We are happy to invite you to the 2nd meetup of the series: Data-as-code. In the first meetup we hosted Taboola and Appsflyer to hear how they use Airflow and Kafka to deal with Big Data.
In this keynote lecture, we are honored to host Martin Traverso, Co-creator of Presto and CTO of Starburst, who will present Presto's roadmap and architecture.

17:00-17:15 - Intro to Data-as-Code

Data is becoming a first-class member in most of the projects today. Many tools and frameworks are built in order to collect accurate and repeatable data, especially required when building and tuning models.

17:15 - 17:45 - Presto Architecture and Roadmap

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 companies such as Comcast, FINRA, LinkedIn, Lyft, Netflix and Pinterest, in the last few years Presto experienced an unprecedented growth
in popularity in both on-premises and cloud deployments over Object Storage, HDFS, NoSQL and RDBMS data stores.

In this talk, we will give an overview of Presto and its architecture, and discuss recent advancements and project roadmap going forward.
