Install Unravel for GCP BigQuery - VM Authentication method

Unravel can be installed on a GCP instance and configured to monitor jobs, datasets, tables, and data with a service account located outside the Google Cloud environment. This section outlines the steps for installing Unravel for GCP BigQuery using the VM authentication method.

Follow the instructions to install and set up Unravel to receive BigQuery data.

Installing Unravel on the GCP Bigquery VM instance

Do the following to set up Unravel on the GCP VM.

1. Creating and configuring the GCP BigQuery VM instance

From your GCP console, go to the Compute Engine dashboard and click Create Instance.
Select the following options based on Unravel's instance requirements:
- Base OS
- Instance type and size
- Ports
- Networking
  The instance must be HTTPS and publicly accessible.
- Firewall rules or policies

Note
The GCP VM should have all TCP access to the BigQuery cluster (server/parent or worker) nodes. You can grant access by inserting adding firewall rules of the BigQuery server/parent and worker with all TCP, all port ranges.
While creating the GCP VM, add the Firewall properties, Enable the HTTP and HTTPS traffic Go to Network tab, and add Network tags. (This is the firewall rule that is already created.)

Type	Protocol	Port range	Source
All traffic	All	All	For example, 10.10.0.0/16
SSH	TCP	22	0.0.0.0/0 or trusted public IP for SSH access
Custom TCP Rule	TCP	3000
Custom TCP Rule	TCP	4043
TLS	TCP	4443

Type	Protocol	Port range	Source
All traffic	All	All	0.0.0.0/0

Configuring the GCE instance

Disable selinux.
```
sudo setenforce Permissive
```
Edit /etc/selinux/config to ensure the setting persists after reboot and ensure SELINUX=permissive.
```
sudo vi /etc/selinux/config
```

Install libaio.x86_64, lzop.x86_64, and ntp.x86_64.

sudo yum install -y libaio.x86_64
sudo yum install -y lzop.x86_64
sudo yum install -y ntp.x86_64

Start ntpd and check the system time.
```
sudo service ntpd start
sudo ntpq -p
```
Create a new Unravel user named unravel.
```
sudo useradd unravel
```

2. Downloading Unravel

Download Unravel onto the VM instance that you have created.

Important

Before downloading Unravel for your platform, ensure to get the username and password from Unravel Support.

Download the Unravel package (RPM or TAR):

You can refer to Download section for the complete list of Unravel product downloads.

For example:

Tar

curl -v https://preview.unraveldata.com/unravel/RPM/4.x.x/unravel-4.x.x.x-cloud.tar.gz -u username:password

RPM

curl -v https://preview.unraveldata.com/unravel/RPM/4.x.x/unravel-4.x.x.x.rpm -o unravel-4.x.x.x.rpm -u username:password

3. Deploying Unravel

Deploy Unravel on the GCP instance that you have created.

Unravel binaries are available as a tar file or RPM package. You can deploy the Unravel binaries in any directory on the server. However, the user who installs Unravel must have the write permissions to the directory where the Unravel binaries are deployed.

After deploying the Unravel binaries, the directory layout for the Tar and RPM will be unravel/versions/<Directories and files>. The binaries are deployed to <Unravel_installation_directory>, and Unravel will be available in <Unravel_installation_directory/unravel.

The following steps to deploy Unravel from a tar file should be performed by a user who will run Unravel.

Create an Installation directory.
```
mkdir /path/to/installation/directory
```
For example: mkdir /opt/
Extract the Unravel tar file to the installation directory, which you have created in the first step. After you extract the contents of the tar file, the unravel directory is created within the installation directory.
```
tar zxf unravel-<version>tar.gz -C /path/to/installation/directory
```
For example: tar zxf unravel-4.x.x.x.tar.gz -C /opt
The unravel directory will be available within /opt.
Grant ownership of the directory to a user who will run Unravel.
```
chown -R username:groupname /path/to/installation/directory
```
For example: chown -R hadoop:hadoop /opt/unravel/

Important

A root user should perform the following steps to deploy Unravel from an RPM package. After the RPM package is deployed, the remaining installation procedures should be completed by the Unravel user.

Create an installation directory.
```
mkdir /usr/local/unravel
```
Run the following command:
```
rpm -i unravel-<version>.rpm
```
For example: rpm -i unravel-4.x.x.x.rpm
The unravel directory will be available in /usr/local.
If you want to provide a different location, use the --prefix command. For example:
```
mkdir /opt/unravel
rpm -i unravel-4.x.x.x.rpm --prefix /opt
```
The unravel directory will be available in /opt.
Grant ownership of the directory to a user who will run Unravel. This user executes all the processes involved in the Unravel installation.
```
chown -R username:groupname /usr/local/unravel
```
For example: chown -R hadoop:hadoop /usr/local/unravel
Continue with the installation procedures as unravel user.

