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.

Predicting Resource Usages of Future Queries Based on 10M Presto Queries at Twitter

Predicting Resource Usages of Future Queries Based on 10M Presto Queries at Twitter

Here, Chunxu and Beinan would like to share what they have learned in developing a highly-scalable query predictor service through applying machine learning algorithms to ~10 million historical Presto queries to classify queries based on their CPU times and peak memory bytes. At Twitter, this service is helping to improve the performance of Presto clusters and provide expected execution statistics on Business Intelligence dashboards.

Speed Up Presto Reading with Paquet Column Indexes – Xinli Shang, & Chen Liang, Uber

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!

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.

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.
