Presto is an open source distributed SQL query engine for running interactive analytic queries against data sources of all sizes ranging from gigabytes to petabytes. Presto was designed and written from the ground up for interactive analytics and approaches the speed of commercial data warehouses while scaling to the size of organizations like Facebook. One key feature in Presto is the ability to query data where it lives via a uniform ANSI SQL interface. Presto’s connector architecture creates an abstraction layer for anything that can be expressed in a row-like format, such as HDFS, Amazon S3, Azure Storage, NoSQL stores, relational databases, Kafka streams and even proprietary data stores. Furthermore, a single Presto query can combine data from multiple sources, allowing for analytics across your entire organization.
This talk will be co-presented by Facebook and Teradata, the two largest contributors to Presto. The talk will focus on Presto’s ability to query virtually any data source via it’s connector interface. Facebook and Teradata will present some of their use cases of Presto querying various data sources, discuss the existing connectors in Presto, and describe the anatomy of a connector.
Big Data Day LA 2015 - Always-on Ingestion for Data at Scale by Arvind Prabha...Data Con LA
While the last few years have seen great advancements in computing paradigms for big data stores, there remains one critical bottleneck in this architecture - the ingestion process. Instead of immediate insights into the data, a poor ingestion process can cause headaches and problems to no end. On the other hand, a well-designed ingestion infrastructure should give you real-time visibility into how your systems are functioning at any given time. This can significantly increase the overall effectiveness of your ad-campaigns, fraud-detection systems, preventive-maintenance systems, or other critical applications underpinning your business.
In this session we will explore various modes of ingest including pipelining, pub-sub, and micro-batching, and identify the use-cases where these can be applied. We will present this in the context of open source frameworks such as Apache Flume, Kafka, among others that can be used to build related solutions. We will also present when and how to use multiple modes and frameworks together to form hybrid solutions that can address non-trivial ingest requirements with little or no extra overhead. Through this discussion we will drill-down into details of configuration and sizing for these frameworks to ensure optimal operations and utilization for long-running deployments.
Yahoo - Moving beyond running 100% of Apache Pig jobs on Apache TezDataWorks Summit
Last year at Yahoo, we spent great effort in scaling, stabilizing and making Pig on Tez production ready and by the end of the year retired running Pig jobs on Mapreduce. This talk will detail the performance and resource utilization improvements Yahoo achieved after migrating all Pig jobs to run on Tez.
After successful migration and the improved performance we shifted our focus to addressing some of the bottlenecks we identified and new optimization ideas that we came up with to make it go even faster. We will go over the new features and work done in Tez to make that happen like custom YARN ShuffleHandler, reworking DAG scheduling order, serialization changes, etc.
We will also cover exciting new features that were added to Pig for performance such as bloom join and byte code generation. A distributed bloom join that can create multiple bloom filters in parallel was straightforward to implement with the flexibility of Tez DAGs. It vastly improved performance and reduced disk and network utilization for our large joins. Byte code generation for projection and filtering of records is another big feature that we are targeting for Pig 0.17 which will speed up processing by reducing the virtual function calls.

A New “Sparkitecture” for Modernizing your Data Warehouse: Spark Summit East ...Spark Summit
Legacy enterprise data warehouse (EDW) architecture, geared toward day-to-day workloads associated with operational querying, reporting, and analytics, are often ill-equipped to handle the volume of data, traffic, and varied data types associated with a modern, ad-hoc analytics platform. Faced with challenges of increasing pipeline speed, aggregation, and visualization in a simplified, self-service fashion, organizations are increasingly turning to some combination of Spark, Hadoop, Kafka, and proven analytical databases like Vertica as key enabling technologies to optimize their EDW architecture. Join us to learn how successful organizations have developed real-time streaming solutions with these technologies for range of use cases, including IOT predictive maintenance.
