Presto on Kafka at Scale – Yang Yang & Yupeng Fu, Uber

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.

Delta Lake Connector for Presto – Denny Lee, Databricks

Delta lake is an open-source project that enables building a lakehouse architecture on top of existing storage systems such as S3, ADLS, GCS, and HDFS. We – the Presto and Delta Lake communities – have come together to make it easier for Presto to leverage the reliability of data lakes by integrating with Delta Lake. In this session, we would like to share the design decisions and internals of the Presto/Delta connector.
