Oleg Zhurakousky

Principal Architect w/Hortonworks

Oleg is a Principal Architect with Hortonworks responsible for architecting scalable BigData solutions using various OpenSource technologies available within and outside the Hadoop ecosystem. Before Hortonworls Oleg was part of the SpringSource/VMWare where he was a core engineer working on Spring Integration framework, leading Spring Integration Scala DSL and contributing to other projects in Spring portfolio. He has 17+ years of experience in software engineering across multiple disciplines including software architecture and design, consulting, business analysis and application development. Oleg has been focusing on professional Java development since 1999. Since 2004 he has been heavily involved in using several open source technologies and platforms across a number of projects around the world and spanning industries such as Teleco, Banking, Law Enforcement, US DOD and others.
As a speaker Oleg presented seminars at dozens of conferences worldwide (i.e.SpringOne, JavaOne, Java Zone, Jazoon, Java2Days, Scala Days, Uberconf, and others).

Presentations

High Speed Continuous & Reliable Data Ingest into Hadoop

This talk will explore the area of real-time data ingest into Hadoop and present the architectural trade-offs as well as demonstrate alternative implementations that strike the appropriate balance across the following common challenges:

  • Decentralized writes (multiple data centers and collectors)
  • Continuous Availability, High Reliability
  • No loss of data
  • Elasticity of introducing more writers
  • Bursts in Speed per syslog emitter
  • Continuous, real-time collection
  • Flexible Write Targets (local FS, HDFS etc.)

Go Beyond "Debug": Wire Tap your App for Knowledge with Hadoop

Today, application developers devote roughly 80% of their code to persisting roughly 20% of the total data flowing through the applications. That means two things:

  • 80% of the data flowing through our applications is at best lost in rolling log files, at worst never collected -- without ever being analyzed or accounted for.
  • Application-level database programming, licensing, storage, administration, and ETL processing have maxed out IT budgets and have constrained app development teams from keeping pace with the rate of change in the business. The other 80% of the data is "Event Data" that can no longer be ignored if you want to stay competitive. Changes to application state are already stored as a sequence of events in application and middleware logs. In fact, since this data never held value to anyone but the developer in the past, a lot of potentially valuable information is often never collected. With Hadoop, we can: * store and query these events - Transaction tracing,
  • use the event log to reconstruct the application domain at any point in time - ETL,
  • use the same event log to construct new domains we haven't planned for - ELT, and
  • automatically adjust our data domains to cope with retroactive changes - ???

In this talk, we will demonstrate how capturing all event data could dramatically simplify data collection and management within the enterprise.

Chess Pieces or Domain Expertise? Your Choice

Posted By: Johanna Rothman on Jun. 18, 2013

Many years ago, I started a job as a contract manager, and it became clear I had a big problem. I had developers who knew one area of the code well. I had testers who knew not much of any area of the code well, even though they had worked for the organi

Type-Safe Web with Kotlin

Posted By: Andrey Breslav on Jun. 17, 2013

We told you about Kara Web Framework a while ago. It is written in Kotlin and relies on type-safe builders. It doesn’t have to be the only web framework for Kotlin, but the general principles seem good, so I wrote an article about these principles

It’s Déjà vu All Over Again

Posted By: Alan Shalloway on Jun. 13, 2013

Several years ago I tried to discuss the need for Lean when Scrum was being used on projects with more than one team.  Ken Schwaber didn’t want to hear this and eventually threw me off the Scrum Development Yahoo discussions group.  I admit, I was talk

In Defense of Kanban

Posted By: Alan Shalloway on Jun. 8, 2013

As many folks know, Net Objectives does both Scrum and Kanban. Admittedly, our Scrum is very much like Scrumban (or Scrum done under the context of Lean) but it is still an implementation of Scrum.  Scrum, as it normally manifests itself, has several c

The Differences Between Lean Manufacturing and Lean Software Development

Posted By: Alan Shalloway on Jun. 8, 2013

Since lean comes from manufacturing, many question its validity for software developers. Our own experience is that Lean in software is very important.  This blog covers three areas: The essential paradigm shift of lean and why it applies even more to
