Truecaller is a mobile application with over 200 million unique users worldwide. Every day truecaller stores over 1 billion rows of data that they use to analyse for improving their product. The data is stored in Hadoop, which is a framework for storing and analysing large amounts of data on a distributed file system. In order to be able to analyse these large amounts of data the analytics team needs a new solution for more lightweight, ad-hoc analysis. This thesis evaluates the performance of the query engine Presto to see if it meets the requirements to help the data analytics team at truecaller gain efficiency. By using a design-science methodology, Presto’s pros and cons are presented. Presto is recommended as a solution to be used together with the tools today for specific lightweight use cases for users that are familiar with the data sets used by the analytics team. Other solutions for future evaluation are also recommended before taking a final decision.Keywords: Hadoop, Big Data, Presto, Hive, SQL on Hadoop / <p>Validerat; 20160819 (global_studentproject_submitter)</p>
