Likelihood to Recommend Like the name says, it is good for streaming data and analyzing. It is great to look at tuples at a fast rate, filtering, calling other sources to enrich data, can call APIs, etc. Could do better for ingest use cases, can do better with guaranteed delivery, etc.
Read full review Presto is for interactive simple queries, where
Hive is for reliable processing. If you have a fact-dim join, presto is great..however for fact-fact joins presto is not the solution.. Presto is a great replacement for proprietary technology like
Vertica Read full review Pros IBM Streams is well suited for providing wire-speed real-time end-to-end processing with sub-millisecond latency. Streams is amazingly computationally efficient. In other words, you can typically do much more processing with a given amount of hardware than other technologies. In a recent linear-road benchmark Streams based application was able to provide greater capability than the Hadoop-based implementation using 10x less hardware. So even when latency isn't critical, using Streams might still make sense for reducing operational cost. Streams comes out of the box with a large and comprehensive set of tested and optimized toolkits. Leveraging these toolkits not only reduces the development time and cost but also helps reduce project risk by eliminating the need for custom code which likely has not seen as much time in test or production. In addition to the out of the box toolkits, there is an active developer community contributing additional specialized packages. Read full review Linking, embedding links and adding images is easy enough. Once you have become familiar with the interface, Presto becomes very quick & easy to use (but, you have to practice & repeat to know what you are doing - it is not as intuitive as one would hope). Organizing & design is fairly simple with click & drag parameters. Read full review Cons Documentation could be more extensive, with more examples, although overall this is not too bad compared to some of the alternative solutions. Seems expensive to use in production. Read full review Presto was not designed for large fact fact joins. This is by design as presto does not leverage disk and used memory for processing which in turn makes it fast.. However, this is a tradeoff..in an ideal world, people would like to use one system for all their use cases, and presto should get exhaustive by solving this problem. Resource allocation is not similar to YARN and presto has a priority queue based query resource allocation..so a query that takes long takes longer...this might be alleviated by giving some more control back to the user to define priority/override. UDF Support is not available in presto. You will have to write your own functions..while this is good for performance, it comes at a huge overhead of building exclusively for presto and not being interoperable with other systems like Hive, SparkSQL etc. Read full review Alternatives Considered There are well explained tutorials to get the user started. If you are looking for business application ideas, the user community offers a diversity of applications. It is very easy to launch applications on the cloud and can integrate with other analytic tools available on Watson Studio. It takes away the burden of the technology so that users can focus on business innovations.
Read full review Presto is good for a templated design appeal. You cannot be too creative via this interface - but, the layout and options make the finalized visual product appealing to customers. The other design products I use are for different purposes and not really comparable to Presto.
Read full review Return on Investment Ability to do more with less Admins and data analyst can now focus on more thinking tasks No negative impacts yet Read full review Presto has helped scale Uber's interactive data needs. We have migrated a lot out of proprietary tech like Vertica. Presto has helped build data driven applications on its stack than maintain a separate online/offline stack. Presto has helped us build data exploration tools by leveraging it's power of interactive and is immensely valuable for data scientists. Read full review ScreenShots
