Build & Query Secure S3 Data Lakes with Ahana Cloud and AWS Lake Formation

Build & Query Secure S3 Data Lakes with Ahana Cloud and AWS Lake Formation

AWS Lake Formation is a service that allows data platform users to set up a secure data lake in days. Creating a data lake with Presto and AWS Lake Formation is as simple as defining data sources and what data access and security policies you want to apply. In this talk, Wen will walk through the recently announced AWS Lake Formation and Ahana integration.

AWS Lake Formation is a service that allows data platform users to set up a secure data lake in days. Creating a data lake with Presto and Lake Formation is as simple as defining data sources and what data access and security policies you want to apply. At Ahana and Amazon, engineers are working on Presto and Lake Formation integration to support Authorization on Presto. This means that Presto clusters will be enforce data permissions on user queries against Lake Formation backed data lakes, which is a tightly integrated Lake Formation, AWS Glue, and Amazon S3 data lake stack. In this session we will present high level design, our leanings, future plans and demo how data platform users can use Lake Formation integration to support fine-grained data access controls on Presto.

How Carbon uses PrestoDB in the Cloud with Ahana to Power its Real-time Customer Dashboards

How Carbon uses PrestoDB in the Cloud with Ahana to Power its Real-time Customer Dashboards

Carbon is a real-time revenue management platform that consolidates revenue and audience analytics, data management, and yield operations into a single solution. Real-time analytics is super critical – their customers rely on real-time data to make revenue decisions. After facing issues around performance, visibility & ease of use, and serverless pricing model with AWS Athena, the team moved to a managed service for PrestoDB in the cloud – Ahana Cloud – to power their customer-facing dashboards. In this session, Jordan will discuss some of the reasons the team moved from AWS Athena to a managed PrestoDB on Intel-optimized AWS instances. He will also dive into their current architecture that includes an Ahana-managed Hive Metastore along with Apache ORC file format and an S3-based data lake. Last, he’ll share some performance benchmarks and talk about what’s next for PrestoDB at Carbon.
