Session to provide insights for architecting a heterogeneous data platform
SAN MATEO, CA – October 12, 2022 - Alluxio, the developer of the open source data orchestration platform for data driven workloads such as large-scale analytics and AI/ML, today announced its participation in QCon San Francisco, taking place October 24 - 28, 2022 at the Hyatt Regency San Francisco.
Alluxio Session at QCon San Francisco
Tuesday, October 25 at 2:55 pm PDT – “Architecting Your Data Platform Across Clusters, Regions, and Clouds,” by Adit Madan, director of product management at Alluxio.
Data platform teams are increasingly challenged with accessing multiple data stores that are separated from compute engines, such as Spark, Presto, TensorFlow or PyTorch. Whether data is distributed across multiple datacenters and/or clouds, a successful heterogeneous data platform requires efficient data access. Alluxio enables companies to embrace the cloud migration strategy or multi-cloud architecture for large-scale analytics and AI workloads. Alluxio also helps scale out platform adoption for analytics and AI across multiple tenants andapplications teams.
Join Alluxio’s Director of Product Management, Adit Madan, to learn:
- Key challenges with architecting a successful heterogeneous data platform
- How to increase agility and lower TCO by scaling compute and storage independently across environments without data copies
- How companies from different industries are using Alluxio to meet the needs of their own data environment and workload requirements
QCon registration is open here.
Additionally, at P99 Conf on October 19 and 20, Alluxio Founding Engineer and VP of Open Source Bin Fan’s session titled, “Building a High-Performance Scalable Metadata Service for a Distributed File System,” can be viewed virtually throughout the event. Bin will also join Meta’s Ke Wang at the Linux Foundation Member Summit on November 8 co-presenting a session titled, “How to Foster Cross Community Collaboration, Lessons Learned.”

AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS, JUNE 10, 2025 — In today’s confusing and messy enterprise software market, innovative technology solutions that realize real customer results are hard to come by. As an industry analyst firm that focuses on enterprise digital transformation and the disruptive vendors that support it, Intellyx interacts with numerous innovators in the enterprise IT marketplace.
Alluxio, supplier of open source virtual distributed file systems, announced Alluxio Enterprise AI 3.6. This delivers capabilities for model distribution, model training checkpoint writing optimization, and enhanced multi-tenancy support. It can, we’re told, accelerate AI model deployment cycles, reduce training time, and ensure data access across cloud environments. The new release uses Alluxio Distributed Cache to accelerate model distribution workloads; by placing the cache in each region, model files need only be copied from the Model Repository to the Alluxio Distributed Cache once per region rather than once per server.
