Data Visualization Best Practices by Rebeca Pop
Abstract: Do you want to create more effective graphs? Do you want to learn how to better incorporate data storytelling into your reports and presentations? Visualizing data can help communicate complex information simply and with clarity - a skill that is vital for anyone working with data. Join this talk to learn about data storytelling, how to declutter your graphs, and how to think outside the box when choosing a chart.

Presto: SQL on Anything & Anywhere by Cole Fraser
Abstract: 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, Comcast, GrubHub, 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.

Delta Lake, a storage layer originally invented by Databricks and recently open sourced, brings ACID capabilities to big datasets held in Object Storage. While initially designed for Spark, Delta Lake now supports multiple query compute engines. In particular, Starburst developed a native integration for Presto that leverages Delta-specific performance optimizations.

In this talk we show Starburst Presto deployed on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) serves as a fast SQL query engine over data in ADLS. Furthermore, Presto enables query-time correlations between IoT data in Delta Lake, customer data in SQL Server, and web log data in Elasticsearch.
