As a company 1 , we build distributed platforms which our clients can use to easily build massively distributed programs. For me, I research, design and implement essential components of the distributed platform.
During this internship my mentor and I laid the groundwork for a distributed profiling and performance monitoring system. It works together with Google's distributed task management system 2 to do on-demand profiling of tasks.
For this internship, I worked with a team from Fusion-io, a cutting edge storage device company acquired by SanDisk. I developed a persistent memory manager for byte-addressable non-volatile memory systems, with the help of my team and mentor.
