As the amount of data analyzed and stored continues to grow exponentially, fixed on-premises infrastructure like Apache Hadoop data lakes becomes costly. Add to that the need to support newer and popular frameworks on an already busy data lake, it is not uncommon to see Hadoop-based data lakes running at beyond 100% utilization and hybrid processing split between physical and cloud infrastructure. As a result, companies are looking to leverage the flexibility and cost savings of the cloud.
Join us for this tech talk where we will show you how Alluxio can help burst your private computing environment to Google Cloud, minimizing costs and I/O overhead. Alluxio coupled with Google’s open source data and analytics processing engine, Dataproc, enables zero-copy burst for faster query performance in the cloud so you can take advantage of resources that are not local to your data, without the need for managing the copying or syncing of that data.
We’ll also show a demo on how to get up and running with Alluxio and Dataproc, including how to:
- Setup your hybrid environment between your private datacenter and Google Cloud Platform
- Burst a Spark based machine learning algorithm to Dataproc while accessing on-prem data
- Scale analytic workloads directly on data on-prem without copying and synchronizing the data into the cloud

Coupang is a leading e-commerce company in South Korea, with over 50,000 employees and $20+ billion in annual revenue. Coupang's AI platform team builds and manages a large-scale AI platform in AWS for machine learning engineers to train models that enhance and customize product search results and product recommendations for its 100+ million customers.
As the search and recommendation models evolve, optimizing the underlying infrastructure for AI/ML workloads is essential for the e-commerce business. Coupang's platform team actively sought to improve their model training pipeline to boost machine learning engineers' productivity, publish models to production faster, and reduce operational costs.
Coupang focused on addressing several key areas:
- Shortening data preparation and model training time
- Improving GPU utilization in training clusters in different regions
- Reducing S3 API and egress costs incurred from copying large training datasets across regions
- Simplifying the operational complexity of storage system management
In this tech talk, Hyun Jung Baek, Staff Backend Engineer at Coupang, will share best practices for leveraging distributed caching to power search and recommendation model training infrastructure.
Hyun will discuss:
- How Coupang builds a world-class large-scale AI platform for machine learning engineers to deliver better search and recommendation models
- How adding distributed caching to their multi-region AI infrastructure improves GPU utilization, accelerates end-to-end training time, and significantly reduces cross-region data transfer costs.
- How to simplify platform operations and to easily deploy the same architecture to new GPU clusters.

Deepseek’s recent announcement of the Fire-flyer File System (3FS) has sparked excitement across the AI infra community, promising a breakthrough in how machine learning models access and process data.
In this webinar, an expert in distributed systems and AI infrastructure will take you inside Deepseek 3FS, the purpose-built file system for handling large files and high-bandwidth workloads. We’ll break down how 3FS optimizes data access and speeds up AI workloads as well as the design tradeoffs made to maximize throughput for AI workloads.
This webinar you’ll learn about how 3FS works under the hood, including:
✅ The system architecture
✅ Core software components
✅ Read/write flows
✅ Data distribution/placement algorithms
✅ Cluster/node management and disaster recovery
Whether you’re an AI researcher, ML engineer, or infrastructure architect, this deep dive will give you the technical insights you need to determine if 3FS is the right solution for you.
