AMPLAB was a University of California, Berkeley lab focused on big data analytics located in Soda Hall. The name stands for the Algorithms, Machines and People Lab.[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]
