Spinning metal platters IN THE CLOUD!!! @sashalaundy
physics + programming ! very little CS

! grouped = GROUP trimmed BY userId; ! counted = FOREACH grouped GENERATE group, COUNT(grouped);

I get this for FREE! • Mappin’ & reducin’ •
HDFS in the CLOUD! • Clusters AND nodes! • A rockin’ query plan!

“give me 500 rows where age > 15” Why so
slow?

MIND. BLOWN.
in my PIGSCRIPTS I had to worry about a spinning
METAL PLATTER somewhere in VIRGINIA!!!!

• Various schema? MONGO • Fast search? ELASTICSEARCH • Keep
history? DATOMIC • Want very fast analytics queries? REDSHIFT.
REDSHIFT production backend for your website! copy of your database
for your data team to play with!!
analytics needs lots of AGGREGATION ! like SUM, AVG, or
COUNT across ROWS
GRACE50VIRGINIAALAN45ENGLANDADA30ENGLAND So lots of seeking? GOSH DARN IT! but what
if…
GRACEALANADA504530VIRGINIAENGLANDENGLAND READING! ! YAYYYYYY!!!
GRACEALANADA504530VIRGINIAENGLANDENGLAND “columnar storage”
What’s faster than reading AND seeking? IGNORING

Redshift has lots more… • NODES so you can compute
in parallel • cool QUERY PLANS based on your actual data! • Not actually a database. “Managed data warehouse service in the cloud” • So blazing fast!
Really fast! …how fast? • 21,454,134 rows • COUNT(*) •
Postgres: 586,931.216 ms (10 minutes) • Redshift: 1,561.359 ms (1.5 seconds) 376 times faster! from http://dailytechnology.net/2013/08/03/redshift-what-you-need-to-know/
376x isn’t cool. You know what’s cool? 100,000x Instead of
native Python, a matrix! 100x Speed from OpenBLAS compared to numpy 10x Parallelization (for free from OpenBLAS) 10x 100,000x
redshift is fast
hardware matters
databases are cool
THANKS!!!! @sashalaundy sasha.io
