phoenix-adapters: DynamoDB on Phoenix
Your DynamoDB app, unchanged, on Apache Phoenix. No new SDK, no new data model, no rewrite.
I'm a Senior Software Engineer at Salesforce on the Phoenix Database team, where I help develop and operate a large fleet of Apache Phoenix and Apache HBase clusters. I'm interested in distributed systems, databases, and large-scale infrastructure.
Previously, I completed my Master's in Computer Science at UC San Diego, focused on distributed systems and machine learning. Before that, I was a Software Developer on the Adobe Media Optimizer team, where I built a streaming architecture for search-advertising attribution. I earned my B.Tech in Computer Science from IIT Kanpur in 2017, and spent a summer at the Adobe BigData Experience Lab integrating a topic-model-based prediction system into Adobe Illustrator.
Outside of work, I play musical instruments like drums and bass, and enjoy sports like badminton, tennis, and basketball.
