In this presentation from Berlin Buzzwords 2012 we show how the SPM, our Performance Monitoring service is built. How metrics are collected, how they are processed, and how they are presented. We share a few findings along the way, too.
Note: we are actively looking for people with strong Java engineers. If that’s you, please get in touch. Separately, if you have interest and/or experience with HBase and/or Analytics, OLAP, and related areas, or if you are looking to work with ElasticSearch, Solr, and search in general please get in touch, too.

Here are slides from another talk we gave at both Berlin Buzzwords and at HBaseCon in San Francisco last month. In this presentation Alex describes one approach to real-time analytics with HBase, which we use at Sematext via HBaseHUT. If you like these slides you will also like HBase Real-time Analytics Rollbacks via Append-based Updates.
Note: we are actively looking for people with strong interest and/or experience with HBase and/or Analytics, OLAP, etc. If that’s you, please get in touch.
The short version is from Buzzwords, while the version with more slides is from HBaseCon:

We are done with a 2-days long Berlin Buzzwords conference. The conference was good, a success for both the organizers and for Sematext – we saw a ton of interest for both our Performance Monitoring and Search Analytics services and our talks were well received and attended by 200+ people each. Between the presentations we gave, talking to people interested in our products and/or services, as well as people expressing interest in joining Sematext (ask us how much fun we had in Berlin!), even with 5 Sematextans around we had our hands full.
Note: we are actively looking for people with strong interest and/or experience with ElasticSearch, Solr, and search in general. If that’s you, please get in touch.
Below are the slides from Rafal’s talk about scaling Elastic Search:

For those who missed @sematext‘s giveaway tweet - this year we’ll again be a Berlin Buzzwords sponsor and as such have a number of free tickets available to give away. Who says there is no such thing as a free lunch? To get your ticket, just contact us. First come first serve.
The Berlin Buzzwords 2-day program looks very promising, full of talks on interesting topics. We’ll also be giving 3 talks: on ElasticSearch, on Real-time Analytics with HBase, and on how we’ve built SPM.
See you in Berlin!

HBaseCon 2012 is the first-ever HBase-focused conference happening this May in San Francisco. I’m happy to say that Sematext will be there as both a sponsor (likely) and a presenter (definitely) along Facebook, Cloudera, Adobe, Tumblr (nice to see our clients there!) and others. Alex will be presenting our work on HBaseHUT, one of Sematext open-sourced projects that were spun out of our work on Scalable Performance Monitoring (for HBase, Solr, ElasticSearch, Sensei, etc.) and Search Analytics.
HBaseHUT makes real-time analytics with HBase possible today — pull requests welcome!

Here is another take on Search Analytics, this one being presented at Enterprise Search Summit Fall 2011 in Washington DC, to an audience coming mainly from the US government agencies, very large enterprises, and large international companies with 10s of thousands of employees world wide. The audience was good and posed a number of good questions after the talk. The full slide deck is below as well as in Sematext@Slideshare.

Last week involved a few late nights for some of us at Sematext – we were busy readying our Search Analytics and Scalable Performance Monitoring services, as well as putting the final touches on the our Search Analytics: Business Value & NoSQL Backend presentation for Lucene Eurocon in Barcelona.
In the past we’ve given a few other public talks about Search Analytics and you can check them all out via http://blog.sematext.com/tag/analytics/.
