MapReduce and Distributed Compute

23. Confidential and Proprietary to Daugherty Business Solutions 26
Trino and Hadoop Hive
• Trino Optimizes Hive
• Hive gives an SQL-like interface to query data
stored in various databases and file systems that
integrate with Hadoop
• This enables MapReduce batch processing
• Trino behaves like Hive, but it does not need to
write intermediate operations to disk to achieve
fault tolerance
• Trino and the Trino Hive connector do not use the
Hive runtime. Trino is a high-performance
replacement for it and is suitable for running
interactive queries. It works directly with the files,
rather than using the Hive runtime and execution
engine.

24. Confidential and Proprietary to Daugherty Business Solutions
MapReduce and Distributed Compute
• Perhaps the most common use case
of Trino is to leverage the Hive
connector to read data from
distributed storage such as HDFS or
cloud storage.
• The Hive connector for Trino allows
you to connect to an HDFS object
storage cluster. It leverages the
metadata in HMS (Hive Metastore
Service) and queries and processes
the data stored in HDFS.
• Disk writes are not required to store
the intermediate process
• This reduces latency and
increases performance

Trino Connectors

26. Confidential and Proprietary to Daugherty Business Solutions
What is Trino?
Open-Source Model
Trino is open source and is overseen by the Trino Software
Foundation. This foundation is a community of contributors
that are constantly researching and upgrading the technology
and publishing their works. This facilitates many things for
the platform including continuous innovation and helps to
drive adoption of the platform

27. Confidential and Proprietary to Daugherty Business Solutions
Use Case Example
Web App
• Trino can exist within an application as its
data processing engine
• Nodes can be scaled to suit the requests and
workload of the client.
• Easily containerized and deployed into an
application

28. Confidential and Proprietary to Daugherty Business Solutions
Use Case Example
E-commerce website + Analytics
• Trino integration as central query engine to
touch all disparate data sources.
• Unified analytics: Trino can be used by
analysts to run queries without the
need for separate interfaces.
• The data is stored in multiple systems like
MySQL for transactional data, and MongoDB
for user profiles
• Apache Kafka or Cloud Pub/Sub is used as
the messaging bus to coordinate order
receipts, inventory updates, and shipments.

29. Confidential and Proprietary to Daugherty Business Solutions
Demo
• Deploying Trino via Docker
• Use SQL from the command line interface to query data

30. Confidential and Proprietary to Daugherty Business Solutions
Limitations
• Barebones SQL Engine
• You must manage logging and
monitoring
• You must manage security
• Any new connections must be created by
you
• You must scale nodes and provision
compute based on your needs. Not a fully
managed solution

31. Confidential and Proprietary to Daugherty Business Solutions
Starburst
• Provides a fully managed wrapper for Trino
• Abstracts a lot of the work required by DevOps
teams to provision the compute and load balancing
needed to manage a cluster
• Accessing Siloed Data at Scale fast
• Provides security for fine grain access control
• Follows role-based access control mechanisms
• Groups
• Roles
• Privileges
• Objects
• Compared to Hive and Impala, performance is 10x
faster

32. Confidential and Proprietary to Daugherty Business Solutions
What is Trino?
• Not a database
• Distributed Query
Processing Engine
• Open Source
• Supports Many Data
Types
• Semi-Structured
• Structured
• Blob
• ANSII SQL
• Enables More complex ETL
• Map Reduce
• Utilizes Manager
and Worker Nodes
for Massively
Parallel Processing
of Requests (MPP)
• Highly Scalable
