Deep learning architecture using Tachyon and Spark & Tachyon New Features

Bay Area Meetup *

In the presentation, we will explore several potential industry use cases enabled by the new features. One-click cluster deployment enables users to experiment and prototype with Tachyon on AWS, launching not only Tachyon but also the computation framework and storage system of their choice. Mounting of multiple under storage systems and transparent naming enables more exciting use cases for Tachyon users.

Tachyon: Past, Present and Future

Bay Area Meetup *

Tachyon is a memory-centric fault-tolerant distributed storage system, which enables reliable file sharing at memory-speed. It originated from AMPLab, UC Berkeley in 2012, the same lab produced Apache Mesos and Apache Spark. Soon later, it became an open source project and is deployed at many companies. Since then, Tachyon has attracted more than 200 contributors from over 50 institutions. In 2015, company Tachyon Nexus was founded to further accelerate the development of Tachyon. In this talk, we will review Tachyon’s new features, deployments, and developments in 2015, and look into 2016.

Alluxio (formerly Tachyon): New Features and Demos

Bay Area Meetup *

Big data ecosystem is moving with massive energy, customers are from healthcare, retail, transportation, and other fields are benefiting significantly from the business insights derived. As the data growth continues, storage technologies and distributed memory systems are becoming even more important for real time decision making and insight discovery. Intel is excited to work with developer communities on Alluxio and to optimize Alluxio solutions on Intel platform. In this talk, Ziya will discuss Intel’s optimization work in the area, open source contribution and industry use cases.

Past, Present and Future of Alluxio [Chinese]

Shanghai Meetup *

The Alluxio project has greatly improved system performance, Scalability and user experience, and added a series of new features, including scalable tiered storage, transparent UFS data reading and writing, unified namespaces, and more. Easy to use with Alluxio. At the same time, the Alluxio ecosystem has expanded to support different storage systems and computing frameworks. Alluxio now supports a variety of storage systems, including Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, Gluster, Ceph, HDFS, NFS and OpenStack Swift, as well as big data processing frameworks such as Spark, MapReduce, Flink and more. These integrations allow Alluxio to manage and help with more and more complex data.

1st Beijing Alluxio (Formerly Tachyon) Meetup

Beijing Meetup *

In the active community development of the past year, Alluxio has greatly improved its read and write performance, scalability and user experience. In addition, in terms of functionality, Alluxio has added a number of new features, such as scalable tiered storage, transparent UFS data reading and writing, unified namespaces, and more. These features bring more value to Alluxio users and more efficient and convenient cluster storage management.

Alluxio: Unifying APIs, Accelerating ML, & Enabling Cloud Architectures

Bay Area Meetup *

Using intermediate APIs means developers can learn just one framework and still access features offered by different technologies. It means writing job logic only once and being able to test it easily on a new underlying service with no effort. Not only is modularity a win for users but it means creators of execution frameworks and storage systems can focus on performance and capability without having to worry about API maintenance.

Enterprises typically store large amounts of data in existing storage systems, which are often separate from big data analytics systems. Therefore, importing petabytes of data into a big data analytics system takes a long time with large overheads and high costs. Even worse, transferring large amounts of data results in data silos and unnecessary duplication, which creates serious data management problems.
