Presto at Varsity Tutors: Using Federated Queries to Power External Reporting – John Cross

Varsity Tutors is a learning platform that enables online academic, professional, and enrichment learning. A growing part of their offering partners with school districts to provide customized support for teachers and students. Varsity Tutors for Schools provides external reporting capabilities including student assessments, progress reports, and more. To provide these timely reports, Varsity Tutors (an AWS shop) uses Presto scripts to perform federated queries across MySQL, Postgres, and Redshift and writes data back to S3. They use Ahana Cloud as their managed service for Presto. In this session, John will discuss what technologies they evaluated, why they chose Presto, and their current data architecture including how they handle security for cross-account writes and how they perform upserts into the final reporting database.

Implementing Lakehouse Architecture with Presto at Bolt – Kostiantyn Tsykulenko, Bolt.eu

Bolt.eu is the first European mobility super-app. We have over 100M users across Europe and Africa and have to deal with data at a large scale on a daily basis (over 100k queries daily). Previously we were using a traditional data warehouse solution based on Redshift but we’ve faced scalability issues that were hard to overcome and after doing our research we chose Presto as the solution. In just a single year we’ve managed to migrate to the Lakehouse architecture using AWS, Presto, Spark and Delta lake. We would like to talk about our journey, some of the challenges we’ve encountered and how we solved them.

Presto on AWS Journey at Twilio – Lesson Learned and Optimization – Aakash Pradeep & Badri Tripathy

Twilio as a leader in cloud communication platforms is very heavy on data and data-based decision making. Most data related use cases are currently powered by the Presto engine. Two years back we started the Journey with Presto in Twilio and today the system has scaled to a multi-PB data lakehouse and supports more than 75k queries per day. In this journey, we learned a lot about how to effectively operationalize Presto on AWS and some of the tricks to have better query reliability, query performance, guard-railing the clusters and save cost. With this talk, we want to share this experience with the community.

Scaling Cache for Presto Iceberg Connector – Beinan Wang, Alluxio & Chunxu Tang

While using the Presto Iceberg connector, the in-heap cache in Presto is likely overloaded. In this talk, Beinan and Chunxu will share the design, implementation, and optimization of the off-heap cache to address the scalability challenges. You will learn how to cache Iceberg data and metadata for the Presto Iceberg connector, followed by future work on improving table scans using Apache Arrow.

Build & Query Secure S3 Data Lakes with Ahana Cloud and AWS Lake Formation

AWS Lake Formation is a service that allows data platform users to set up a secure data lake in days. Creating a data lake with Presto and AWS Lake Formation is as simple as defining data sources and what data access and security policies you want to apply. In this talk, Wen will walk through the recently announced AWS Lake Formation and Ahana integration.

Running PrestoDB on Kubernetes with Ahana Cloud and AWS EKS

PrestoDB is built to be cloud agnostic and container-friendly, but getting it to run on Kubernetes in the cloud can be challenging. In this talk, Gary Stafford (AWS) and Dipti Borkar (Ahana) will discuss: Why use the in-VPC deployment model with AWS and demo, etc – Deploying PrestoDB on AWS EKS using the Ahana Cloud managed service within the user’s AWS account.

Free-Forever Managed Service for Presto for your Cloud-Native Open SQL Lakehouse – Wen Phan, Ahana

Getting started with a do-it-yourself approach to standing up an open SQL Lakehouse can be challenging and cumbersome. Ahana Cloud Community Edition dramatically simplifies it and gives you the ability to learn and validate Presto for your open SQL Lakehouse—for free. In this session, we’ll show you how easy it is to register for, stand up, and use the Ahana Cloud Community Edition to query on top of your Lakehouse.

How Blinkit is Building an Open Data Lakehouse with Presto on AWS – Satyam Krishna & Akshay Agarwal

Blinkit, India’s leading instant delivery service, uses Presto on AWS to help them deliver on their promise of “everything delivered in 10 minutes”. In this session, Satyam and Akshay will discuss why they moved to Presto on S3 from their cloud data warehouse for more flexibility and better price performance. They’ll also share more on their open data lakehouse architecture which includes Presto as their SQL engine for ad hoc reporting, Ahana as SaaS for Presto, Apache Hudi and Iceberg to help manage transactions, and AWS S3 as their data lake.

The Top 10 Reasons Ahana Makes Running Presto in the Cloud Easy – Dipti Borkar & Wen Phan, Ahana

Want to run Presto in the cloud? We’ll give you 10 reasons why it’s easy! Join us for this lightening session where we’ll cover the most cutting edge innovation happening with Presto in the cloud

Presto for Batch Processing in Data Lake – Santhosh Kumar Ravindran, Adroitts

We like to explain how we explored Presto via Ahana service in AWS for our client’s data processing in data lake.

Authorizing Presto with AWS Lake Formation – Jalpreet Singh Nanda, Ahana & Roy Hasson, Amazon

AWS Lake Formation is a service that allows data platform users to set up a secure data lake in days. Creating a data lake with Presto and Lake Formation is as simple as defining data sources and what data access and security policies you want to apply. At Ahana and Amazon, engineers are working on Presto and Lake Formation integration to support Authorization on Presto. This means that Presto clusters will be enforce data permissions on user queries against Lake Formation backed data lakes, which is a tightly integrated Lake Formation, AWS Glue, and Amazon S3 data lake stack. In this session we will present high level design, our leanings, future plans and demo how data platform users can use Lake Formation integration to support fine-grained data access controls on Presto.

A Tour of Presto Iceberg Connector – Beinan Wang, Alluxio & Chunxu Tang, Twitter

Apache Iceberg is an open table format for huge analytic datasets. The Presto Iceberg connector consolidates the SQL engine and the table format, to empower high-performant data analytics. Here, Beinan and Chunxu would like to discuss and share the architectural design of the Presto Iceberg connector, advanced Iceberg feature support (such as native iceberg connector, row-level deletion, and iceberg v2 support), and the future roadmap.

Presto on AWS using Ahana Cloud at Cartona – Omar Mohamed, Cartona

Cartona is one of the fastest growing B2B e-commerce marketplaces in Egypt that connects retailers with suppliers, wholesalers, and production companies. We needed to federate across multiple data sources, including transactional databases like Postgres and AWS S3 data lake. In this session, we’ll talk about how Presto allows us to join across all of these data sources without having to copy or ingest data – it’s all done in place. In addition, we’ll talk about how we were up and running in less than an hour with the Ahana Cloud managed service. It gives us the power of Presto and the ease of use without the need to manage it or have deep skills to deploy and operate it.

Presto and Apache Iceberg – Chunxu Tang, Twitter

Apache Iceberg is an open table format for huge analytic datasets. At Twitter, engineers are working on the Presto-Iceberg connector, aiming to bring high-performance data analytics on Iceberg to the Presto ecosystem. Here, Chunxu would like to share what they have learned during the development, hoping to shed light on the future work of interactive queries.