4. Installing Unravel

You can also manually install Unravel; refer to Run setup

The Interactive Precheck utility is run to validate the required configurations before installing Unravel. When you run the Interactive Precheck utility, various checks are prompted for gathering configuration information. The responses you provide for these checks generate a bootstrap configuration file. This file, which contains the configuration information, is then used to install Unravel.

Do the following to install and configure Unravel with Interactive Precheck.

After you download and deploy the Unravel, run the precheck.sh script from unravel/versions/X.Y.Z/healthcheck/.
For example:
/opt/unravel/versions/X.Y.Z/healthcheck/precheck.sh
Enter the necessary details when you are prompted for the following configuration information:
General
This section covers general information about your Unravel install. You are prompted for the following:
```

5. Enable Transport Layer Security (TLS) for Unravel UI

Refer to Enabling Transport Layer Security (TLS) for Unravel UI.

6. Configure an HTTPS Load Balancer for Unravel Endpoint

Note

The HTTPS load balancer for Unravel endpoint must be configured only when using the Push model.

Unravel LR endpoint should be available over a publically accessible HTTPS endpoint to receive messages from BigQuery PubSub. The Load Balancer is an easier and more secure method to push the log messages between the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and Unravel. Use the following instructions to configure an HTTPS load balancer for Unravel with public endpoint and SSL termination.

You must have the following information handy before you configure the Load Balancer:

Region and Zone where the Unravel VM is running.
Network and Subnet-network where the Unravel VM is running.
A valid SSL certificate in GCP.

Do the following to create a Load Balancer

Create an instance group. Refer to Create a managed instance group for detailed instructions.
- In the New unmanaged instance group page, ensure to keep the following items the same as that of Unravel VM.
  - Location > Region
  - Location > Zone
  - Network and Instances > Network
  - Network and Instances > SubNetwork
- Under Port Mapping, enter the following:
  - Port Name: http4043
  - Port Number: 4043
Set up an HTTPS Load Balancer. Refer to Set up an HTTPS Load Balancer for detailed instructions. Ensure to do the following:
- Under Name, update the name as unravel-loadbalancer.
- In Backends > New Backend > Instance groups, select the Unravel instance group that you had created in Step 1.
- Under Health check, do the following:
  - Select Create a health check, and then add the name as unravel-4043-hc
  - Update the Protocol as HTTP and Port as 4043.
  - Update the Request Path as /lr/status.
- Ensure that Port is set to 443 to allow HTTPS traffic.
After the Load Balancer is created, find the public IP address of the Load Balancer that is mentioned under Frontend section of the Load Balancer. Add the IP address of the Load Balancer to a valid DNS name.

Setting Unravel to receive BigQuery data

Unravel can be set up to automatically create and configure resources in more than 100 projects at a time. You can add projects either with customer-supplied credentials or with Unravel-generated credentials for Unravel monitoring. These can be single projects or multiple projects.

To integrate the BigQuery projects in Unravel, you must create a service account in only the project in which Unravel is hosted. This service account must be attached to the Unravel VM. Custom roles are created for the monitoring and administrator projects with required permissions. IAM binding of the role is done with the principal, which is the service account, in each of the projects.

Unravel ships the following resources, which are required to automatically set up Unravel to receive BigQuery data.

Terraform
This is an open-source software for infrastructure provisioning. The Terraform creates resources on the GCP account and facilitates the smooth integration of Unravel with your cloud platform.
You can choose to either use the Terraform, which is bundled with Unravel installer or edit and use the external Terraform, which is provided separately, independent of the installer.
gcloud CLI
Set of tools to create and manage Google Cloud resources.

BigQuery projects can be set by any one of the following. Ensure to complete the prerequisites before you set up BigQuery projects.

Customer-supplied credentials: For the customer-supplied credentials, the customer must create and provide all the resources. You can either do this manually from the GCP console, or you can use the external Terraform.
Unravel-generated credentials: For projects added with Unravel-generated credentials, all the resources are created and handled by Unravel.

Configuring BigQuery projects with customer-supplied credentials

You can configure the BigQuery projects using one of the following methods:

Manually from the GCP. Refer to Add BigQuery projects manually from the GCP console
Using external Terraform. Refer to Add BigQuery projects using external Terraform. All the steps that you perform manually to configure BigQuery projects from the GCP console are automatically handled by the external Terraform.

Stop Unravel.

<Unravel installation directory>/unravel/manager stop

Configure the BigQuery projects.

You can use one of the following methods to configure the BigQuery projects manually:

A project ID is a unique string used to differentiate your project from all others in Google Cloud. You cannot edit a Project ID after it is generated.

You can either create a project on the GCP account and get the Project ID or get the Project ID of an existing project and keep it handy. The Project ID must be set in Unravel later using the manager utility.

There are three types of project IDs that are required for the integration of BigQuery with Unravel

Unravel project ID: Project ID of the VM where Unravel is installed. Refer to the Project ID mentioned in the diagram.
Monitoring project ID: Project ID of the projects in which jobs (query, load, extract, copy) are executed.
Administrator project ID: Project ID of the projects in which reservation, commitment, slot assignment data is stored.

Create a role for an Unravel project with the required permission for Unravel monitoring. This role is assigned to the Unravel service account that is used to authenticate Unravel applications.

On the GCP Console, go to the Roles page.
Using the drop-down list at the top of the page, select the Unravel project in which you want to create a role.
Click Create Role and enter a Name, Title, and Descriptionfor the role. Preferably keep the role name as unravel for easy identification. The description is optional, which can be maintained as Unravel monitoring.
Select Role launch stage as General Availability.
Caution
The role name cannot be changed after the role is created.

When queries are run, logs are generated in BigQuery. The logs can be pushed to Unravel via Pub/Sub topics. To route logs to Unravel, a Pub/Sub topic must be created.

On the GCP console, go to thePub/Sub topics page.
Note
The logs are pushed to Unravel via Pub/Sub topics.
Click Create topic.
In the Topic ID field, enter an ID for your topic and click Create Topic. Preferably specify unravel-bigquery as the topic ID. The topic is now listed in the list of topics.

If you have chosen the INFORMATION-SCHEMA polling method during installation, then you can skip this step.

Sinks control how Cloud Logging routes log. Using sinks, you can route the logs to supported destinations.

On the GCP console, go to the Logs Router page.
Click Create Sink and provide a name and description for the sink. Preferably name the Sink as unravel-sink.
Under Sink Destination, from the Sink Service dropdown, select the Cloud Pub/Sub topic.
From Select a Cloud Pub/Sub topic, select the Cloud Pub/Sub topic that you had created for Unravel project in Step 5.

Under Choose logs to include in the Sink, add a filter to determine the logs that must be included in the log routing sink. For example

 (resource.type="bigquery_resource" AND ((protoPayload.methodName="jobservice.insert" AND  protoPayload.serviceData.jobInsertResponse.resource.jobName.jobId :*) OR (protoPayload.methodName="jobservice.jobcompleted" AND
  protoPayload.serviceData.jobCompletedEvent.job.jobName.jobId :*))) OR (resource.type="bigquery_dts_config" AND (labels.run_id :* AND resource.labels.config_id :*))

In this example:

bigquery_resource indicates the BigQuery logs.
jobservice.insert indicates the jobs of running type.
jobservice.jobcompleted indicates the jobs of completed type.

Click Create Sink.

Warning

If you have chosen the INFORMATION-SCHEMA polling method during installation, then you can skip this step.

A subscription is created to subscribe to associated topics and set the process to send the logs to unravel. Do the following to create a subscription.

On the GCP console, go to the Pub/Sub topics page.
Select the topic that was created in Step 5.
Scroll down to the Subscriptions tab and click Create Subscription > Create Subscription.
In the Subscription ID text box, provide a name for the subscription. Preferably keep the Subscription ID as unravel-bigquery-sub.
Under the Delivery type, select Push or Pull.
If you have selected Push, then in the Endpoint URL text box, provide the Log Receiver (LR) endpoint URL for PUSH messages. LR server receives the logs from Google Pub/Sub and is the entry point to unravel. The criterion for the LR endpoint URLs is as follows:
- Has to be a POST verb.
- Has to be an HTTPS endpoint. Refer to Enabling Transport Layer Security (TLS) for Unravel UI
- Should serve a valid self-signed certificate.
- The endpoint should be publicly accessible.
You must specify the endpoint URL in the following format:
```
https://<unravel-hostname>:4443/logs/bigquery/<gcp-project-id>/bigquery/bigquery
```
For example:
```
https://playground-bq-4770.unraveldata.com:4443/logs/bigquery/unravelsaas-329506/bigquery/bigquery
```
Provide the expiry time for the subscription.
Under Message ordering, select the Order messages with an ordering key option. This will allow the messages tagged with the same ordering key to be received in the published order.
Note
This option can be selected only once when you are configuring Pub/Sub service for the first time.
Optionally, you can filter the messages via Dead lettering and Retry Policy options.
Click Create.

You must give the IAM access to the service account by adding the principal and by assigning the Unravel role that you have created with the required permissions.

Open the IAM page in the Google Cloud console.
Select a project and click Grant Access.
In the Grant access to <Project> dialog box, in Add principals section, select a principal. The principal is the service account that you have created in the project where Unravel is installed.