Today enterprises desire to move more and more of their data lakes to the cloud to help them execute faster, increase productivity, drive innovation while leveraging the scale and flexibility of the cloud. However, such gains come with risks and challenges in the areas of data security, privacy, and governance. In this talk we cover how enterprises can overcome governance and security obstacles to leverage these new advances that the cloud can provide to ease the management of their data lakes in the cloud. We will also show how the enterprise can have consistent governance and security controls in the cloud for their ephemeral analytic workloads in a multi-cluster cloud environment without sacrificing any of the data security and privacy/compliance needs that their business context demands. Additionally, we will outline some use cases and patterns as well as best practices to rationally manage such a multi-cluster data lake infrastructure in the cloud.

In Search of Database Nirvana: Challenges of Delivering HTAPHBaseCon
Rohit Jain (Esgyn)
Customers are looking for one database engine to address all their varied needs--from transactional to analytical workloads--against structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data (Gartner’s term Hybrid Transactional/Analytical Processing, or HTAP, perhaps comes closest to describing this nirvana.) But can it be achieved? The motivation of this talk is to establish a framework for assessing the maturity and capabilities of query engines on Apache Hadoop ecosystem storage engines such as HBase in meeting these diverse needs.
Big Data Day LA 2015 - NoSQL: Doing it wrong before getting it right by Lawre...Data Con LA
The team at Fandango heartily embraced NoSQL, using Couchbase to power a key media publishing system. The initial implementation was fraught with integration issues and high latency, and required a major effort to successfully refactor. My talk will outline the key organizational and architectural decisions that created deep systemic problems, and the steps taken to re-architect the system to achieve a high level of performance at scale.
Streaming Data Lakes using Kafka Connect + Apache Hudi | Vinoth Chandar, Apac...HostedbyConfluent
Apache Hudi is a data lake platform, that provides streaming primitives (upserts/deletes/change streams) on top of data lake storage. Hudi powers very large data lakes at Uber, Robinhood and other companies, while being pre-installed on four major cloud platforms.
Hudi supports exactly-once, near real-time data ingestion from Apache Kafka to cloud storage, which is typically used in-place of a S3/HDFS sink connector to gain transactions and mutability. While this approach is scalable and battle-tested, it can only ingest data in mini batches, leading to lower data freshness. In this talk, we introduce a Kafka Connect Sink Connector for Apache Hudi, which writes data straight into Hudi's log format, making the data immediately queryable, while Hudi's table services like indexing, compaction, clustering work behind the scenes, to further re-organize for better query performance.
HBase Global Indexing to support large-scale data ingestion at UberDataWorks Summit
Data serves as the platform for decision-making at Uber. To facilitate data driven decisions, many datasets at Uber are ingested in a Hadoop Data Lake and exposed to querying via Hive. Analytical queries joining various datasets are run to better understand business data at Uber.
Data ingestion, at its most basic form, is about organizing data to balance efficient reading and writing of newer data. Data organization for efficient reading involves factoring in query patterns to partition data to ensure read amplification is low. Data organization for efficient writing involves factoring the nature of input data - whether it is append only or updatable.
At Uber we ingest terabytes of many critical tables such as trips that are updatable. These tables are fundamental part of Uber's data-driven solutions, and act as the source-of-truth for all the analytical use-cases across the entire company. Datasets such as trips constantly receive updates to the data apart from inserts. To ingest such datasets we need a critical component that is responsible for bookkeeping information of the data layout, and annotates each incoming change with the location in HDFS where this data should be written. This component is called as Global Indexing. Without this component, all records get treated as inserts and get re-written to HDFS instead of being updated. This leads to duplication of data, breaking data correctness and user queries. This component is key to scaling our jobs where we are now handling greater than 500 billion writes a day in our current ingestion systems. This component will need to have strong consistency and provide large throughputs for index writes and reads.
At Uber, we have chosen HBase to be the backing store for the Global Indexing component and is a critical component in allowing us to scaling our jobs where we are now handling greater than 500 billion writes a day in our current ingestion systems. In this talk, we will discuss data@Uber and expound more on why we built the global index using Apache Hbase and how this helps to scale out our cluster usage. We’ll give details on why we chose HBase over other storage systems, how and why we came up with a creative solution to automatically load Hfiles directly to the backend circumventing the normal write path when bootstrapping our ingestion tables to avoid QPS constraints, as well as other learnings we had bringing this system up in production at the scale of data that Uber encounters daily.
