Looks good. Curious, how is auth handled? Lot of docs have permissions etc. Can you clarify how this is handled in both indexing side and searching side of things?

This was a brilliant strategy. It allowed Google time to build Chrome at the same time slowing down : (1) explorer (2) Got decent data on CAC for browsers and what channels work and what don't. Its interesting to see new era of browser

Great work! Is there a place I can checkout for good quality non spammy "business simulation" games?

Good move! Would help consolidate Hadoop ecosystem. MapR would find it hard to compete now. Both these companies are being challenged with a new crop of Databricks and the confluents of the world.

Although implementation may be ugly and/ or shocking - the concept in itself has interesting roots. Although social media in itself is vital - we are seeing more usage of it correlates with negative behavior pattern (as is excessive tv

You can use this for any execution. eg. here is a job type to trigger shell command such as ' echo "hello" ' http://azkaban.github.io/azkaban/docs/latest/#command-type Note execution envir

At LinkedIn we heavily use Azkaban for this. (Open source: https://azkaban.github.io/ ) Azkaban API can be used to launch offline computation jobs as necessary - Azkaban ensures monitoring, SLA alerting, failed restarts and

$4 billion food delivery business! Thats pretty neat. Uber is showing signs that they can succeed in general logistic space also besides just taxi business.

Why airbnb needs so much cash? They are not exactly subsidizing either side of the market?

This is pure monopoly play - I hope Lyft continues to compete and do not merge ... I hate to be in world where no taxi service exists and I am at the mercy of random surge pricing...

Pager duty is one of the must have 3rd party apps in pretty much every user facing system I can think of! The the UX side it can improve - but it's rock solid in what it does! Well done!

Question remains - if this is winner takes all market. If it is - only one company will survive. As a consumer most important thing for me is to get cab as quickly and cheaply as possible maintaining the basic standards of cleanliness, and

This looks great. Some open questions - 1. How does it scale horizontally? if I am consuming from say topic with 100 partitions - do I have to deploy this on library on multiple nodes? or expectation is we need to embed this inside spark st

$2 billion is not staggering amount. Given it has over 300 Million active users - thats just $6~$7 for user acquisition. If you want to build twitter today - its definitely going to cost more. It has built a brand - and hundreds of millions

Why does YC needs to grow into 2000 companies/ year program? I feel they should tackle it like a University. Stanford does not try to grow 10x from 20k students to 200k students. Part of the appeal is exclusivity (besides of course its

It would be nice to list tear downs in the order in which they were reviewed - so I can read new ones quickly when I visit. Looks like current list is alphabetically sorted.

I just wonder instead of going back and forth and create more controversy - why don't they just show which tests are working right now - and which don't. Demonstrating with data is the best defense they can put forth. its ok - if

I wonder if companies like door dash/ instacart are operating at negative margins? Uber tinkering with price too much has not gone down well with uber drivers in bay area either.

Cool. So in a way its Immutable read only HBase (with guaranteed data locality no memstore overhead and compactions overhead). Cool. Nice solution. I wonder this can be patched back to HBase - as a "read only mode" ?

Hi Varun, Can you also elaborate, how you read HFiles and serve it out from Terrapin servers? Are you using similar functionality as HBase? (With block cache like design if yes how do you keep both in sync). Your blog is missing this intere

Bulk Uploads into KV stores are slow - so Terrapin allows KV access over immutable HDFS files. Very typical use case for recommendation systems etc. We face similar problems with latencies on HBase (At Groupon). So this solution seems inter
