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.
Presto is a popular distributed SQL query engine for running interactive analytic queries. Presto provides a Connector API that allows plugins to dozens of data sources, and thus positions itself as a single point of access to a wide variety of data. At Uber, we significantly improved Presto’s Kafka connector to meet Uber’s scale. For example, the new connector allows dynamic Kafka cluster and topic discovery so users can directly query existing Kafka topics without any registration and onboarding process; dynamic schema discovery allows fetching the latest schema without any Presto restart or deployment; smart time range suggestions to users based on Kafka metadata analysis to avoid large-range scans and thus keep the query interactive.
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.