Learnings Using Spark Streaming and DataFrames for Walmart Search: Spark Summ...Spark Summit
In this presentation, we are going to talk about the state of the art infrastructure we have established at Walmart Labs for the Search product using Spark Streaming and DataFrames. First, we have been able to successfully use multiple micro batch spark streaming pipelines to update and process information like product availability, pick up today etc. along with updating our product catalog information in our search index to up to 10,000 kafka events per sec in near real-time. Earlier, all the product catalog changes in the index had a 24 hour delay, using Spark Streaming we have made it possible to see these changes in near real-time. This addition has provided a great boost to the business by giving the end-costumers instant access to features likes availability of a product, store pick up, etc.
Second, we have built a scalable anomaly detection framework purely using Spark Data Frames that is being used by our data pipelines to detect abnormality in search data. Anomaly detection is an important problem not only in the search domain but also many domains such as performance monitoring, fraud detection, etc. During this, we realized that not only are Spark DataFrames able to process information faster but also are more flexible to work with. One could write hive like queries, pig like code, UDFs, UDAFs, python like code etc. all at the same place very easily and can build DataFrame template which can be used and reused by multiple teams effectively. We believe that if implemented correctly Spark Data Frames can potentially replace hive/pig in big data space and have the potential of becoming unified data language.
We conclude that Spark Streaming and Data Frames are the key to processing extremely large streams of data in real-time with ease of use.
Building a data lake is a daunting task. The promise of a virtual data lake is to provide the advantages of a data lake without consolidating all data into a single repository. With Apache Arrow and Dremio, companies can, for the first time, build virtual data lakes that provide full access to data no matter where it is stored and no matter what size it is.
Storage Requirements and Options for Running Spark on KubernetesDataWorks Summit
In a world of serverless computing users tend to be frugal when it comes to expenditure on compute, storage and other resources. Paying for the same when they aren’t in use becomes a significant factor. Offering Spark as service on cloud presents very unique challenges. Running Spark on Kubernetes presents a lot of challenges especially around storage and persistence. Spark workloads have very unique requirements of Storage for intermediate data, long time persistence, Share file system and requirements become very tight when it same need to be offered as a service for enterprise to mange GDPR and other compliance like ISO 27001 and HIPAA certifications.
This talk covers challenges involved in providing Serverless Spark Clusters share the specific issues one can encounter when running large Kubernetes clusters in production especially covering the scenarios related to persistence.
This talk will help people using Kubernetes or docker runtime in production and help them understand various storage options available and which is more suitable for running Spark workloads on Kubernetes and what more can be done
Presto: Optimizing Performance of SQL-on-Anything EngineDataWorks Summit
Presto, an open source distributed SQL engine, is widely recognized for its low-latency queries, high concurrency, and native ability to query multiple data sources. Proven at scale in a variety of use cases at Airbnb, Bloomberg, Comcast, Facebook, FINRA, LinkedIn, Lyft, Netflix, Twitter, and Uber, in the last few years Presto experienced an unprecedented growth in popularity in both on-premises and cloud deployments over Object Stores, HDFS, NoSQL and RDBMS data stores.
With the ever-growing list of connectors to new data sources such as Azure Blob Storage, Elasticsearch, Netflix Iceberg, Apache Kudu, and Apache Pulsar, recently introduced Cost-Based Optimizer in Presto must account for heterogeneous inputs with differing and often incomplete data statistics. This talk will explore this topic in detail as well as discuss best use cases for Presto across several industries. In addition, we will present recent Presto advancements such as Geospatial analytics at scale and the project roadmap going forward.
