Out of interest, what kind of tooling did you build for Kafka?

Would Prime95 be likely to damage hardware if ran for a prolonged period on aws/gce/azure? Do they have anything in their contracts telling you not to do that?

Exciting times in database land! It certainly seems like the good systems are converging on very similar storage architectures. This design is so similar to how Kafka and Kudu work internally. As the raw storage seems pretty optimal now, I

I think this means that there are e.g. 10 million different time series, that each get a new sample appended every 10 seconds.

From looking at their examples and interfaces, it's clearly for simple, small scale processing.

I wonder where the bottleneck was. Right below that result they have the performance plot that shows how it used up almost no CPU or network bandwidth. I'd expect S3 to be faster than this? FWIW, I've been playing with parquet and

I'd love to see a bit more of monocular without having to install it. Do you know if there are any screenshots, blog posts or even a demo instance?

Can you elaborate a bit on what this actually means? How would I use it? How does a query look like?

I like it a lot! Does the duration include travel time? I'm in London and it suggests flying to India and Peru for a 3 day weekend trip. I'd be nice to see how much time you'd actually have at the destination, given a certain

Even better, you can build shady counterfeit circuits yourself that happen to pass the test cases but don't really do what the customer requested.

Kafka gives you vastly better delivery guarantees than the common ActiveMQ brokers. If you put a message into Kafka and have it configured correctly, it will come out on the other end at least once. This is not the case for most of the comp

This needs a [2015]. Back then there wasn't a single usable client for .net. Since then the non-Java clients have massively improved. In particular https://github.com/edenhill/librdkafka is fantastic. There's

You can use event logs and eventual consistency to solve this problem. Basically you make the transfer of money an event that is then atomically committed to an event log. The two bank accounts then eventually incorporate that state. See h

Thanks. So it's building a hash tree with deterministic chunking and that means you can cheaply update the hash after updating parts of the tree as you only have to rehash certain bits? Does that mean that your chunk sizes are kind of

by ah- 10y ago
Can you elaborate a bit on how the hashing and chunking works? There's a rolling hash for determining chunk boundaries, and also SHA-512/256 somewhere. Does the same data chunked differently have a different hash?

It'd be fantastic to combine something like noms with https://arrow.apache.org/ and then use Spark/Drill/Impala to query it.
