Enhancing Distributed System Load Shedding with TCP Congestion Control Algorithm

Zalando Engineering

But our system is event driven, all requests we process are delivered as events via Nakadi. We know if our system runs within its normal limits that we meet our SLOs. If we would control the ingestion of message requests into our system we would be able to process the task in a timely manner.

Bring Your Own Algorithm to Anomaly Detection

Pinterest Engineering

Warden started off as a Java Thrift service built around the EGADs open-source library, which contains Java implementations of various time-series anomaly detection algorithms. They found the existing selection of anomaly detection algorithms in EGADs to be limiting. Each job is load-balanced to a node in the Warden cluster.

K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) Algorithm for Machine Learning

Knowledge Hut

If you are thinking of a simple, easy-to-implement supervised machine learning algorithm that can be used to solve both classifications as well as regression problems, K-Nearest Neighbors (K-NN) is a perfect choice. K-Nearest Neighbors is one of the most basic supervised machine learning algorithms, yet very essential.
