaining Cache Consistency – Read Requests • Response to read-only requests cached • Read SQL queries recorded with cache entry Index: URI (readHandlerName + readHandlerArgs) Cached web page Associated Read Queries URI1 WebPage1 { Read Query 11, Read Query 12, ….} URI2 WebPage2 { Read Query 21, Read Query 22, ….} … …

  8. No Invalidation WS RS Invalidation WS RS Maintaining Cache Consistency – Write Requests • Result not cached • Write SQL queries recorded • Intersect write SQL queries with read queries of cached pages • Invalidate if non-zero intersection

  9. Remove Invalidating Cache Entries Index: URI (readHandlerName + readHandlerArgs) Cached web page Associated Read Queries URI1 WebPage1 { Read Query 11, Read Query 12, ….} URI2 WebPage2 { Read Query 21, Read Query 22, ….} URI3 WebPage3 { Read Query 31, Read Query 32, ….} URInWrite Query

  10. Query Analysis Engine • Determines intersection between SQL queries • Three levels of granularity for intersection • Column based • Value based • Extra query based • Balance precision with complexity

  11. UPDATE T SET T.c = 7 WHERE T.b = 10 UPDATE T SET T.a = 12 WHERE T.b = 10 Column Based Intersection Invalidate if Column_Read = Column_Updated a b c 5 8 7 1 10 9 SELECT T.a FROM T WHERE T.b = 8 Ok Invalidate

  12. SELECT T.a FROM T WHERE T.b = 8 UPDATE T SET T.a = 7 WHERE T.b = 10 UPDATE T SET T.a = 12 WHERE T.b = 8 Value Based Intersection Invalidate if Rows_Read = Rows_Updated a b c 5 8 7 1 10 9 Invalidate with column-based Ok Invalidate

  13. SELECT T.b FROM T WHERE T.c = 9 Extra Query Based Intersection Generate extra query to find missing values a b c 5 8 7 ?? 1 10 9 Invalidate with value-based SELECT T.a FROM T WHERE T.b = 8 Ok UPDATE T SET T.a = 3 WHERE T.c = 9

  15. Cache Check Request info Database access Caching Logic Cache inserts, invalidations AutoWebCache HTTP request SQL req. Internet SQL res. Database server HTTP response Client Web server Application server Dynamic Web Caching – Solution Approach • Transparency • Capture information flow Web Page Cache

  16. Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) • Modularize cross-cutting concerns - Aspects • Logging, billing, exception handling • Works on three principles • Capture the execution points of interest – Pointcuts (1) • Method calls, exception points, read/write accesses • Determine what to do at these pointcuts – Advice (2) • Encode cross-cutting logic (before/ after/ around) • Bind Pointcuts and Advice together – Weaving (3) • AspectJ compiler for Java

  17. Original web application Caching library Weaving Rules Aspect Weaving (Aspect J) Cache-enabled web application version Insertion of Caching Logic

  18. Cache check Capturing request entry Capturing request exit String cachedDoc = Cache.get (uri, inputInfo); if (cachedDoc != null) return cachedDoc; // Cache hit Capturing SQL queries Collecting dependency info Capture main Collect SQL query info Cache insert Cache.add(webDoc, uri, inputInfo, dependencyInfo); // Cache miss Aspectizing Read Requests Original code of a read-only request handler // Execute SQL queries … SQL query 1 SQL query 2 … // Generate a web document webDoc = … // Return the web document …

  19. Capturing SQL queries Collecting invalidation info Collect SQL query info Capture main Capturing request exit Cache invalidation // Cache consistency Cache.remove(invalidationInfo); Aspectizing Write Requests Original code of a write request handler // Execute SQL queries … SQL query 1 SQL query 2 … … // Return