Big Data Meets NVM: Accelerating Big Data Processing with Non-Volatile Memory...DataWorks Summit
Advanced Big Data Processing frameworks have been proposed to harness the fast data transmission capability of Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) over high-speed networks such as InfiniBand, RoCEv1, RoCEv2, iWARP, and OmniPath. However, with the introduction of the Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) and NVM express (NVMe) based SSD, these designs along with the default Big Data processing models need to be re-assessed to discover the possibilities of further enhanced performance. In this talk, we will present, NRCIO, a high-performance communication runtime for non-volatile memory over modern network interconnects that can be leveraged by existing Big Data processing middleware. We will show the performance of non-volatile memory-aware RDMA communication protocols using our proposed runtime and demonstrate its benefits by incorporating it into a high-performance in-memory key-value store, Apache Hadoop, Tez, Spark, and TensorFlow. Evaluation results illustrate that NRCIO can achieve up to 3.65x performance improvement for representative Big Data processing workloads on modern data centers.

From determining the most convenient rider pickup points to predicting the fastest routes, Uber aims to use data-driven analytics to create seamless trip experiences. Within engineering, analytics inform decision-making processes across the board.
One of the distinct challenges for Uber is analyzing geospatial big data. City locations, trips, and event information, for instance, provide insights that can improve business decisions and better serve users. Geospatial data analysis is particularly challenging, especially in a big data scenario, such as computing how many rides start at a transit location, how many drivers are crossing state lines, and so on. For these analytical requests, we must achieve efficiency, usability, and scalability in order to meet user needs and business requirements.
To accomplish this, we use Hadoop, Hive, and Presto in our production environment to process the big data powering our interactive SQL engine. In this talk, we discuss our engineering effort to optimize geospatial queries in the whole Hadoop stack.

Spark as part of a Hybrid RDBMS Architecture-John Leach Cofounder Splice MachineData Con LA
In this talk, we will discuss how we use Spark as part of a hybrid RDBMS architecture that includes Hadoop and HBase. The optimizer evaluates each query and sends OLTP traffic (including CRUD queries) to HBase and OLAP traffic to Spark. We will focus on the challenges of handling the tradeoffs inherent in an integrated architecture that simultaneously handles real-time and batch traffic. Lessons learned include: - Embedding Spark into a RDBMS - Running Spark on Yarn and isolating OLTP traffic from OLAP traffic - Accelerating the generation of Spark RDDs from HBase - Customizing the Spark UI The lessons learned can also be applied to other hybrid systems, such as Lambda architectures.

Powering Real-Time Big Data Analytics with a Next-Gen GPU DatabaseKinetica
Freed from the constraints of storage, network and memory, many big data analytics systems now are routinely revealing themselves to be compute bound. To compensate, big data analytic systems often result in wide horizontal sprawl (300-node Spark or NoSQL clusters are not unusual!)— to bring in enough compute for the task at hand. High system complexity and crushing operational costs often result. As the world shifts from physical to virtual assets and methods of engagement, there is an increasing need for systems of intelligence to live alongside the more traditional systems of record and systems of analysis. New approaches to data processing are required to support the real-time processing of data required to drive these systems of intelligence.
Join 451 Research and Kinetica to learn:
•An overview of the business and technical trends driving widespread interest in real-time analytics
•Why systems of analysis need to be transformed and augmented with systems of intelligence bringing new approaches to data processing
•How a new class of solution—a GPU-accelerated, scale out, in-memory database–can bring you orders of magnitude more compute power, significantly smaller hardware footprint, and unrivaled analytic capabilities.
•Hear how other companies in a variety of industries, such as financial services, entertainment, pharmaceutical, and oil and gas, benefit from augmenting their legacy systems with a modern analytics database.

Floating on a RAFT: HBase Durability with Apache RatisDataWorks Summit
In a world with a myriad of distributed storage systems to choose from, the majority of Apache HBase clusters still rely on Apache HDFS. Theoretically, any distributed file system could be used by HBase. One major reason HDFS is predominantly used are the specific durability requirements of HBase's write-ahead log (WAL) and HDFS providing that guarantee correctly. However, HBase's use of HDFS for WALs can be replaced with sufficient effort.
