Leveraging the benefits of PrestoDB with 3rd-party BI, reporting, ETL, and custom applications can present unique challenges. The CData Connectivity Solutions allow you to connect, integrate, and automate your PrestoDB data in the tools and applications you already use. In this video, you’ll learn about the different connectivity solutions CData offers and see how to connect to PrestoDB through CData’s technology.
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.
