Nishant Neeraj (http://naishe.in) is a software engineer at the BrightContext corporation. He builds software that can handle massive in-stream data, process it, and store it reliably, efficiently, and most importantly, quickly. He also manages the cloud infrastructure and makes sure that things stay up no matter what hit the data center in the middle of hardware failures and sudden surges of data inflow.
He has six years of experience in building web applications in Java as a backend engineer. He has been using Cassandra in production-ready web applications since Version 0.6 in 2010. His interests lie in building scalable applications for large data sets. He works with Java, MySQL, Cassandra, Twitter Storm, Amazon Web Services, JavaScript, and Linux on a daily basis, and he has recently developed an interest in Machine Learning, Data Analysis, and Data Science in general.
It would have been difficult for me to complete this book without the support of a large number of people.
First, I would like to thank the people at BrightContext (http://www.brightcontext.com) for giving me the opportunity to do a lot of experiments with distributed computing and cloud infrastructure, and especially Leo Scott, Arunn Rajagopalan, and Steven Fusco for their technical suggestions.
A lot of credit goes to the online resources that helped me learn about the various technologies in this book. In the context of this book, I would like to acknowledge the people at Cassandra's mailing list, Jonathan Ellis and Christian Hasker of DataStax (http://www.datastax.com/), Aaron Morton of The Last Pickle (http://thelastpickle.com/about.html), Julian Browne (http://www.julianbrowne.com/) for one of the most excellent articles on the CAP theorem, Dave Gardner (http://www.davegardner.me.uk/), and DataStax for their exhaustive documentation.
On a more personal note, my siblings Rashmi, Deepshikha, and Rajat have provided invaluable support during the writing process, tolerating my highs and lows as I put together the final draft on top of an already busy schedule. Thanks to my friends Nihar and Tauseef, who kept me motivated, and thanks to my nieces Pariwa and Kittoo, without whom this book would have been completed a month earlier, but with a lot less fun. Lastly, thanks to my parents for their inspiration.
I'd like to express my gratitude to everyone at Packt Publishing involved in development and production of this book. I'd like to thank Anugya Khurana for keeping me on my toes to make sure things happen as they were scheduled, Anila Vincent, Peter Larsson, and Paul Weinstein for patiently going through the first draft and providing valuable feedbacks.
I am indebted to the FOSS (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_and_open-source_software) community for providing excellent tools that are at par with their commercial counterparts. Cassandra is one of the greatest examples of the success of open source. Until the final draft, this book was written using only free and open source software such as Ubuntu, LibreOffice Writer, LibreOffice Draw, Git, VIM, Cassandra, PyCassa, Hadoop, Nagios, and others.
Peter Larsson is a passionate software engineer and an open source evangelist. He has spent 28 years of his career creating software and commercially successful software products. And at all times, he has had the privilege to work with state-of-the-art technology in collaboration with very talented fellow workers. His special skills are in the fields of systems architecture and high-level design, and he views technology from a holistic perspective. Back in the 90s, he pioneered agile ways of working and used Java in large-scale product development organizations. Peter has a wide range of experience from different business domains, but with emphasis on telecom and high volume transaction systems.
I would like to thank my great colleagues at Callista Enterprise, for making every day a learning experience.
