Distributed Database System
Research-oriented work around a distributed database implementation derived from Spanner-RSS,
focused on consistency tradeoffs, experiment execution, and performance evaluation in distributed environments.
This work involved contributing to a distributed database codebase in the Spanner-RSS family,
a variant of Spanner designed to explore consistency relaxations and lower tail latency for
read-heavy distributed workloads. The project combined systems implementation with experimental workflows.
- Developed and tested C++ applications in a distributed database environment.
- Worked around consistency, fault tolerance, and performance tradeoff questions.
- Built and ran experiments in Linux and CloudLab-based environments.
- Supported performance evaluation workflows for distributed storage and database behavior.
- Shows hands-on comfort with distributed systems code beyond high-level application development.
- Connects implementation work with research-driven experimentation and measurement.
- Strengthens my portfolio on backend and systems engineering roles where performance and correctness matter.
- Languages & Tools: C++17, Python, CMake, GCC/G++
- Environment: Linux, CloudLab, experiment automation scripts
- Domain: Distributed databases, transaction consistency, performance experimentation
