Presto Query Analysis for Data Layout Formatting and Query Result Caching – Gurmeet Singh, Uber

In this talk, I will be talking about a microservice that we have built at Uber to be able to analyze Presto queries. The Presto Query Engine does not provide endpoints for query analysis purposes. One has to either execute the query or gather insights from the query explain plan. In this talk, I will talk about 1. The work that we had to do to do the query analysis in a microservice using Presto as a library. 2. Doing predicate analysis on the queries to come up with data formatting recommendations in order to improve query performance. 3. Using the analysis service for query result cache invalidation. The analysis figures out whether the results from a previous run of the query are still valid and can be reused.

HermesDB – Integrated Presto with a lucene-based Query Engine – Yue Long, Tencent

HermesDB is the next generation of OLAP engine at Tencent with the architecture featuring separation of storage and calculation. HermesDB characterizes efficient indexing files in storage data, equipping with customized Presto as the core query engine. With the help of Presto connector, HermesDB could not only support full ANSI syntax but also ultilize Apache Lucene as underlying computer core. Besides, we are in the progress of improving the end-to-end performance with the newly released Java Vector APIs, acclecerating different kinds of complex computations with SIMD instructions. According to the benchmark(SSB) we have, HermesDB outperformances other mainstream C++ based MPP engines.

Presto at Tencent at Scale: Usability Extension, Stability Improvement and Performance Optimization – Junyi Huang & Pan Liu

Presto has been adopted at Tencent as scale to serve scenarios of ad-hoc queries and interactive queries for different business units. In this talk, we’d like to share our practice of Presto in production. In details, we’ll talk about our works to further improve the stability, extend the usability, and optimize the performance of Presto. The works all together make Presto better fit in our production environment, which we think will also benefit the community.
