This document summarizes a tutorial on column-oriented database systems given at VLDB 2009. It discusses the evolution of column-oriented databases from early systems like DSM to current commercial systems. Key features of column-oriented databases include storing data by column rather than by row for improved read efficiency, better compression, and indexing capabilities. The tutorial outlines optimizations made possible by the columnar format like late materialization and vectorized processing. It also compares the performance of column and row storage using a telco data warehousing example.

What to Expect From Oracle database 19cMaria Colgan
The Oracle Database has recently switched to an annual release model. Oracle Database 19c is only the second release in this new model. So what can you expect from the latest version of the Oracle Database? This presentation explains how Oracle Database 19c is really 12.2.0.3 the terminal release of the 12.2 family and the new features you can find in this release.
Practical examples of using extended eventsDean Richards
Many presentations I have seen about SQL Server extended events focus on the mechanics of setting them up and querying the definitions back from the DMVs. While useful, I had always been missing the points about when and how to use extended events. What are they and why should you be using them? This presentation will show three real-world examples of using extended events. Each example will include demos on configuring the event and using the data and you will learn:
• Use extended events rather than queries against DMVs or tracing
• Collect query information
• Catch and examine deadlocks
• Collect actual plans

ORC files were originally introduced in Hive, but have now migrated to an independent Apache project. This has sped up the development of ORC and simplified integrating ORC into other projects, such as Hadoop, Spark, Presto, and Nifi. There are also many new tools that are built on top of ORC, such as Hive’s ACID transactions and LLAP, which provides incredibly fast reads for your hot data. LLAP also provides strong security guarantees that allow each user to only see the rows and columns that they have permission for.
This talk will discuss the details of the ORC and Parquet formats and what the relevant tradeoffs are. In particular, it will discuss how to format your data and the options to use to maximize your read performance. In particular, we’ll discuss when and how to use ORC’s schema evolution, bloom filters, and predicate push down. It will also show you how to use the tools to translate ORC files into human-readable formats, such as JSON, and display the rich metadata from the file including the type in the file and min, max, and count for each column.
Alfresco Web Scripts have become an important part of any Alfresco developer's tool kit and in this session we will take a deep dive into how Web Scripts can be used to provide public APIs for Alfresco extensions.

AWS Technology Evangelist Jinesh Varia discusses how to think about TCO of Storage and typical mistakes prospects make when trying to apples to apples comparison between cloud infrastructure service and on-premises storage
These are slides from a talk I gave on 19 April, 2012, at the Object Management Group's (OMG's) Real-Time Workshop in Paris, France. The purpose of the talk was to describe the ways in which building applications is different from building platforms and systems, especially with respect to patterns of communication. Specifically, the recognized messaging patterns make sense at an application layer but are often too limiting and brittle within the software infrastructure itself.
Consistent High IO Performance with Amazon Elastic Block StoreAmazon Web Services

The cloud reduces the barrier to entry for many small and medium size enterprises into analytics. Hadoop and related frameworks like Hive, Oozie, Sqoop are becoming tools of choice for deriving insights from data. However, these frameworks were designed for in-house datacenters which have different tradeoffs from a cloud environment and making them run well in the cloud presents some challenges. In this talk, we describe how we've extended Hadoop and Hive to exploit these new tradeoffs and offer them as part of the Qubole Data Service (QDS). We will also present use-cases that show how QDS is making it extremely easy for an end user to use these technologies in the cloud.

From HadoopDB to Hadapt: A Case Study of Transitioning a VLDB paper into Real...Daniel Abadi
VLDB 2013 Early Career Research Contribution Award Presentation
Abstract: Four years ago at VLDB 2009, a paper was published about a research prototype, called HadoopDB, that attempted to transform Hadoop --- a batch-oriented scalable system designed for processing unstructured data --- into a full-fledged parallel database system that can achieve real-time (interactive) query responses across both structured and unstructured data. In 2010 it was commercialized by Hadapt, a start-up that was formed to accelerate the engineering of the HadoopDB ideas, and to harden the codebase for deployment in real-world, mission-critical applications. In this talk I will give an overview of HadoopDB, and how it combines ideas from the Hadoop and database system communities. I will then describe how the project transitioned from a research prototype written by PhD students at Yale University into enterprise-ready software written by a team of experienced engineers. We will examine particular technical features that are required in enterprise Hadoop deployments, and technical challenges that we ran into while making HadoopDB robust enough to be deployed in the real world. The talk will conclude with an analysis of how starting a company impacts the tenure process, and some thoughts for graduate students and junior faculty considering a similar path.

Hadoop and Graph Data Management: Challenges and OpportunitiesDaniel Abadi
HadoopWorld 2011 Presentation by Daniel Abadi
As Hadoop rapidly becomes the universal standard for scalable data analysis and processing, it is increasingly important to understand its strengths and weaknesses for particular application scenarios in order to avoid inefficiency pitfalls. For example, Hadoop has great potential to perform scalable graph analysis if it is used correctly. Recent benchmarking has shown that simple implementations can be 1300 times less efficient than a more optimal Hadoop-centered implementation. In this talk, Daniel Abadi gives an overview of a recent research project at Yale University that investigates how to perform sub-graph pattern matching within a Hadoop-centered system that is three orders of magnitude faster than a more simple approach. This talk highlights how the cleaning, transforming, and parallel processing strengths of Hadoop are combined with storage optimized for graph data analysis. It then discusses further changes that are needed in the core Hadoop framework to take performance to the next level.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
