Presto on ARM – Chunxu Tang & Jiaming Mai, Alluxio

Presto on ARM – Chunxu Tang & Jiaming Mai, Alluxio

Traditionally, the deployment of Presto has been limited to Intel processors with the x86 architecture. However, with the growing popularity of ARM architecture, Chunxu and Jiaming have extended the Presto ecosystem to ARM and conducted a series of benchmark experiments. Their objective is to evaluate the performance of Presto on ARM architecture and identify key insights from the experiments. In this presentation, Chunxu and Jiaming will share the results of their performance evaluation and discuss some of the most significant findings from their research.

The Future of Presto’s Query Optimizer – Bill McKenna, Ahana

The Future of Presto’s Query Optimizer – Bill McKenna, Ahana

In this talk, you will hear from the query optimizer OG himself, Bill McKenna (Principal software engineer at Ahana, Architect for the query optimizer that became the code base of the Amazon Redshift query optimizer, and co-author of The Volcano Optimizer Generator: Extensibility and Efficient Search) go into detail about the state of modern query optimizers, and how Presto stacks up against them and where it will go in the near future. If database theory is your jam, you won’t want to miss this deeply technical presentation from one of the pioneers in the field.
