    Architect - Real Time Data Infrastructure

    In this role, I pioneered and led the work of Messaging As A Service featuring the unique multi-cluster Kafka ecosystem in AWS. The system is highly scalable to handle trillions of messages per day and is built with emphasis on availability, observability and operability. I also contributed rack-aware partition assignment to Apache Kafka, which significantly improved its fault tolerance in cloud environment. See below for my blogs and talks in QCon and Kafka Summit.
