Hi Everyone, SF / East Bay Area Storm Monthly Meetup is going to be on* Jan 8th (Thursday) at 6:45pm* at
*TubeMogul* *1250 53rd* *St #1* *Emeryville, CA* *Speaker* : Eric Allen (from AdRoll) *Topic*: You're Doing It Wrong! How we used Storm wrong, then right, for a distributed HTTP client at AdRoll *Description*: My team at AdRoll is responsible for the infrastructure that powers dynamic display ads across the web. To do this well, we use Apache Storm to parse hundreds of product catalogs and mirror millions of images per day. This turns out to be an odd workload for Storm, so along the way we've learned a great deal about workers, queues, and monitoring in Storm. In this talk I'll share some approaches we tried that didn't work, some solutions that did work, and advice on how to inspect a misbehaving Storm topology. Please RSVP at http://www.meetup.com/Bay-Area-Storm-Users/events/218816484/. The more the merrier, so share about this meetup on social networks. Thanks -- Siva Jagadeesan
