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.

Women in Open Source & Presto – Getting started in the Presto open source ecosystem

Women in Open Source & Presto – Getting Started in the Presto Open Source Ecosystem – Neha Pawar, Startree; Rebecca Schlussel, Meta; RongRong Zhong, Celonis & Moderated By Dipti Borkar, Microsoft Among GitHub users with at least ten contributions, a mere 6% were women. This is way less than the ratio of women in tech that various research shows at 26%. Given the amount of investment going into and the growth / success of companies based on open source as well as the enormous demand for developers in open source, it is a ratio we need to strive to improve for women. In this panel, we will discuss a few areas: – The journey of each panelist into open source projects – The benefits they have seen by participating in open source projects particularly Presto – The challenges women face in male-dominated open source communities – Ideas, suggestions and guidance to budding engineers on getting started with open source including Presto.