This talk will cover the design of a "Log Service" which can be embedded inside of HBase that provides a sufficient level of durability that HBase requires for WALs. Apache Ratis (incubating) is a library-implementation of the RAFT consensus protocol in Java and is used to build this Log Service. We will cover the design choices of the Ratis Log Service, comparing and contrasting it to other log-based systems that exist today. Next, we'll cover how the Log Service "fits" into HBase and the necessary changes to HBase which enable this. Finally, we'll discuss how the Log Service can simplify the operational burden of HBase.
Tracking Crime as It Occurs with Apache Phoenix, Apache HBase and Apache NiFiDataWorks Summit
Utilizing Apache NiFi we read various open data REST APIs and camera feeds to ingest crime and related data real-time streaming it into HBase and Phoenix tables. HBase makes an excellent storage option for our real-time time series data sources. We can immediately query our data utilizing Apache Zeppelin against Phoenix tables as well as Hive external tables to HBase.
Apache Phoenix tables also make a great option since we can easily put microservices on top of them for application usage. I have an example Spring Boot application that reads from our Philadelphia crime table for front-end web applications as well as RESTful APIs.
Apache NiFi makes it easy to push records with schemas to HBase and insert into Phoenix SQL tables.

HBase Tales From the Trenches - Short stories about most common HBase operati...DataWorks Summit
Whilst HBase is the most logical answer for use cases requiring random, realtime read/write access to Big Data, it may not be so trivial to design applications that make most of its use, neither the most simple to operate. As it depends/integrates with other components from Hadoop ecosystem (Zookeeper, HDFS, Spark, Hive, etc) or external systems ( Kerberos, LDAP), and its distributed nature requires a "Swiss clockwork" infrastructure, many variables are to be considered when observing anomalies or even outages. Adding to the equation there's also the fact that HBase is still an evolving product, with different release versions being used currently, some of those can carry genuine software bugs. On this presentation, we'll go through the most common HBase issues faced by different organisations, describing identified cause and resolution action over my last 5 years supporting HBase to our heterogeneous customer base.
Optimizing Geospatial Operations with Server-side Programming in HBase and Ac...DataWorks Summit
LocationTech GeoMesa enables spatial and spatiotemporal indexing and queries for HBase and Accumulo. In this talk, after an overview of GeoMesa’s capabilities in the Cloudera ecosystem, we will dive into how GeoMesa leverages Accumulo’s Iterator interface and HBase’s Filter and Coprocessor interfaces. The goal will be to discuss both what spatial operations can be pushed down into the distributed database and also how the GeoMesa codebase is organized to allow for consistent use across the two database systems.
OCLC has been using HBase since 2012 to enable single-search-box access to over a billion items from your library and the world’s library collection. This talk will provide an overview of how HBase is structured to provide this information and some of the challenges they have encountered to scale to support the world catalog and how they have overcome them.
Many individuals/organizations have a desire to utilize NoSQL technology, but often lack an understanding of how the underlying functional bits can be utilized to enable their use case. This situation can result in drastic increases in the desire to put the SQL back in NoSQL.
Since the initial commit, Apache Accumulo has provided a number of examples to help jumpstart comprehension of how some of these bits function as well as potentially help tease out an understanding of how they might be applied to a NoSQL friendly use case. One very relatable example demonstrates how Accumulo could be used to emulate a filesystem (dirlist).
In this session we will walk through the dirlist implementation. Attendees should come away with an understanding of the supporting table designs, a simple text search supporting a single wildcard (on file/directory names), and how the dirlist elements work together to accomplish its feature set. Attendees should (hopefully) also come away with a justification for sometimes keeping the SQL out of NoSQL.
Scaling Cloud-Scale Translytics Workloads with Omid and PhoenixDataWorks Summit
Recently, Apache Phoenix has been integrated with Apache (incubator) Omid transaction processing service, to provide ultra-high system throughput with ultra-low latency overhead. Phoenix has been shown to scale beyond 0.5M transactions per second with sub-5ms latency for short transactions on industry-standard hardware. On the other hand, Omid has been extended to support secondary indexes, multi-snapshot SQL queries, and massive-write transactions.
