Presto on Spark – Facebook – Virtual Meetup

At Facebook, we have spent the past several years in independently building and scaling both Presto and Spark to Facebook scale batch workloads. It is now increasingly evident that there is significant value in coupling Presto’s state-of-art low-latency evaluation with Spark’s robust and fault tolerant execution engine. In this talk, we’ll take a deep dive in Presto and Spark architecture with a focus on key differentiators (e.g., disaggregated shuffle) that are required to further scale Presto.

Executing Any External Code in Any Language with Presto – A Universal Connector – Ravishankar Nair

Connector based architecture is one of the powerful features in Presto for extensibility. While we have a solid pack of many connectors, the ability to reuse an existing external snippet to fetch data and access through Presto will make it enormously helpful. For example, consider accessing mainframe code through Presto using simple SQL which is quite cumbersome to handle by creating a connector paradigm. Ravishankar explores how he implemented this feature using a protocol server and a protocol connector which eventually helped him to achieve a patent on the concept.

Presto On Spark: Scaling not Failing with Spark – Ariel Weisberg, Meta & Shradha Ambekar, Intuit

Presto on Spark is an integration between Presto and Spark that leverages Presto’s compiler/evaluation as a library and Spark’s large scale processing capabilities. It enables a unified SQL experience between interactive and batch use cases. A unified option for batch data processing and ad hoc is very important for creating the experience of queries that scale instead of fail without requiring rewrites between different SQL dialects. In this session, we’ll talk about Presto On Spark architecture, why it matters and its implementation/usage at Intuit.
