10:35 Ballroom A Session Platform Engineering Beyond Durability: Enhancing Database Resilience and Reducing the Entropy Using Write-Ahead Logging at Netflix Prudhviraj Karumanchi, Vidhya Arvind In modern database systems, durability guarantees are crucial but often insufficient in scenarios involving extended system outages or data corruption. 11:45 Pacific DEKJ Session Architecture OpenSearch Cluster Topologies for Cost-Saving Autoscaling Amitai Stern Engineering Manager @Logz.io, Managing Observability Data Storage of Petabyte Scale, OpenSearch Leadership Committee Member and Contributor 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? 13:35 Ballroom A Session Stream All the Things — Patterns of Effective Data Stream Processing Adi Polak Director, Advocacy and Developer Experience Engineering @Confluent, Author of "Scaling Machine Learning with Spark" and "High Performance Spark 2nd Edition" 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. 14:45 Ballroom A Session Stream and Batch Processing Convergence in Apache Flink Jiangjie (Becket) Qin Principal Staff Software Engineer @LinkedIn, Data Infra Engineer, PMC Member of Apache Kafka & Apache Flink, Previously @Alibaba and @IBM 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. 15:55 Ballroom A Session Data Pipelines Efficient Incremental Processing with Netflix Maestro and Apache Iceberg Jun He Staff Software Engineer @Netflix, Managing and Automating Large-Scale Data/ML Workflows, Previously @Airbnb and @Hulu 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. 17:05 Seacliff D Unconference Unconference: Shift-Left Data Architecture
