VLDB 2021 this week, we are discussing our work on "TURL: Table Understanding through Representation Learning" Paper: arxiv.org/pdf/2006.14806… Recorded video: youtube.com/watch?v=wiCCn3… Also feel free to email us if you have any questions/comments.

VLDB is the premier conference on databases and storage, and this year’s industry track is unreal! - RAMP-TAO: Layering Atomic Transactions on Facebook’s Online TAO Data Store - The evolution of Amazon Redshift - Big Metadata: When Metadata is Big Data (Google, natch)

More DB goodness with day 3 vldb.org/2021/?program-… demos, tutorials, research, industry, SDS talks, and a keynote by the always superlative Gerhard Weikum!

ICYM Michael Whittaker’s dissertation talk, he has a short video on Scaling Replicated State Machines with Compartmentalization from his session at #VLDB2021 today. In which distributed protocols are refactored for scale-out and simplicity. bilibili.com/video/BV1wo4y1… VLDB 2021

The video for our VLDB Panel on ML for Database Tuning is available on Youtube: youtube.com/watch?v=Z-R8q-… One of the main takeaways from Sam Lightstone: Start simple with blackbox tuning. Then bring in more advanced whitebox ML methods as needed.

Some shots from day 3

1/2 Caching for analytics has resurfaced as a challenge in today's disaggregated cloud analytics database architecture. At @VLDB2021, we present research on Crystal - a new DB-agnostic semantic caching middleware. Paper: badrish.net/papers/crystal… Video: youtube.com/watch?v=bI0_1S…

More data action on day 4 vldb.org/2021/?program-… On top of all best database research, we have our award session, more SDS talks (Manasi Vartak & Nigam Shah), and a panel by Zack Ives on DB education.

We had a lot of fun at @VLDB2021. #databases #streaming #iot #VLDB2021 #VLIoT #BIFOLD
