Cost-Efficient Real-Time Analytics on AWS: Storage-Compute Separation with Apache Doris
Real-time analytics have a reputation for being expensive — you pay for fast storage you
barely use, and for compute that sits idle overnight. This session walks through VeloDB
/ Apache Doris's storage-compute separation architecture on AWS, showing how to
push warm data down to S3 while keeping sub-second query latency on the data that
matters. We'll round off with a live demo querying billions of rows against S3-backed storage, soattendees can see the latency-vs-cost trade-off in action rather than on a slide.- Mystery Speaker
Generative AI Cost Optimisation
Cost Optimisation is essential but with all the anecdotal stories of massive token budget blowouts, staying on top of Generative AI best-practices is essential to avoiding these scenarios.This month's menu will include:
- Pizzas
- Beer: Nastro Azzurro
- Wine: Big and red 🤤
So come join us at 5:30 for a 6pm SHARP start, followed by beer, wine, pizza and friendly networking after our talks :-)
