StorageQuery: federated querying on object stores, powered by Alluxio and Presto
August 25, 2020
Over the last few years, organizations have worked towards the separation of storage and compute for a number of benefits in the areas of cost, data duplication and data latency. Cloud resolves most of these issues but comes to the expense of needing a way to query data on remote storages. Alluxio and Presto are a powerful combination to address the compute problem, which is part of the strategy used by Simbiose Ventures to create a product called StorageQuery – A platform to query files in cloud storages with SQL.
This talk will focus on:
- How Alluxio fits StorageQuery’s tech stack;
- Advantages of using Alluxio as a cache layer and its unified filesystem
- Development of new under file system for Backblaze B2 and fine-grained code documentation;
- ShannonDB remote storage mode.