These innovative features make Phoenix an excellent choice for translytics applications, which allow converged transaction processing and analytics. We share the story of building the next-gen data tier for advertising platforms at Verizon Media that exploits Phoenix and Omid to support multi-feed real-time ingestion and AI pipelines in one place, and discuss the lessons learned.
Building the High Speed Cybersecurity Data Pipeline Using Apache NiFiDataWorks Summit
Cybersecurity requires an organization to collect data, analyze it, and alert on cyber anomalies in near real-time. This is a challenging endeavor when considering the variety of data sources which need to be collected and analyzed. Everything from application logs, network events, authentications systems, IOT devices, business events, cloud service logs, and more need to be taken into consideration. In addition, multiple data formats need to be transformed and conformed to be understood by both humans and ML/AI algorithms.
To solve this problem, the Aetna Global Security team developed the Unified Data Platform based on Apache NiFi, which allows them to remain agile and adapt to new security threats and the onboarding of new technologies in the Aetna environment. The platform currently has over 60 different data flows with 95% doing real-time ETL and handles over 20 billion events per day. In this session learn from Aetna’s experience building an edge to AI high-speed data pipeline with Apache NiFi.
In the healthcare sector, data security, governance, and quality are crucial for maintaining patient privacy and ensuring the highest standards of care. At Florida Blue, the leading health insurer of Florida serving over five million members, there is a multifaceted network of care providers, business users, sales agents, and other divisions relying on the same datasets to derive critical information for multiple applications across the enterprise. However, maintaining consistent data governance and security for protected health information and other extended data attributes has always been a complex challenge that did not easily accommodate the wide range of needs for Florida Blue’s many business units. Using Apache Ranger, we developed a federated Identity & Access Management (IAM) approach that allows each tenant to have their own IAM mechanism. All user groups and roles are propagated across the federation in order to determine users’ data entitlement and access authorization; this applies to all stages of the system, from the broadest tenant levels down to specific data rows and columns. We also enabled audit attributes to ensure data quality by documenting data sources, reasons for data collection, date and time of data collection, and more. In this discussion, we will outline our implementation approach, review the results, and highlight our “lessons learned.”
Introducing MlFlow: An Open Source Platform for the Machine Learning Lifecycl...DataWorks Summit
Specialized tools for machine learning development and model governance are becoming essential. MlFlow is an open source platform for managing the machine learning lifecycle. Just by adding a few lines of code in the function or script that trains their model, data scientists can log parameters, metrics, artifacts (plots, miscellaneous files, etc.) and a deployable packaging of the ML model. Every time that function or script is run, the results will be logged automatically as a byproduct of those lines of code being added, even if the party doing the training run makes no special effort to record the results. MLflow application programming interfaces (APIs) are available for the Python, R and Java programming languages, and MLflow sports a language-agnostic REST API as well. Over a relatively short time period, MLflow has garnered more than 3,300 stars on GitHub , almost 500,000 monthly downloads and 80 contributors from more than 40 companies. Most significantly, more than 200 companies are now using MLflow. We will demo MlFlow Tracking , Project and Model components with Azure Machine Learning (AML) Services and show you how easy it is to get started with MlFlow on-prem or in the cloud.
Extending Twitter's Data Platform to Google CloudDataWorks Summit
Twitter's Data Platform is built using multiple complex open source and in house projects to support Data Analytics on hundreds of petabytes of data. Our platform support storage, compute, data ingestion, discovery and management and various tools and libraries to help users for both batch and realtime analytics. Our DataPlatform operates on multiple clusters across different data centers to help thousands of users discover valuable insights. As we were scaling our Data Platform to multiple clusters, we also evaluated various cloud vendors to support use cases outside of our data centers. In this talk we share our architecture and how we extend our data platform to use cloud as another datacenter. We walk through our evaluation process, challenges we faced supporting data analytics at Twitter scale on cloud and present our current solution. Extending Twitter's Data platform to cloud was complex task which we deep dive in this presentation.
