Ray Data - Scalable ML Data Processing

Distributed data processing library for ML and AI workloads.

When to use Ray Data

Use Ray Data when:

Processing large datasets (>100GB) for ML training
Need distributed data preprocessing across cluster
Building batch inference pipelines
Loading multi-modal data (images, audio, video)
Scaling data processing from laptop to cluster

Key features:

Streaming execution: Process data larger than memory
GPU support: Accelerate transforms with GPUs
Framework integration: PyTorch, TensorFlow, HuggingFace
Multi-modal: Images, Parquet, CSV, JSON, audio, video

Use alternatives instead:

Pandas: Small data (<1GB) on single machine
Dask: Tabular data, SQL-like operations
Spark: Enterprise ETL, SQL queries

Quick start

Installation

pip install -U 'ray[data]'

Load and transform data

import ray

# Read Parquet files
ds = ray.data.read_parquet("s3://bucket/data/*.parquet")

# Transform data (lazy execution)
ds = ds.map_batches(lambda batch: {"processed": batch["text"].str.lower()})

# Consume data
for batch in ds.iter_batches(batch_size=100):
    print(batch)

Integration with Ray Train

import ray
from ray.train import ScalingConfig
from ray.train.torch import TorchTrainer

# Create dataset
train_ds = ray.data.read_parquet("s3://bucket/train/*.parquet")

def train_func(config):
    # Access dataset in training
    train_ds = ray.train.get_dataset_shard("train")

    for epoch in range(10):
        for batch in train_ds.iter_batches(batch_size=32):
            # Train on batch
            pass

# Train with Ray
trainer = TorchTrainer(
    train_func,
    datasets={"train": train_ds},
    scaling_config=ScalingConfig(num_workers=4, use_gpu=True)
)
trainer.fit()

Reading data

From cloud storage

import ray

# Parquet (recommended for ML)
ds = ray.data.read_parquet("s3://bucket/data/*.parquet")

# CSV
ds = ray.data.read_csv("s3://bucket/data/*.csv")

# JSON
ds = ray.data.read_json("gs://bucket/data/*.json")

# Images
ds = ray.data.read_images("s3://bucket/images/")

From Python objects

# From list
ds = ray.data.from_items([{"id": i, "value": i * 2} for i in range(1000)])

# From range
ds = ray.data.range(1000000)  # Synthetic data

# From pandas
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame({"col1": [1, 2, 3], "col2": [4, 5, 6]})
ds = ray.data.from_pandas(df)

Transformations

Map batches (vectorized)

# Batch transformation (fast)
def process_batch(batch):
    batch["doubled"] = batch["value"] * 2
    return batch

ds = ds.map_batches(process_batch, batch_size=1000)

Row transformations

# Row-by-row (slower)
def process_row(row):
    row["squared"] = row["value"] ** 2
    return row

ds = ds.map(process_row)

Filter

# Filter rows
ds = ds.filter(lambda row: row["value"] > 100)

Group by and aggregate

# Group by column
ds = ds.groupby("category").count()

# Custom aggregation
ds = ds.groupby("category").map_groups(lambda group: {"sum": group["value"].sum()})

GPU-accelerated transforms

# Use GPU for preprocessing
def preprocess_images_gpu(batch):
    import torch
    images = torch.tensor(batch["image"]).cuda()
    # GPU preprocessing
    processed = images * 255
    return {"processed": processed.cpu().numpy()}

ds = ds.map_batches(
    preprocess_images_gpu,
    batch_size=64,
    num_gpus=1  # Request GPU
)

Writing data

# Write to Parquet
ds.write_parquet("s3://bucket/output/")

# Write to CSV
ds.write_csv("output/")

# Write to JSON
ds.write_json("output/")

Performance optimization

Repartition

# Control parallelism
ds = ds.repartition(100)  # 100 blocks for 100-core cluster

Batch size tuning

# Larger batches = faster vectorized ops
ds.map_batches(process_fn, batch_size=10000)  # vs batch_size=100

Streaming execution

# Process data larger than memory
ds = ray.data.read_parquet("s3://huge-dataset/")
for batch in ds.iter_batches(batch_size=1000):
    process(batch)  # Streamed, not loaded to memory

Common patterns

Batch inference

import ray

# Load model
def load_model():
    # Load once per worker
    return MyModel()

# Inference function
class BatchInference:
    def __init__(self):
        self.model = load_model()

    def __call__(self, batch):
        predictions = self.model(batch["input"])
        return {"prediction": predictions}

# Run distributed inference
ds = ray.data.read_parquet("s3://data/")
predictions = ds.map_batches(BatchInference, batch_size=32, num_gpus=1)
predictions.write_parquet("s3://output/")

Data preprocessing pipeline

# Multi-step pipeline
ds = (
    ray.data.read_parquet("s3://raw/")
    .map_batches(clean_data)
    .map_batches(tokenize)
    .map_batches(augment)
    .write_parquet("s3://processed/")
)

Integration with ML frameworks

PyTorch

# Convert to PyTorch
torch_ds = ds.to_torch(label_column="label", batch_size=32)

for batch in torch_ds:
    # batch is dict with tensors
    inputs, labels = batch["features"], batch["label"]

TensorFlow

# Convert to TensorFlow
tf_ds = ds.to_tf(feature_columns=["image"], label_column="label", batch_size=32)

for features, labels in tf_ds:
    # Train model
    pass
