Sole architect of a new kind of distributed time series database that powers all of last.fm's charts and play count data. It replaced a SQL cluster that was buckling under explosive user growth. Included a custom VM, query DSL, poor man's paxos, performance-optimized log structured storage layer - doing NoSQL before it was cool. At peak handled ~10k queries/updates per second.Oversaw last.fm's effort to fix every song, album, and artist title on the planet. Disambiguated billions of instances of music metadata across hundreds of millions of music libraries:http://blog.last.fm/2008/03/25/fingerprinting-and-metadata-progress-reportDeveloped a scalable clustering process over a sparse feature space that munges string distance, collaborative filtering signals, unicode hacks, but most importantly audio features:http://blog.last.fm/2007/09/21/edge-casesBuilt last.fm’s audio fingerprinting indexing architecture. Developed a novel noise-resistant descriptor based on computer vision techniques - now an industry standard approach. Wrote some stupid bash tricks:http://blog.last.fm/2009/04/06/mapreduce-bash-scriptLast.fm ultimately sold to CBS for $280M.
