From YouTube: Last Week in a Byte (2023-07-18)
Description
Welcome back to another edition of Last Week in a Byte! Over the next 2 editions, we'll recap all of the great Delta Lake sessions at this year's Data+AI Summit in San Francisco, CA.
A
A
Next
up,
ozcats
the
CTO
and
co-founder
of
Lake
FS
delivered
an
insightful
talk
on
the
future
of
data
analytics
Oz
points
out
some
of
the
shortcomings
and
popular
data
analytics
languages
like
python
or
Java,
and
how
rust
helps
Bridge
those
gaps.
Oz
points
out
some
of
the
recent
Innovations
in
the
rust
data
ecosystem.
A
How
rust
is
actually
a
great
fit
for
compiling
directly
the
web
assembly,
resulting
in
just
a
tiny
binary
that
could
execute
straight
from
within
your
browser,
and
one
of
my
favorite
sessions
comes
from
Simon
and
Zach
from
advancing
analytics
who
partnered
with
Jordan
Don
Meyer
and
Chad
deremis
at
the
Hershey
Company
to
build
a
major
retailer
API
at
Breakneck
speed.
The
team
describes
their
year-long
journey
to
implement
the
Hershey
commercial
data
store,
which
delivers
real-time
data
and
actionable
insights
at
the
heart
of
it.
A
All
is
Delta
Lake
which
easily
scales
to
their
billion
row
tables
and
Powers.
A
variety
of
reports
and
dashboards
for
their
SQL
analyst
Michael
stelmo
from
databricks
also
presented
a
great
talk
on
how
to
scale
deep
learning
pipelines
using
Delta.
Lake
Michael
explains
how
Delta
torture
is
a
really
small
Library,
based
upon
the
Delta
rust
implementation,
which
utilizes
Pi
Arrow
to
read
the
data
files
during
distributed
training,
Michael's
Benchmark
Delta
torch
was
almost
two
times
faster
at
distributed
training
than
pedestorm,
pretty
impressive,
and
in
case
you
missed
it.
A
I
also
presented
a
short
lightning
talk
on
building
data
sharing
apps
using
node.js.
We
look
back
at
the
last
decade
to
see
how
JavaScript
has
remained
a
top
programming
language
for
repos
created
on
GitHub.
Lastly,
we
looked
at
how
the
node.js
connector
for
Delta
sharing
can
simplify
data
architectures
by
removing
the
need
to
copy
data
into
key
value
stores.
A
Well,
that's
all
the
time
I
have
for

week.
