Building a Distributed File System for the Cloud-Native Era

Alluxio Meetup *

Today, data engineering in modern enterprises has become increasingly more complex and resource-consuming, particularly because (1) the rich amount of organizational data is often distributed across data centers, cloud regions, or even cloud providers, and (2) the complexity of the big data stack has been quickly increasing over the past few years with an explosion in big-data analytics and machine-learning engines (like MapReduce, Hive, Spark, Presto, Tensorflow, PyTorch to name a few).

Alluxio and Apache Ranger Best Practices

Alluxio Product School *

As data stewards and security teams provide broader access to their organization’s data lake environments, having a centralized way to manage fine-grained access policies becomes increasingly important. Alluxio can use Apache Ranger’s centralized access policies in two ways: 1) directly controlling access to virtual paths in the Alluxio virtual file system or 2) enforcing existing access policies for the HDFS under stores. This presentation discusses how the Alluxio virtual filesystem can be integrated with Apache Ranger.

Introduction to what’s new in Alluxio 2.4

Community Online Office Hour *

Alluxio 2.4.0 focuses on features critical to large scale, production deployments in Cloud and Hybrid Cloud environments. Features such as highly scalable metadata journaling, aggregate cluster metrics monitoring, and automated detection of JVM pauses further improve Alluxio’s suitability for demanding workloads.

Accelerating Data Computation on Ceph Objects using Alluxio

Alluxio Global Online Meetup *

In this talk, we will present how using Alluxio computation and storage ecosystems can better interact benefiting of the “bringing the data close to the code” approach. Moving away from the complete disaggregation of computation and storage, data locality can enhance the computation performance.

Accelerate Analytics and ML in the Hybrid Cloud Era

Alluxio Tech Talk *

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.

StorageQuery: federated querying on object stores, powered by Alluxio and Presto

Alluxio Global Online Meetup *

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.

Accelerating Queries on Cloud Data Lakes

ITPro Today Webinar *

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.

Enabling Hybrid Cloud Analytics and AI with Data Orchestration

IoT World Today Webinar *

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.
