Women in Open Source & Presto – Getting started in the Presto open source ecosystem

Women in Open Source & Presto – Getting Started in the Presto Open Source Ecosystem – Neha Pawar, Startree; Rebecca Schlussel, Meta; RongRong Zhong, Celonis & Moderated By Dipti Borkar, Microsoft Among GitHub users with at least ten contributions, a mere 6% were women. This is way less than the ratio of women in tech that various research shows at 26%. Given the amount of investment going into and the growth / success of companies based on open source as well as the enormous demand for developers in open source, it is a ratio we need to strive to improve for women. In this panel, we will discuss a few areas: – The journey of each panelist into open source projects – The benefits they have seen by participating in open source projects particularly Presto – The challenges women face in male-dominated open source communities – Ideas, suggestions and guidance to budding engineers on getting started with open source including Presto.

Delta Lake Connector for Presto – Denny Lee, Databricks

Delta lake is an open-source project that enables building a lakehouse architecture on top of existing storage systems such as S3, ADLS, GCS, and HDFS. We – the Presto and Delta Lake communities – have come together to make it easier for Presto to leverage the reliability of data lakes by integrating with Delta Lake. In this session, we would like to share the design decisions and internals of the Presto/Delta connector.
