The latest Alluxio meetups, webinars, conferences and more
Alluxio 2.0 is the most ambitious platform upgrade since the inception of Alluxio with greatly expanded capabilities to empower users to run analytics and AI workloads on private, public or hybrid cloud infrastructures leveraging valuable data wherever it might be stored. This preview release, now available for download, includes many advancements that will allow users to push the limits of their data-workloads in the cloud.
The Alluxio POSIX API enables data engineers to access any distributed file system or cloud storage as if accessing a local file system with an added performance improvement. This reduces the effort and complexity for data engineers to run their machine learning or legacy workloads on new data storage without data migration or data duplication.
TSOS meetups focus on the open source projects that Two Sigma cares most about, from projects we generated in-house then open sourced to large external open source projects that we depend on to do our work. This time, Wenbo Zhao (Two Sigma) and Bin Fan (Alluxio) will be presenting on how Two Sigma uses Alluxio to make data-intensive compute independent of the storage beneath.
This webinar reviews: The observation and analysis of trends of separation of Storage and Compute in Big Data ecosystem; Why and how to build a new data access layer between compute and storage in this data stack; Alluxio open source: history, overview, design, and architecture; Production Use case with Spark, Presto, Tensorflow and etc; A demo of running Presto on Alluxio on S3
Over the past two decades, the Big Data stack has reshaped and evolved quickly with numerous innovations driven by the rise of many different open source projects and communities. In this meetup, speakers from Uber, Alibaba, and Alluxio will share best practices for addressing the challenges and opportunities in the developing data architectures using new and emerging open source building blocks. Topics include data format (ORC) optimization, storage security (HDFS), data format (Parquet) layers, and unified data access (Alluxio) layers.
In this tech talk, we will introduce the Starburst Presto, Alluxio, and Cloud object store stack for building a highly-concurrent and low-latency analytics platform. This stack provides a strong solution to run fast SQL across multiple storage systems including HDFS, S3 and others in public cloud, hybrid cloud and multi cloud environments.
We are excited to present Alluxio 2.0 to our community. The goal of Alluxio 2.0 was to significantly enhance data accessibility with improved APIs, expand use cases supported to include active workloads as well as better metadata management and availability to support hyperscale deployments. Alluxio 2.0 Preview Release is the first major milestone on this path to Alluxio 2.0 and includes many new features.
Enterprises are increasingly looking towards object stores to power their big data & machine learning workloads in a cost-effective way. The combination of SwiftStack and Alluxio together, enables users to seamlessly move towards a disaggregated architecture.
In this Office Hour you’ll learn about:
Using Alluxio as the input/output for Spark applications, Saving and loading Spark RDDs and Dataframes with Alluxio, Open Session for discussion on any topics such as solving the separation of compute and storage problem, unifying multiple storage systems, and more
