The latest Alluxio meetups, webinars, conferences and more
Hear how DBS Bank is taking a new approach to making data-intensive compute independent of the storage. They will share the challenges as well as the new technology stack that includes technologies like Spark, Alluxio and object stores.
A new generation of open source big data, represented by Alluxio, born at the University of California at Berkeley, looks at this issue. Different from systems such as designing storage tight coupling to achieve low-cost reliable storage HDFS, by providing a virtual data storage layer defined and implemented by software for data applications, abstracting and integrating cloudy, hybrid cloud, multi-data center and other environments The underlying files and objects, and through intelligent workload analysis and data management, make data close to computing and provide data locality, big data and machine learning applications can be achieved with the same performance and lower cost.
Alluxio can help data scientists and data engineers interact with different storage systems in a hybrid cloud environment. Using Alluxio as a data access layer for Big Data and Machine Learning applications, data processing pipelines can improve efficiency without explicit data ETL steps and the resulting data duplication across storage systems.
This technical salon will focus on big data, storage, database and Alluxio application practice, and invite Tencent technical experts and industry technical experts to share the basic principles of Alluxio system, big data system architecture, database application operation and maintenance, AI computer. Themes such as visual technology and landing practice bring rich practical content and experience exchange.
What’s Spark+AI Summit? It’s the world’s largest conference that is focused on Apache Spark – Alluxio’s older cousin open source project from the same lab (UC Berkeley’s AMPLab – now RISElab).
In this talk, we will focus on Alluxio design, its architecture, data flow and metadata flow. We will dive into the choices in its design space and share the experiences when implementing features like data tiering, storage options and cache eviction policies. We will also share our lessons in design, implementation and operation when working to build an open source distributed storage systems with 900 contributors for 5+ years.
Open source software always plays critical role in software development. From Linux kernel to TensorFlow, it drives a lot of awesome projects which created trend and led direction of technology.
We are pleased to have several experts, Reynold Xin, Dongxu Huang, Qing Han, Bin Fan, Amelia Wong, etc. who will share the technology and stories on their successful open source project.
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.
