Hudi tables via Presto-Hive connector: A Deep Dive

With the growing popularity of the lakehouse approach, it has become increasingly important for query engines to support these new formats such as Hudi. A previous blog discusses the evolution of presto-hudi integration via hive connector at a high level. With the latest community developments, a separate presto-hudi connector has come up but it is…

PrestoDB and Apache Hudi

Apache Hudi is a fast growing data lake storage system that helps organizations build and manage petabyte-scale data lakes. Hudi brings stream style processing to batch-like big data by introducing primitives such as upserts, deletes and incremental queries. These features help surface faster, fresher data on a unified serving layer. Hudi tables can be stored…

Running Presto in a Hybrid Cloud Architecture

Migrating SQL workloads from a fully on-premise environment to cloud infrastructure has numerous benefits, including alleviating resource contention and reducing costs by paying for computation resources on an on-demand basis. In the case of Presto running on data stored in HDFS, the separation of compute in the cloud and storage on-premises is apparent since Presto’s…

Improving the Presto planner for better push down and data federation

Presto defines a connector API that allows Presto to query any data source that has a connector implementation. The existing connector API provides basic predicate pushdown functionality allowing connectors to perform filtering at the underlying data source. However, there are certain limitations with the existing predicate pushdown functionality that limits what connectors can do. The…
