Guardant Health: Fast, scalable, data processing with Alluxio, Mesos, and Minio

Alluxio and Mesos Joint Meetup *

Speed is usually a key factor when analyzing large amounts of data. Alluxio enables analytics applications, such as Apache Spark, to retrieve stored data at memory speeds. DC/OS makes it easy to deploy distributed programs (such as Alluxio and Spark) and containers across large clusters.
In this talk, we will first discuss the development of the DC/OS Alluxio package, which deploys Alluxio on top of DC/OS, and then then demo the deployment a complete analytics stack, both with and without Alluxio, in order to see the benefits Alluxio provides.

Alluxio Exploration And Application Practice Meetup

Beijing Meetup *

In this issue, the Drip Technology Salon and the Alluxio community invited the core engineers of Didi Travel, Alluxio, Kyligence, JD.com, and Tencent to revolve around Alluxio’s position and design philosophy in the big data ecosystem, architectural features, latest developments, and well-known The company’s production-level environmental application exploration and practice, as well as the experience in the use of the process and other topics, and in-depth participants to share.

Apache Kylin And Alluxio Meetup

Shanghai Meetup *

With the development of online services and clusters, the HDFS NameNode becomes a performance bottleneck of the HDFS cluster, which is not conducive to the horizontal expansion of the cluster.
The community’s Federation + viewFs solution solves the problem of horizontal scaling of HDFS, but the configuration of this solution is implemented on the client side, which is not conducive to the operation and management of large-scale clusters. Using Alluxio as a unified portal for multiple HDFS clusters, operation and maintenance management is convenient, and distributed cache capability is provided.

Shanghai Meetup: Talks from Ctrip, Qiniu, Intel & Alluxio

Shanghai Meetup *

The future is the era of data, and the abstraction of efficient management, storage, and access to data is undoubtedly the cornerstone of this era. Open source distributed virtual data system Alluxio is dedicated to providing simple and efficient data abstraction, convenient data sharing and high-speed I/O for big data, machine learning, and artificial intelligence, while keeping applications and data persistent and providing rich Storage system selection.
After several years of development, Alluxio was developed from a prototype of a research project involving only a few Ph.D. students and researchers in the AMPLab at the University of California, Berkeley, to more than 800 code contributors (Alluxio 1.8 release data), and deployed in Tencent. Baidu, JD, Two-Sigma, Barclays Bank and other hundreds of Chinese and foreign industry leaders in the production environment, become an important part of the data platform and data infrastructure.

Alluxio+Presto: An Architecture for Fast SQL in the Cloud

Bay Area Meetup *

Cloud object storage systems provide different semantics and performance implications compared to HDFS. Applications like Presto cannot benefit from the node-level locality or cross-job caching when reading from the cloud. Deploying Alluxio with Presto to access cloud solves these problems because data will be retrieved and cached in Alluxio instead of the underlying cloud or object storage repeatedly. Bin will present the architecture to combine Presto with Alluxio with use cases from major internet companies like JD.com and NetEase.com, and their lessons learned to operate this architecture at scale.

Unified Big Data Analytics – Any stack, Any Cloud

Boston Meetup *

This presentation focuses on how Alluxio helps the big data analytics stack to be cloud-native. The trending Cloud object storage systems provide more cost-effective and scalable storage solutions but also different semantics and performance implications compared to HDFS. Applications like Spark or Presto will not benefit from the node-level locality or cross-job caching when retrieving data from the cloud object storage. Deploying Alluxio to access cloud solves these problems because data will be retrieved and cached in Alluxio instead of the underlying cloud or object storage repeatedly.

Alluxio 2.0 Deep Dive & A Case of Real-time Processing with Spark

Bay Area Meetup *

We are excited to present Alluxio 2.0 to our community. The goal of Alluxio 2.0 was to significantly enhance data accessibility with improved APIs, expand use cases supported to include active workloads as well as better metadata management and availability to support hyperscale deployments. Alluxio 2.0 Preview Release is the first major milestone on this path to Alluxio 2.0 and includes many new features.

Efficient & Secure Big Data Analytics: Perspectives from Uber, Alibaba, & Alluxio

Seattle Meetup *

Over the past two decades, the Big Data stack has reshaped and evolved quickly with numerous innovations driven by the rise of many different open source projects and communities. In this meetup, speakers from Uber, Alibaba, and Alluxio will share best practices for addressing the challenges and opportunities in the developing data architectures using new and emerging open source building blocks. Topics include data format (ORC) optimization, storage security (HDFS), data format (Parquet) layers, and unified data access (Alluxio) layers.
