The Reliability Stories You Won't Hear on LinkedIn
We had the pleasure of meeting Ponmani Palanisamy, a Staff Site Reliability Engineer at LinkedIn, at a recent SRE Meetup in Bangalore. Ponmani gave an insightful talk on "Improving data redundancy and rebalancing data in HDFS." We were captivated by his talk and eager to learn more about his experience in the reliability space. We talked about everything including his journey, experiences, and of course, his most memorable war room stories over a steady career of 17 years. Here's what he had to share.
