Description
Used by Facebook, Netflix, Airbnb, LinkedIn, Twitter, Uber, and others, Presto has become the ubiquitous open source software for SQL on anything. Presto was built from the ground up for fast interactive SQL analytics against disparate data sources ranging in size from GBs to PBs.
Join Matt Fuller to learn how to use Presto and explore use cases and best practices you can implement today. You’ll have the opportunity to join in on a hands-on exercise, but you can simply follow along if you prefer. Matt will provide an overview of Presto and its history, Presto architecture and technical concepts, getting started with Presto, migrating from Hive, administering Presto, security in Presto, query federation, Presto on cloud environments (including AWS Athena), advanced Presto concepts and tuning, and joining the Presto open source community.
