Overcoming Challenges Running the Disaggregated Analytics Stack in K8s

Alluxio brings back data locality for the disaggregated analytics stack in K8s. The modern analytical stack is a highly disaggregated stack. Unlike traditional databases or data warehouses, the new stack is split apart. The ideal solution is for data locality to be recreated in this kind of stack. No Shared Data Access / Caching Layer in the K8’s cluster. Data-intensive workloads like advanced analytics typically need data sharing between jobs to be effective so that data from one job can be easily accessed by the next.
