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.
In this talk, Walaa describes how LinkedIn extended its Presto Hive Catalog with a smart logical abstraction layer that is capable of reasoning about logical views with UDFs by using two core components, Coral and Transport UDFs. Coral is a view virtualization library, powered by Apache Calcite, that represents views using their logical query plans. Walaa shows how LinkedIn leverages Coral abstractions to decouple view expression language from the execution engine, and hence execute non-Presto-SQL views inside Presto, and achieve on-the-fly query rewrite for data governance and query optimization.
