Open Source solves day one problem but running a full stack of cloud-native applications, whether on-prem or on cloud, can become very complicated very quickly. That’s why managed services are so important for open source. To ease the deployment of Presto, Ahana has created managed services around the open source Presto project, which came out of the Hadoop ecosystem. At the recently held PrestoCon Day, the company announced new capabilities for its Presto managed service. We invited Dipti Borkar, Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer at Ahana, to discuss these new capabilities and also the importance of managed services.
