Facebook operates Presto at an enormous scale. A critical part of the success of Presto is properly tuning the clusters according to the use case they target. Swapnil Tailor, Basar Onat and Tim Meehan describe important session properties and configuration properties used to configure Presto, and guidance on when and how to use them.
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.