In the Assign roles, select the role that you have created with the set of permissions.
Click Save.

With the external Terraform, all the steps that are performed manually to configure BigQuery projects from the GCP console are automatically handled. To use the external Terraform, do the following:

Go to Unravel Cloud Platform Integration scripts in GitHub.

Based on the instructions, clone unravel-terraform-scripts.

git clone https://github.com/unraveldata-org/unravel-terraform-scripts/tree/release/4.8.2.0/bigquery

Go into the bigquery folder and follow the instructions in the README file.

Also, see Disintegrating GCP projects with Unravel.

Add projects.
Add projects
The following types of projects can be added.
Single BigQuery monitoring project (customer-supplied credentials)
Note
In case you have configured the Push method, ensure to configure the target endpoint of the Pub/Sub subscription ID to the Unravel LR HTTPS endpoint.
To add a single BigQuery project for Unravel monitoring, run the following command:
For API Pull/Push method
<Unravel installation directory>/unravel/manager config bigquery add <project-id> <subscription-id>
For INFORMATION-SCHEMA method
<Unravel installation directory>/unravel/manager config bigquery add <project-id>
Note
In case you have used the external Terraform to configure, ensure to add the same subscription ID here that you have provided in the Terraform scripts.
For example:
/opt/unravel/manager config bigquery add my-project subscription-12345
Tip
You can use the same command to add more projects one at a time. If you use the same project ID, the existing project gets updated.
Multiple BigQuery monitoring projects (customer-supplied credentials)
You can configure multiple projects with customer-supplied credentials. To implement this, you must create a text file containing the list of project IDs and provide the path of this file in the following command. Each line in the text file must carry a single Project ID. Along with the project ID, you must also provide the subscription ID and the path to the customer-supplied credentials file. During the configuration, the credentials in the file are copied and encrypted.
Run the following command to add multiple BigQuery projects for Unravel monitoring with customer-supplied credentials.
For API Pull/Push method
<Unravel installation directory>/unravel/manager config bigquery add --batch </path/to/project-id-file> [--subscription-id <sub>]
For INFORMATION-SCHEMA method
<Unravel installation directory>/unravel/manager config bigquery add --batch </path/to/project-id-file> [--subscription-id <sub>]
--subscription-id : This is an optional field when you add projects with Unravel-generated credentials. If you do not provide any value, the default unravel-bigquery-sub is considered.
Note
The --subscription-id is a mandatory field when you add projects with customer-supplied credentials since there is a different subscription ID.
In case you have used the external Terraform to configure, ensure to add the same subscription ID here that you have provided in the Terraform scripts.
In case of INFORMATION-SCHEMA method, you need not add the subscription ID.
</path/to/project-id-file>: The full path to the directory containing the project IDs.
For example, you have the project-id-file with the following project IDs:
first-project second-project
Administrator projects (customer-supplied credentials)
Adminstrator projects store the data of reservation, commitment, and slot assignment. The administrator projects are integrated into Unravel to retrieve reservation data. To integrate the administrator project, you must create a custom role with specific permissions, give the IAM access to the service account, and then assign the custom role to the service account.
Create a custom role and add administrator permissions to this role. Refer to Create a role in the project topic for instructions. Add only the Step 2.4.
Add the administrator project using the following command:
Add administrator project with monitoring. These are admin projects where BigQuery jobs are also run and require monitoring.
Adding single administrator project for monitoring
Unravel installation directory>/unravel/manager config bigquery add <project ID of the administrator project> --is-admin
For example: /unravel/manager config bigquery add bigqadminprj1 --is-admin
Adding multiple administrator projects for monitoring
Refer to Project ID text file.
Unravel installation directory>/unravel/manager config bigquery add --batch </path/to/project-id-file> --is-admin
For example: /unravel/manager config bigquery add --batch /tmp/proj-id.txt --is-admin
Add administrator project without monitoring. These are admin projects that store reservation data and do not run BigQuery jobs. Therefore may not require monitoring.
Adding single administrator project
Unravel installation directory>/unravel/manager config bigquery add <project ID of the administrator project> --is-admin --no-monitoring
For example: /unravel/manager config bigquery add bigqadminprj1 --is-admin --no-monitoring
Adding multiple administrator projects
Refer to Project ID text file.
Unravel installation directory>/unravel/manager config bigquery add --batch </path/to/project-id-file> --is-admin --no-monitoring
For example: /unravel/manager config bigquery add --batch /tmp/proj-id.txt --is-admin --no-monitoring
Note
