A Git-like Repository for your Data Lake – Vinodhini Sivakami Duraisamy, Treeverse We tend to adopt practices that improve the flexibility of development and the velocity of code deployment, but how confident are we that the complex data system is safe once it arrives in production? We must be able to experiment in production and automate actions while minimizing customer pain and reducing damage to code and data. If your product’s value is derived from data in the shape of analytics or machine learning, losing it, or having corrupted data, can easily translate into pain. In this session, you will discover how chaos engineering principles apply to distributed data systems and the tools that enable us to make our data workloads more resilient.

Presto on Elastic Capacity – Neerad Somanchi & Abhisek Saikia, Meta

Presto on elastic capacity – Elasticity of a shared fleet is one of the fundamental pillars of the IaaS (Infrastructure-as-a-Service) world. The ability of services to efficiently use both guaranteed and non-guaranteed (opportunistic) capacity is important in such a setting. Presto is great when it runs on guaranteed capacity (i.e, capacity that is fixed and stable). But what if we want Presto to leverage elastic (opportunistic) capacity, i.e, capacity that is shifting, but in a predictable manner (think Amazon EC2 Spot Blocks)? In this lightning presentation, Neerad Somanchi and Abhisek Saikia will talk about how a recent feature developed for Presto can help it efficiently utilize such elastic compute.
