      Husky is a distributed computing system designed to handle mixed jobs of coarse-grained transformations, graph computing and machine learning. The core of Husky is written in C++ so as to leverage the performance of native runtime. For machine learning, Husky supports relaxed consistency level and asynchronous computing in order to exploit higher network/CPU throughput.I am engaged in this project and mainly in charge of the API development.

      I was working in the search federation team under search infra which is a searching mid-tier in the LInkedIn search platform.During the internship, I implemented a feature which allows to route traffic among different clusters based on the config. This feature helped engineers to perform index A/B testing in a more efficient way. Instead of a turnaround of 2-3 days to enable this routing for a vertical, it can be done in 1 day with this feature. Another task is part of the platformization project. I implemented the Pagination Module which is a component in the search workflow. It provides great flexibility for clients. They could either use the default implementation (with customized configuration) or override the methods completely to achieve their own functionality. Show less
