Nishith Agarwal (Uber), Balaji Varadarajan (Uber), Vinoth Chandar (Apache Hudi)
5:25pm–6:05pm Wednesday, 09/12/2018
Secondary topics:  Data Integration and Data Pipelines

Who is this presentation for?

  • Data engineers and architects

Prerequisite knowledge

  • A basic understanding of the big data ecosystem (Hadoop, Spark, etc.)

What you'll learn

  • Explore Hudi, an open source analytical storage system created at Uber to manage petabytes of data on HDFS-like distributed storage
  • Understand the trade-offs in managing analytical storage across different use cases

Description

Hudi (formerly Hoodie) is an open source analytical storage system created at Uber to manage petabytes of data on HDFS-like distributed storage. Hudi enables near-real-time ingestion and provides different views of the data—a read-optimized view for batch analytics, a real-time view for driving dashboards, and an incremental view for powering data pipelines. Hudi also effectively manages files on underlying storage to maximize operational health and reliability.

Nishith Agarwal, Balaji Varadarajan, and Vinoth Chandar outline the design and architecture of merge-on-read storage and explain how it lowers data latency across the board while simultaneously achieving orders of magnitude of efficiency over traditional batch ingestion. They make the case for near-real-time dashboarding on top of Hudi datasets, which can be cheaper than pure streaming architectures, and detail how Uber leverages Hudi for use cases around ingestion, incremental ETL, and GDPR compliance.
