Disaggregated Coordinator – Swapnil Tailor, Facebook

In the existing Presto architecture, single coordinator has become a bottleneck in a number of ways for cluster scalability. – With an increasing number of workers, the coordinator has the potential of slow down due to a high number of tasks. – In high QPS use cases, we have found workers can become starved of splits by excessive CPU being spend on task updates in coordinator. – Also with single coordinator, we have an upper limit on the worker pool because of above-mentioned reasons. To overcome with this challenges, we are coming up with a new architecture which supports multiple coordinators in a single cluster.

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.
