E-MapReduce:End of full support for data development features in Data Platform in the old EMR console

Last Updated:Dec 27, 2023

E-MapReduce (EMR) Data Platform in the old EMR console entered the maintenance state at 21:00 on February 21, 2022 (UTC+8). The data development features in Data Platform are no longer updated. For more information, see End of updates for data development features in EMR Data Platform.

Data Platform in the old EMR console will reach the end of full support at 00:00 on September 30, 2023 (UTC+8). Services, such as answering questions, resolving issues, and handling service level agreement (SLA) guarantee compensation, are no longer provided. From 00:00 on December 30, 2024 (UTC+8), Data Platform in the old EMR console will be discontinued in phases by region. If you still use Data Platform in the old EMR console to develop data, migrate jobs and workflows for data development from Data Platform to EMR Workflow at the earliest opportunity. This topic describes the impacts of the end of full support for Data Platform and describes how to migrate data from Data Platform to EMR Workflow.

Time for end of full support

00:00 on September 30, 2023 (UTC+8)

Impacts

The projects that you created before this point in time are not affected. You can continue to use Data Platform in the old EMR console to run jobs or schedule workflows in the projects. However, services, such as answering questions, resolving issues, and handling SLA guarantee compensation, are no longer provided. If you want to continue running jobs or scheduling workflows in EMR, we recommend that you migrate data from Data Platform to EMR Workflow.

E-MapReduce (EMR) Workflow is a fully managed service that can be used to schedule workflows and tasks. This service is fully compatible with open source Apache DolphinScheduler. EMR Workflow provides easy-to-use scheduling services. You can manage workflows and tasks with ease based on a visualized operation interface and efficiently build data warehouses. This ensures that production tasks can be run stably.

For more information about EMR Workflow, see What is EMR Workflow?

Migration process

You can export workflows and jobs in Data Platform in the old EMR console with ease. Then, you can use the import feature of EMR Workflow to import the workflows and jobs to implement efficient data migration.

Estimated duration

1. Preparations

  1. View the What is EMR Workflow topic to determine whether EMR Workflow can meet your business requirements.

  2. Fill in the registration form for migration of data to EMR Workflow.

  3. Join the Data Platform DingTalk group of Alibaba Cloud EMR. The DingTalk group ID is 34405021286.

  4. Engineers will conduct a survey of your cluster configurations and actual resource usage to determine the feasibility and the schedule of data migration.

2. Migration

  1. Export workflows and jobs in Data Platform in the old EMR console as a JSON file that describes workflows.

  2. Import the JSON file to EMR Workflow.

Note

The export and import operations in the migration phase do not affect the scheduling of jobs in Data Platform in the old EMR console.

3. Check

By default, workflows that are imported to EMR Workflow are in the offline state. You must manually run the workflows one at a time or perform time-based scheduling on the workflows to observe the running results of the workflows.

Note

If you have questions during the running process, you can contact the Alibaba Cloud EMR team. Engineers in the team will locate and analyze issues and provide a solution.
