Big Data Publication • Fast Data in the Era of Big Data: Twitter’s Real-Time Related Query Suggestion Architecture • http://arxiv.org/pdf/1210.7350v1.pdf • Architecture behind Twitter's real-time related query suggestion and spelling correction service • First implementation: typical Hadoop-based analytics stack, did not meet the latency requirement • Second implementation: system deployed in production, custom in-memory processing engine
Big Data Publication • Fast Candidate Generation for Two-Phase Document Ranking: Postings List Intersection with Bloom Filters • http://www.umiacs.umd.edu/~jimmylin/publications/Asadi_Lin_CIKM2012.pdf • Most modern web search engines employ a two-phase ranking strategy: a candidate list of documents is generated using a “cheap” but low-quality scoring function, which is then reranked by an “expensive" but high-quality method • Candidate generation for conjunctive query processing in this context • A fast, approximate postings list intersection algorithms based on Bloom Filters
