Salutare. Luni, 27 octombrie 2014, de la ora 14:00, în sala EG301 îi avem invitați pe cei de la Bloomberg R&D[1] cu o prezentare tehnică "Hadoop at Bloomberg". Bloomberg este o firmă de software financiar, cu produse, tehnologie și infrastructură de ultimă generație, iar Bloomberg R&D este departamentul ce cuprinde inginerii software care construiesc aceste produse.
Pe lângă prezentare și pizza :-), vom avea și discuții despre internship-uri pentru studenți, oportunități de colaborare, research & development și open source la Bloomberg. Mai jos sunt câteva informații despre prezentarea de luni și despre Bloomberg R&D. Vă așteptăm! Pentru alte informatii urmăriți și pagina de pe Facebook a evenimentului[2]. Ne vedem acolo!

HBase is a natural fit in many ways for time series data, but the absolute performance and tight availability tolerances are more restrictive then the general web case. Our "medium data" problem of dozens of terabytes of data with high reliability and consistently low latency is an interesting one to consider as the capabilities and maturity of the Hadoop ecosystem continue to expand. In this talk, we'll detail our experiences in driving towards performance goals on high core modern machines, and which techniques have born fruit, from multiple region servers per machine to synchronized garbage collection to secondary region servers, and offer a glimpse of future development. --- Bloomberg’s R&D department is a global team of more than 3,000 software engineers and infrastructure architects responsible for creating the world’s premiere source for real-time and historical financial market data and analytics. We provide communications platforms, data, analytics, trading platforms, news and information to the world’s leading financial market participants. Our unrivaled software, platforms, and mobile applications are delivered on top of our state-of-the-art software and hardware developed by Bloomberg technologists for Bloomberg customers. In a nutshell: - We provide a 24/7 service, real-time data and instant communication - The code needs to be scalable, reliable, high-performance - We use a variety of technologies (C++, JAVA, proprietary database and communications) - The Bloomberg culture is a dynamic, flat hierarchy where you are responsible for what you write ----- _______________________________________________ http://ocw.cs.pub.ro/courses/so/info/lista-discutii
