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.

Presto on AWS using Ahana Cloud at Cartona – Omar Mohamed, Cartona

Cartona is one of the fastest growing B2B e-commerce marketplaces in Egypt that connects retailers with suppliers, wholesalers, and production companies. We needed to federate across multiple data sources, including transactional databases like Postgres and AWS S3 data lake. In this session, we’ll talk about how Presto allows us to join across all of these data sources without having to copy or ingest data – it’s all done in place. In addition, we’ll talk about how we were up and running in less than an hour with the Ahana Cloud managed service. It gives us the power of Presto and the ease of use without the need to manage it or have deep skills to deploy and operate it.
