Apache BookKeeper is a high performance and low latency storage that is designed for high performance write ahead logging. It was originally designed by Yahoo! Research to provide highly available logging services for namenode in HDFS. Since then it has grown beyond the original scope and is being used by different companies like Salesforce, Twitter, and Yahoo, as a fundamental building block to build replicated services like stream store, pub/sub messaging, database transaction log, and many more.
In this presentation, JV Jujjuri (Salesforce) and Sijie (Twitter) will give an overview of Apache BookKeeper, from motivation, architecture, and performance to community. In addition, they will also show production use cases of Apache BookKeeper.
