The latest Alluxio meetups, webinars, conferences and more
In this talk, we describe the architecture to migrate analytics workloads incrementally to any public cloud (AWS, Google Cloud Platform, or Microsoft Azure) directly on on-prem data without copying the data to cloud storage.
In this talk, we will walk through what Alluxio’s Data Orchestration for the hybrid cloud era is and how it solves the performance and data management challenges we see.
In this talk, we will share our experience implementing an effective data orchestration solution in Kubernetes for Machine learning workloads with the Alluxio in Alibaba Cloud. The solution greatly improves the performance with 32 GPUs for distributed deep learning training with ResNet50 using imageNet Dataset. Benchmark results show a speedup of at-least 3x at no extra cost.
For many latency-sensitive SQL workloads, Presto is often bound by retrieving distant data. In this talk, Rohit Jain, James Sun from Facebook and Bin Fan from Alluxio will introduce their teams’ collaboration on adding a local on-SSD Alluxio cache inside Presto workers to improve unsatisfied Presto latency.
Over the last few years, organizations have worked towards the separation of storage and compute for a number of benefits in the areas of cost, data duplication and data latency. Cloud resolves most of these issues but comes to the expense of needing a way to query data on remote storages. Alluxio and Presto are a powerful combination to address the compute problem, which is part of the strategy used by Simbiose Ventures to create a product called StorageQuery – A platform to query files in cloud storages with SQL.
Join us for this webinar where Alex Ma of Alluxio, an open source data orchestration platform, will discuss how a data orchestration approach offers a solution for connecting traditional on-prem data centers with the cloud, data centers with other data centers, and clouds with other clouds. With Alluxio’s “zero-copy” burst solution, companies can bridge remote data centers with computing frameworks in other locations, enabling them to offload compute and leverage the flexibility, scalability, and power of the cloud for their remote data.
Adit Madan and Parviz Peiravi offer an overview of the Alluxio data orchestration layer that provides a unified data access layer for hybrid and multi cloud deployments, leveraging Intel® Optane™ Persistent Memory for higher performance caching at reduced cost. The data access layer enables distributed compute engines like Presto, TensorFlow, and PyTorch to transparently access data from various storage systems (including S3, HDFS, and Azure) while actively leveraging a multi-tier cache to accelerate data access.
In this talk, we will describe how we have solved an issue with large S3 API costs incurred by Presto under several usage concurrency levels by implementing Alluxio as a data orchestration layer between S3 and Presto. Also, we will show the results of an experiment with estimating the per-query S3 API costs using the TPC-DS dataset.
Alluxio 2.3 was just released at the end of June 2020. Calvin and Bin will go over the new features and integrations available and share learnings from the community. Any questions about the release and on-going community feature development are welcome.
