Binance's Small File Doctor Framework Enhances Data Platform Efficiency

Binance Blog published a new article, detailing the introduction of Binance's Small File Doctor framework aimed at optimizing data platform efficiency. The article highlights the challenges posed by small files in large-scale data platforms, which can lead to increased metadata overhead, higher tail latency, and job failures. Small File Doctor is designed to address these issues by transforming small-file cleanup from scattered scripts into a governed system, significantly reducing the number of small files and saving substantial compute and storage costs annually.The core design goal of Small File Doctor is to ensure file optimization can safely run continuously in production, focusing efforts where it measurably improves latency, stability, and cost. Modern platforms rely heavily on data pipelines, which are crucial for various workflows such as monitoring, fraud detection, analytics, and customer support. When these pipelines slow down or fail, it results in delayed dashboards, missed service-level agreements, and degraded user experiences. Small files, which are common in large data warehouses, exacerbate these issues by increasing read amplification and tail latency, ultimately affecting the performance of data systems.Small File Doctor operates by continuously identifying where small files matter, safely rewriting the underlying data into healthier file sizes, and logging every action for impact measurement. The framework aims to improve performance by converging file sizes toward a reasonable target, reduce operational burden by automatically discovering hotspots, and provide governance by recording every rewrite to tie optimization to measurable outcomes like latency, stability, and cost. It prioritizes optimization based on storage metadata and access patterns, focusing on tables and partitions that significantly impact production outcomes.The framework replaces fragile ad hoc scripts with a continuously running workflow that computes directory-level stats, decides whether a merge is worth performing, executes safely, and logs results for measurement and audit. It includes safety rules to prevent wasted work and ensures merges are performed without changing business logic or risking read-write conflicts. Production safeguards are essential, limiting concurrency to avoid overloading clusters and running within defined off-peak windows. Small File Doctor has already optimized numerous tables, significantly reducing small files and eliminating read-stage failures, with estimated annual savings of $90,000 to $100,000.Looking ahead, Binance plans to integrate Small File Doctor more deeply into production pipelines, allowing for real-time performance improvements. This integration would ensure that file health becomes a built-in step of the production process, enhancing efficiency and reliability. At Binance's scale, small files are not just housekeeping but an infrastructure constraint, requiring a systemic solution like Small File Doctor to maintain reliable critical pipelines as the platform continues to grow.
