Hear how DBS Bank is taking a new approach to making data-intensive compute independent of the storage. They will share the challenges as well as the new technology stack that includes technologies like Spark, Alluxio and object stores.
Running Presto with Alluxio on Amazon EMR.
Many organizations are leveraging EMR to run big data analytics on public cloud. However, reading and writing data to S3 directly can result in slow and inconsistent performance. Alluxio is a data orchestration layer for the cloud, and in this use case it caches data for S3, ensuring high and predictable performance as well as reduced network traffic.
In this Office Hour I'll go over:
- How to set up Alluxio with the EMR stack so that Presto jobs can seamlessly read from and write to S3
- Compare the performance between Presto on EMR with Presto and Alluxio on EMR
- Open Session for discussion on any topics such as solving the separation of compute and storage problem, and more
Simplifying Data Access for Cloud Workloads
Alluxio 2.0 is the most ambitious platform upgrade since the inception of Alluxio with greatly expanded capabilities to empower users to run analytics and AI workloads on private, public or hybrid cloud infrastructures leveraging valuable data wherever it might be stored. This preview release, now available for download, includes many advancements that will allow users to push the limits of their data-workloads in the cloud.
In this webinar, we will introduce the key new features and enhancements such as:
- Support for hyper-scale data workloads with tiered metadata storage, distributed cluster services, and adaptive replication for increased data locality
- Machine learning and deep learning workloads on any storage with the improved POSIX API
- Better storage abstraction with support for HDFS clusters across different versions & active sync with Hadoop
