Parquet Column Level Access Control with Presto

Parquet Column Level Access Control with Presto

Apache Parquet is the major columnar file storage format used by Apache Presto and several other query engines in many big data analytic frameworks today. In a lot of use cases, a portion of the column data is highly sensitive and must be protected. Column encryption at the file format level is supported in the Parquet community. Due to the rewritten code of Parquet in Presto, Parquet column encryption at Presto needs to be ported with modifications to the Presto code page. And the integration with Key Management Service (KMS) and other query engines like Hive and Spark is another challenge. In this talk, we will show the work we have done for enabling Presto for Parquet column decryption including challenges, solutions, integration with Hive/Spark Parquet column encryption and look forward to the next step of encryption work.

Data analytic tables in the big data ecosystem are usually large and some of them can reach petabytes in size. Presto as a fast query engine needs to be intelligent to skip reading unnecessary data based on filters. In addition to the existing filtering to skip partitions, files, and row groups, Apache Parquet Column Index provides further filtering to pages, which is the I/O unit for the Parquet data source. In this presentation, we will show the work that we integrated Parquet Column Index to Presto code base, the performance gains, etc. We will also talk about our effort to open-source this project to PrestoDB and look forward to collaborating with the community to merge!

Using Presto’s BigQuery Connector for Better Performance and Ad-hoc Query connector for better performance and ad-hoc query in the Cloud – George Wang & Roderick Yao

The Google BigQuery connector gives users the ability to query tables in the BigQuery service, Google Cloud’s fully managed data warehouse. In this presentation, we’ll discuss the BigQuery Connector plugin for Presto which uses the BigQuery Storage API to stream data in parallel, allowing users to query from BigQuery tables via gPRC to achieve a better read performance. We’ll also discuss how the connector enables interactive ad-hoc query to join data across distributed systems for data lake analytics.
