Part 2: Yugabyte - Deep dive into a distributed SQL database Jun 11, 2020

Welcome to our 5rd episode. This is the second part of a two part series where go deep into the internals of Yugabyte with Karthik and Kannan. Yugabyte is a highly scalable and developer friendly open source distributed SQL database. Yugabyte is built by an Ex-Facebook team that wanted to bring what they learnt running one of the latest databases on the planet out into the open source world.

Learn more about how the shared-nothing architecture used by Yugabyte works and how the team build Postgres and other API layers on top of a highly-scalable document DB powered by their own fork of RocksDB.

Our guests for this episode are:

Kannan Muthukkaruppan, Founder & President, Product Dev. @ Yugabyte
Karthik Ranganathan, Founder & CTO @ YugaByte

Part 1: Yugabyte - Deep dive into a distributed SQL database Jun 11, 2020

One thing I find really fascinating with Yugabyte is that they are fully compatible with Postgres, Redis and Apache Cassandra which makes it easy to replace a lot of infrastructure with just Yugabyte. Hope you enjoy the listen and remember to subscribe for many more of these deep technical discussions.

Part 2: Apache Kafka - Walkthrough of a distributed system May 27, 2020

Welcome to our 3nd episode. This is the second part of a two part series where we walk through a stateful distributed system. Join us as we take apart the famous Apache Kafka so as to look under the hood and understand more of the amazing engineering and computer science that has gone into building it. In this part we’ll talk about Apache Zookeeper the best kept secret in a lot of open source distributed systems. We’ll also touch upon clients, atomic broadcasts and things that can hurt availability. Hope you enjoy the ride as we walk the route taken by messages through Apache Kafka.
