A glimpse at the summit


Our efforts around Trino Summit 2024 are ramping up and the event is creeping closer and closer. We are really looking forward to the two-day, free, virtual event in December about all things Trino.

While we are working hard to put together the SQL basecamps before Trino Summit training sessions and other community events, a number of your awesome peers from the Trino community submitted session proposals, and we are excited to share that glimpse on the agenda for Trino Summit 2024.

First batch of sessions #

Let’s see what already settled on the agenda.

Running Trino as exabyte-scale data warehouse #

Presented by Alagappan Maruthappan from Netflix

Netflix operates over 15 Trino clusters, efficiently handling more than 10 million queries each month. As the initial creator of the Apache Iceberg, Netflix has over 1 million Iceberg tables extensively using the Trino Iceberg connector. In this session we talk about the operational challenges faced, internal efficiency improvements, and our experience with upgrading to the latest Trino version.

Maximizing cost efficiency in data analytics with Trino and Iceberg #

Presented by Gopi Bhagavathula from Branch

At Branch, we realized that our existing architecture, was not only expensive but also becoming unsustainable as data volumes grew for one of our business units and we decided to adopt Trino and Apache Iceberg. Our journey of migrating from Apache Druid to Trino and Iceberg taught us that the right combination of tools can transform data analytics for one of our internal business units, offering the perfect balance between cost savings, performance, and scalability. Learn more how we achieved 7-figure savings with a few “compromises”.

Using Trino as a strangler fig #

Presented by Trevor Kennedy from Fanduel

This talk discusses how FanDuel uses Trino to migrate analysts from Redshift to Delta Lake using Martin Fowler’s Strangler Fig pattern. Trino slowly took roots after initial trials, started replacing parts of the legacy system, and eventually will be a complete replacement with a shadow of the original system.
