Info

My hands-on experience is strong and accurate in a wide range of domains, going from distributed application design, database and data management to system administration (DevOps) and team leading. More than an engineer, I'm a doer and a strong team player leading by example. My motto could be summarized like this: "We're only one small step away from infeasibility: the first step".
My favorite topics in IT-related fields includes client-server, distributed and scalable systems and data retrieval.

NoSQL enthusiast and Apache Committer, I give frequent public presentations in local and European IT conferences. Public decks are available on Slideshare http://www.slideshare.net/benoitperroud/ and part of the projects I'm working on can be seen on Github https://github.com/killerwhile.

Specialties: Distributed Applications Engineering, Cloud Computing, Data Storage and Retrieval, Data Processing, Hadoop, Hadoop and Hadoop. And Hadoop ecosystem :)

  • Big Data Analytics on High Velocity Streams: A Case Study

    IEEE BigData 2013

    Big data management is often characterized by three Vs: Volume, Velocity and Variety. While traditional batch-oriented systems like map-reduce are able to scale-out and process very large volumes of data in parallel, they also introduce some significant latency. In this paper, we focus on the second V (Velocity) of the Big Data triad; We present a case study where we use a popular open-source stream processing engine (Storm) to perform real-time integration and trend detection on Twitter and…

    Big data management is often characterized by three Vs: Volume, Velocity and Variety. While traditional batch-oriented systems like map-reduce are able to scale-out and process very large volumes of data in parallel, they also introduce some significant latency. In this paper, we focus on the second V (Velocity) of the Big Data triad; We present a case study where we use a popular open-source stream processing engine (Storm) to perform real-time integration and trend detection on Twitter and Bitly streams. We describe our trend detection solution below and experimentally demonstrate that our architecture can effectively process data in real-time - even for high-velocity streams.

  • Hybrid Approach to Enable Real-Time Queries to End-Users

    Software Developer's Journal

    Enhancing the BigData stack with real time search capabilities is the next natural step for the Hadoop ecosystem, because the MapReduce framework was not designed with synchronous processing in mind.

  • Compression of small strings

    Ausgestellt am US 8,924,446

    A method for compressing a set of small strings may include calculating n-gram frequencies for a plurality of n-grams over the set of small strings, selecting a subset of n-grams from the plurality of n-grams based on the calculated n-gram frequencies, defining a mapping table that maps each n-gram of the subset of n-grams to a unique code, and compressing the set of small strings by replacing n-grams within each small string in the set of small strings with corresponding unique codes from the…

The method may use linear optimization to select a subset of n-grams that achieves a maximum space saving amount over the set of small strings for inclusion in the mapping table. The unique codes may be variable-length one or two byte codes. The set of small strings may be domain names.

    Many business processes are nowadays generating significant volumes of data that contains valuable information. The main objective of DAPLAB is to reduce the entry barrier for Swiss companies to find value out of their data and ultimately turn into a data-driven company.

    DAPLAB will answer the needs of educational and economic partners through the integration of analytic algorithms, benchmark data sets and education materials. As a central point of activities, DAPLAB will manage a cluster of servers dedicated to data storage and computation, based on Hadoop and ecosystem, to which universities and companies will have access.
