As more organizations run ETL workloads, analytics, and machine learning on data residing in data lakes, there are inherent privacy and integrity risks that must be addressed. How then, should organizations preserve privacy and control access to this data as per regulations such as GDPR and CCPA.

While most organizations have put some measures for data governance in data lakes, current high-level file-level security measures and accepted best practices are not sufficient for data privacy and integrity requirements. 

In this webinar, Qubole data privacy and integrity experts will cover:

- Maintaining data integrity and keeping sensitive information safe irrespective of open-source engine
- Providing granular data access controls and the ability to mask data with Apache Ranger
- Avoiding lost updates, dirty reads, stale reads and enforcing app-specific integrity constraints
- Complying with “right to be forgotten” and “right to be erased” by ensuring that data in the data lake is current and deleted when necessary
- Live Q&A with our hosts

Mastering Data Governance on Cloud Data Lakes with Multiple Engines

Succeeding with a Cloud Data Lake - from Architecture to Operations

Data engineers today serve a wider audience than just a few years ago.  Companies now need to apply machine learning (ML) techniques on their data in order to remain relevant.  Among the new challenges faced by data engineers is the need to build and fill Data Lakes as well as reliably delivering complete large-volume data sets so that data scientists can train more accurate models.  

Aside from dealing with  larger data volumes, these pipelines need to be flexible in order to accommodate the variety of data and the high processing velocity required by the new ML applications. Qubole addresses these challenges by providing an auto-scaling cloud-native platform to build and run these data pipelines.

In this webinar we will cover:
- Some of the typical challenges faced by data engineers when building pipelines for machine learning.
- Typical uses of the various Qubole engines to address these challenges.
- Real-world customer examples

Best Practices: How To Build Scalable Data Pipelines for Machine Learning

Cloud service models have become the new norm for enterprise deployments in almost every category — and big data is no exception. The separation of storage and compute in the cloud afford unparalleled scale, efficiency, and economics compared to on-premise solutions.

If you are using Cloudera, Hortonworks or MapR, you should attend this webinar to learn the key differences between on-premise and cloud solutions, considerations for selecting cloud data lakes and data warehouses, and how to build the right architecture for your organizations analytics and machine learning needs.

In this webinar, we’ll cover:

- Difference between hosting an on-premise data platform in the cloud versus adopting a cloud-native architecture for data processing in the cloud
- How a cloud data lake architecture differs from cloud data warehouses 
- How to move your data to the cloud and leverage big data engines like Apache Spark, Presto, Hive and more
- Avoiding security and cost pitfalls that can derail your migration to the cloud
- Demo of Qubole’s cloud-native platform

Key Differences Between On-Prem and Cloud Data Platforms

Presto is the go-to query engine of Qubole customers for interactive and reporting use cases due to its excellent performance and ability to join unstructured and structured data in seconds. Many Qubole customers use Presto along with their favorite BI tools, such as PowerBI, Looker and Tableau to explore data and run queries. 

Two key criteria to look for in a query engine for interactive analytics are performance and cost. You want best-in-class performance to meet the short deadlines of interactive workloads, while reducing and/or controlling costs.

Qubole Presto is a cloud-optimized version of open source Presto, with enhancements that improve performance, reliability and cost. In this webinar, we’ll cover:
