Shared Foundations Of Composable Data Systems – Biswapesh Chattopadhyay, Google

Data processing systems have evolved significantly over the last decade, driven by various factors such as the advent of cloud computing, increasingly complexity of applications such as ML, HTAP, Streaming, Observability and Graph processing. However, historically, these frameworks have evolved independently, leading to significant fragmentation of the stack. In this talk, I will talk about how this has evolved in the open source and at Meta, and how we are solving this problem through the Shared Foundations effort, leading to composable systems. This has resulted in significantly better performance, more features, higher engineering velocity and a more consistent user experience.

Query Execution Optimization for Broadcast Join using Replicated-Reads Strategy – George Wang, Ahana

Query Execution Optimization for Broadcast Join using Replicated-Reads Strategy – George Wang, Ahana

Today presto supports broadcast join by having a worker to fetch data from a small data source to build a hash table and then sending the entire data over the network to all other workers for hash lookup probed by large data source. This can be optimized by a new query execution strategy as source data from small tables is pulled directly by all workers which is known as replicated reads from dimension tables. This feature comes with a nice caching property given that all worker nodes N are now participating in scanning the data from remote sources. The table scan operation for dimension tables is cacheable per all worker nodes. In addition, there will be better resource utilization because the presto scheduler can now reduce the number plan fragment to execute as the same workers run tasks in parallel within a single stage to reduce data shuffles.
