[1] [2] It has been publishing papers since 2008 [3] and was officially launched in 2011. [4] The AMPLab was co-directed by Professor Michael J. Franklin, Michael I. Jordan, and Ion Stoica.
While AMPLab has worked on a wide variety of big data projects (known as BDAS, the Berkeley Data Analytics Stack [5]), many know it as the lab that invented Apache Mesos, [6] and Apache Spark, [7] and Alluxio. [8]
Berkeley launched RISELab [9] as the successor to AMPLab in 2017. [10]
