Apache Pinot is a distributed columnar database for real-time analytics. It powers many well-known applications, including LinkedIn’s Who Viewed My Profile feature and Uber Eats timely analytics. Since Pinot joined Apache Incubator in 2019, it has gained a lot of momentum with a growing community.
During this May 2020 Uber Engineering Meetup, software engineers Sidd and Xiang introduces new Apache Pinot integrations and features, including ORDER BY, DISTINCT, Text Search, and Standard SQL. They also discuss work being done to get Pinot cloud-ready, as well as its roadmap to Apache Incubator graduation.")

On October 24, 2019, the WiSDOM (Women in Statistics, Data, Optimization, and Machine Learning) Employee Resource Group hosted the second annual Moving The World With Data meetup, welcoming hundreds of members of the Bay Area tech community to learn about some of our toughest, most interesting data science problems.
In this presentation, Ashley Edwards, a research scientist with Uber AI Labs, shares original work from the machine learning discipline of reinforcement learning. Using examples from the game Coin Run and other simple tasks, she demonstrates how an agent can be made to learn latent policies through observation. She also posed a question: in the future, can we expect robots to learn to act like humans by watching us move?

During this April 2019 meetup in San Francisco, Uber research scientist, Piero Molino introduces Ludwig, a deep learning toolbox that lets people without a machine learning background train prediction models without the need to write code. Ludwig is unique in its ability to help make deep learning easier to understand for non-experts and enable faster model improvement iteration cycles for experienced machine learning developers and researchers alike. By using Ludwig, experts and researchers can simplify the prototyping process and streamline data processing so that they can focus on developing deep learning architectures.")
