Was part of a team Autoindex of AI WORKS division (http://www.worksap.com/aiworks/) which worked on building the indexing framework for the product developers (to make a secondary index on the Cassandra tables) with the help of technologies such as Kafka, Spark, and others. - Developed a filter feature for their framework which is analogous to SQL filter. It was a challenge to do so as Cassandra being a distributed No-SQL database. - Also, developed and implemented a pipeline architecture to support MSA(Micro Service Architecture) in their framework. It required a critical research as MSA requires independent services and our framework lacked that so has to change some of the integral part of framework to use MSA. Apart from this, I was also involved with the SRE team in deploying the framework successfully for the customers.
