Stream and Batch Processing Convergence in Apache Flink

The idea of executing streaming and batch jobs with one engine has been there for a while. People always say batch is a special case of streaming. Conceptually, it is. However, practically, there are many gaps between streaming and batch processing in resource management, scheduling, failure recovery, aggregation, shuffling, etc. Apache Flink has gone through a long journey to address all these challenges, and becomes a leading convergence engine. This talk will introduce these challenges as well as the way Flink tackles them.

OpenSearch Cluster Topologies for Cost-Saving Autoscaling

Tuesday Nov 19 / 11:45AM PST

The indexing rates of many clusters follow some sort of fluctuating pattern - be it day/night, weekday/weekend, or any sort of duality when the cluster changes from being active to less active.  In these cases how does one scale the cluster?

Efficient Incremental Processing with Netflix Maestro and Apache Iceberg

Tuesday Nov 19 / 03:55PM PST

Incremental processing, an approach that processes only new or updated data in workflows, substantially reduces compute resource costs and execution time, leading to fewer potential failures and less need for manual intervention.

Stream All the Things — Patterns of Effective Data Stream Processing

Tuesday Nov 19 / 01:35PM PST

Data streaming is a really difficult problem. Despite 10+ years of attempting to simplify it, teams building real-time data pipelines can spend up to 80% of their time optimizing it or fixing downstream output by handling bad data at the lake.