Event-Driven Messaging and Actions using Apache Flink and Apache NiFiDataWorks Summit
At Comcast, our team has been architecting a customer experience platform which is able to react to near-real-time events and interactions and deliver appropriate and timely communications to customers. By combining the low latency capabilities of Apache Flink and the dataflow capabilities of Apache NiFi we are able to process events at high volume to trigger, enrich, filter, and act/communicate to enhance customer experiences. Apache Flink and Apache NiFi complement each other with their strengths in event streaming and correlation, state management, command-and-control, parallelism, development methodology, and interoperability with surrounding technologies. We will trace our journey from starting with Apache NiFi over three years ago and our more recent introduction of Apache Flink into our platform stack to handle more complex scenarios. In this presentation we will compare and contrast which business and technical use cases are best suited to which platform and explore different ways to integrate the two platforms into a single solution.
Securing Data in Hybrid on-premise and Cloud Environments using Apache RangerDataWorks Summit
Companies are increasingly moving to the cloud to store and process data. One of the challenges companies have is in securing data across hybrid environments with easy way to centrally manage policies. In this session, we will talk through how companies can use Apache Ranger to protect access to data both in on-premise as well as in cloud environments. We will go into details into the challenges of hybrid environment and how Ranger can solve it. We will also talk through how companies can further enhance the security by leveraging Ranger to anonymize or tokenize data while moving into the cloud and de-anonymize dynamically using Apache Hive, Apache Spark or when accessing data from cloud storage systems. We will also deep dive into the Ranger’s integration with AWS S3, AWS Redshift and other cloud native systems. We will wrap it up with an end to end demo showing how policies can be created in Ranger and used to manage access to data in different systems, anonymize or de-anonymize data and track where data is flowing.
Background: Some early applications of Computer Vision in Retail arose from e-commerce use cases - but increasingly, it is being used in physical stores in a variety of new and exciting ways, such as:
● Optimizing merchandising execution, in-stocks and sell-thru
● Enhancing operational efficiencies, enable real-time customer engagement
● Enhancing loss prevention capabilities, response time
● Creating frictionless experiences for shoppers
Abstract: This talk will cover the use of Computer Vision in Retail, the implications to the broader Consumer Goods industry and share business drivers, use cases and benefits that are unfolding as an integral component in the remaking of an age-old industry.
We will also take a ‘peek under the hood’ of Computer Vision and Deep Learning, sharing technology design principles and skill set profiles to consider before starting your CV journey.
Deep learning has matured considerably in the past few years to produce human or superhuman abilities in a variety of computer vision paradigms.

We will cover the basics of object detection, then move into the advanced processing of images describing the possible ways that a retail store of the near future could operate. Identifying various storefront situations by having a deep learning system attached to a camera stream. Such things as; identifying item stocks on shelves, a shelf in need of organization, or perhaps a wandering customer in need of assistance.
We will also cover how to use a computer vision system to automatically track customer purchases to enable a streamlined checkout process, and how deep learning can power plausible wardrobe suggestions based on what a customer is currently wearing or purchasing.
Finally, we will cover the various technologies that are powering these applications today. Deep learning tools for research and development. Production tools to distribute that intelligence to an entire inventory of all the cameras situation around a retail location. Tools for exploring and understanding the new data streams produced by the computer vision systems.
By the end of this talk, attendees should understand the impact Computer Vision and Deep Learning are having in the Consumer Goods industry, key use cases, techniques and key considerations leaders are exploring and implementing today.
