How to Build a new Under Filesystem in Alluxio: Apache Ozone as an Example

In Alluxio, an Under File System is the plugin to connect to any file systems or object stores, so users can mount different storages like AWS S3 or HDFS into Alluxio namespace. This under filesystem is designed to be modular, in order to enable users to easily extend this framework with their own Under File System implementation and connect to a new or customized storage system.

Introducing Wormhole: Dockerized Presto & Alluxio setups for blazing fast analytics

This is a guest blog by Ashwin Sinha with an original blog source. This blog introduces Wormhole— open source Dockerized solution for deploying Presto & Alluxio clusters for blazing fast analytics on file system (we use S3, GCS, OSS). When it comes to analytics, generally people are hands-on in writing SQL queries and love to analyse data which resides in a warehouse (e.g. MySQL database). But as data grows, these … Continued
