Daft

Robotics produces high-volume time series alongside video and lidar, with different sampling rates, large payloads, and expensive GPU-based feature computation. These workloads shape the storage and featurization systems we are building at Eventual for pretraining-scale video/sensor data curation. We’ll show how standard open-source building blocks—Apache Iceberg, Parquet, object storage, and MP4—combine with careful database engineering to support these workloads at... Read More
