Data Lake, Real-time Analytics, or Both? Exploring Presto and ClickHouse

22nd March 2023 @ 10:00 am 11:00 am PDT

Presented by Rohan Pednekar and Robert Hodges

Big data these days means big, fast, or both, and there are a lot of technologies that promise to fulfill various pieces of that big data architecture.

Join us for this webinar we’re delivering in partnership with Ahana where we’ll explore open-source big data solutions. We’ll contrast Presto, the leading SQL Query engine for data lakes, with ClickHouse, the DBMS champ for real-time analytics. After framing the problem with relevant use cases we’ll dig into solutions using Presto and ClickHouse.

You can expect a deep dive into the plumbing that exposes key trade-offs between approaches. Join us for an enlightening discussion filled with practical advice for your next big data project!