  20. Capturing Servlet’s main Method // Pointcut for Servlets’ main methodpointcut servletMainMethodExecution(...)  : execution( void HttpServlet+.doGet( HttpServletRequest, HttpServletResponse)) ||execution( void HttpServlet+.doPost( HttpServletRequest, HttpServletResponse)); • Pointcut captures entry and exit points of web request handlers • Cache Checks and Inserts for Read Requests • Invalidations for Update Requests

  21. Weaving Rules for Cache Checks and Inserts // Advice for read-only requestsaround(...) : servletMainMethodExecution (...) { // Pre-processing: Cache check String cachedDoc; cachedDoc = ... call Cache.get of AutoWebCache if (cachedDoc != null) {... return cachedDoc } // Normal execution of the requestproceed(...); // Post-processing: Cache insert ... call Cache.add of AutoWebCache }

  22. Weaving Rules for Cache Invalidations // Advice for write requestsafter(...) : servletMainMethodExecution (...) { // Cache invalidation ... call Cache.remove of AutoWebCache }

  23. Weaving Rules for Collecting Consistency Information // Pointcut for SQL query callspointcut sqlQueryCall( )  : call(ResultSet PreparedStatement.executeQuery()) || call(int PreparedStatement.executeUpdate()); // Advice for SQL query callsafter( ) : sqlQueryCall ( ) { ... collect consistency info ...} • After each SQL query, note • Query template • Query instance values

  24. Transparency of AutoWebCache • Ability to Capture Information Flow • Entry and exit points of request handlers • e.g. doGet(), doPost() APIs for Java Servlets • Modification to underlying data sets • e.g. JDBC calls for SQL requests • Multiple sources of dynamic behavior • Currently handle dynamic behavior from SQL queries • Need standard interfaces for all sources

  25. Hidden State Problem … Number number = getRandom ( ); Image img = getImage (number); displayImage (img); request execution … • Request does not contain all information for response creation • Occurs when random nos., timers etc. used by application • Subsequent requests result in different responses • Duty of developer to declare such requests non-cacheable

  26. Use of Application Semantics • Aspect-orientedness relies on code syntax • Cannot capture semantic concepts • In TPC-W application • Best Seller requests allows dirty reads for 30 sec • Conforms to specification clauses 3.1.4.1 and 6.3.3.1 • Application semantics can be used to improve performance • Best seller cache entry time-out set for 30 sec

  27. Outline • Design of AutoWebCache • Maintaining cache consistency • Determine relationship between reads and updates • Cache Structure • Aspectizing Web Caching • Insertion of caching logic transparently • Evaluation • Analysis of effectiveness • Conclusion

  28. Evaluation Environment • RUBiS • Auction site based on eBay • Browsing items, bidding, leaving comments etc. • Large number of requests that can be satisfied quickly • TPC-W • Models an on-line bookstore • Listing new products, best-sellers, shopping cart etc. • Small number of requests that are database intensive • Client Emulator • Client browser emulator generates requests • Average think time, session time conform to TPCW v1.8 specification • Cache warmed for 15 min, statistics gathered over 30 min

  44. Key Aspect-Oriented Programming Concepts • “Join points”identify executable points in system • Method calls, read and write accesses, invocations • “Pointcuts” allow capturing of various join points • “Advice” specifies actions to be performed at pointcuts • Before or after the execution of a pointcut • Encode the cross-cutting logic

  45. Conclusion • Dynamic Content Not easy to Cache • Ensure consistency, invalidate cached entries as a result of updates • AutoWebCache – Query Analysis • Caching logic inserted at different points in the application • Entry and exit of requests, access to underlying database • Most solutions rely on understanding complex application logic • AutoWebCache – Transparent insertion of caching logic using AOP • Transparency affected by • Well-defined, standard interfaces for information flow • Presence of hidden states • Use of application semantics

  46. Web Caching versus Query Caching • The two are complimentary • Web caching useful when app server is bottleneck • Documents can be cached nearer to the client, distributed • Can make use of application semantics with web page caching (best seller for TPC-W)
