Customer-Facing Presto at Rippling – Andy Li, Rippling
Presto is used for a variety of cases, but tends to be used for larger scale analytical queries. We have been transitioning to using Presto to power our data platform and customer-facing scripting language, RQL (Rippling Query Language) to run arbitrary customer queries to power core products. Presto helps enable diverse, federated querying at scale. In this talk, Andy will cover where Presto sits in Rippling’s ecosystem as a core query layer, our collaboration and contributions for closer integration with Apache Pinot, and learnings on using Presto to handle a large variety of query patterns.
The Past, Present, and Future of Presto – Philip Bell, Meta
PrestoDB recently underwent major architectural updates as the Presto Foundation grows membership and is looking to vastly grow the number of new commits and forks. Achieving this desired end state required successful refactoring and improving of Presto’s already impressive speed, efficiency, reliability, and extensibility. Establishing PrestoDB as a premier Open Source project required a major commitment of time and resources from Meta to ensure the community can benefit from this project for years to come, as well as positioning PrestoDB to evolve beyond what Meta alone could create. Members of the Presto Foundation need more of you to be involved in this major evolution in Presto’s history and core components, and bring your own inventive ideas to the mix.
Realtime Analytics with Presto and Apache Pinot – Xiang Fu
In this world, most analytics products either focus on ad-hoc analytics, which requires query flexibility without guaranteed latency, or low latency analytics with limited query capability. In this talk, we will explore how to get the best of both worlds using Apache Pinot and Presto: 1. How people do analytics today to trade-off Latency and Flexibility: Comparison over analytics on raw data vs pre-join/pre-cube dataset. 2. Introduce Apache Pinot as a column store for fast real-time data analytics and Presto Pinot Connector to cover the entire landscape. 3. Deep dive into Presto Pinot Connector to see how the connector does predicate and aggregation push down. 4. Benchmark results for Presto Pinot connector.