Big Data Genomics: Clustering Billions of DNA Sequences with Apache SparkDataWorks Summit
Whole genome shotgun based next generation transcriptomics and metagenomics studies often generate 100 to 1000 gigabytes (GB) sequence data derived from tens of thousands of different genes or microbial species. De novo assembling these data requires an ideal solution that both scales with data size and optimizes for individual gene or genomes. Here we developed an Apache Spark-based scalable sequence clustering application, SparkReadClust (SpaRC), that partitions the reads based on their molecule of origin to enable downstream assembly optimization. SpaRC produces high clustering performance on transcriptomics and metagenomics test datasets from both short read and long read sequencing technologies. It achieved a near linear scalability with respect to input data size and number of compute nodes. SpaRC can run on different cloud computing environments without modifications while delivering similar performance. In summary, our results suggest SpaRC provides a scalable solution for clustering billions of reads from the next-generation sequencing experiments, and Apache Spark represents a cost-effective solution with rapid development/deployment cycles for similar big data genomics problems.
Transforming and Scaling Large Scale Data Analytics: Moving to a Cloud-based ...DataWorks Summit
The Census Bureau is the U.S. government's largest statistical agency with a mission to provide current facts and figures about America's people, places and economy. The Bureau operates a large number of surveys to collect this data, the most well known being the decennial population census. Data is being collected in increasing volumes and the analytics solutions must be able to scale to meet the ever increasing needs while maintaining the confidentiality of the data. Past data analytics have occurred in processing silos inhibiting the sharing of information and common reference data is replicated across multiple system. The use of the Hortonworks Data Platform, Hortonworks Data Flow and other open-source technologies is enabling the creation of a cloud-based enterprise data lake and analytics platform. Cloud object stores are used to provide scalable data storage and cloud compute supports permanent and transient clusters. Data governance tools are used to track the data lineage and to provide access controls to sensitive data.
Applying Noisy Knowledge Graphs to Real ProblemsDataWorks Summit
Knowledge graphs (KGs) have recently emerged as a powerful way to represent knowledge in multiple communities, including data mining, natural language processing and machine learning. Large-scale KGs like Wikidata and DBpedia are openly available, while in industry, the Google Knowledge Graph is a good example of proprietary knowledge that continues to fuel impressive advances in Google's semantic search capabilities. Yet, both crowdsourced and automatically constructed KGs suffer from noise, both during KG construction and during search and inference. In this talk, I will discuss how to build and use such knowledge graphs effectively, despite the noise and sparsity of labeled data, to solve real-world social problems such as providing insights in disaster situations, and helping law enforcement fight human trafficking. I will conclude by providing insight on the lessons learned, and the applicability of research techniques to industrial problems. The talk will be designed to appeal both to business and technical leaders.
Open Source, Open Data: Driving Innovation in Smart CitiesDataWorks Summit
A city is a system of systems with independent objectives and governance for transportation, energy, healthcare, safety, security, and infrastructure. A smart city relies on data to be the connectivity between independent functions, and open data to be the building blocks for citizen-centered design, inclusion, and sustainability. Big Data is not about size – it is about finding new life-changing and transformational opportunities using data.
From Smart Mobility and Smart Energy to improved Public Health, Safety, & Governance – this session will discuss how cities are delivering better citizen services leveraging open source technology with a consistent governance and security framework that spans the data center and the public clouds.
Data integration is the key to ensuring that a city’s attempts to become an intelligent system of systems doesn’t result in a system of silos. A single view requires the capability to integrate transactional data from traditional data stores with person generated data, unstructured data, and machine sensor (IoT) data. The key to managing such a range of data is a capability that allows for both scaling analytic workloads and the preservation of detailed data with unexplored value, as both are vital to future growth potential.
Key Takeaways:
Understand the common use cases that tier 1, tier 2, and emerging cities are undertaking to deliver tactical results and progress towards policy objectives.
Understand the role of a shared catalog, unified security and consistent governance in building a secure, trusted, and connected capability.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

DevOps and Testing slides at DASA ConnectKari Kakkonen
My and Rik Marselis slides at 30.5.2024 DASA Connect conference. We discuss about what is testing, then what is agile testing and finally what is Testing in DevOps. Finally we had lovely workshop with the participants trying to find out different ways to think about quality and testing in different parts of the DevOps infinity loop.
"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
