Alluxio is an open-source data orchestration system widely used to speed up data-intensive workloads in the cloud. Alluxio v2.0 introduced Replicated Async Write to allow users to complete writes to Alluxio file system and return quickly with high application performance, while still providing users with peace of mind that data will be persisted to the chosen under storage like S3 in the background.
This meetup presents an overview of the motivations and design decisions behind the major changes in the Alluxio 2.0 release, and Real-time Data Processing for Sales Attribution Analysis with Alluxio, Spark and Hive at VIPShop.

Today, real-time computation platform is becoming increasingly important in many organizations. In this article, we will describe how ctrip.com applies Alluxio to accelerate the Spark SQL real-time jobs and maintain the jobs’ consistency during the downtime of our internal data lake (HDFS). In addition, we leverage Alluxio as a caching layer to dramatically reduce the workload pressure on our HDFS NameNode.

Many organizations have taken advantage of the scalability and cost-savings of cloud computing as well as cloud storage services to meet their data-powered workload demands. In addition, as data is increasingly siloed and lives everywhere, there’s a need for data orchestration to bring the needed data closer to compute. With Alluxio’s data orchestration platform, bring back data locality for your compute with in-memory & tiered data access.
