Kodey contributed to the HubSpot/hbase repository by developing and refining backup and recovery features for distributed HBase systems. Over three months, Kodey implemented a system table restore procedure using Java and Protobuf, introducing a disable-restore-enable flow with snapshot-based recovery and comprehensive end-to-end testing. Kodey also enhanced incremental backup correctness by preserving HFile sequence IDs, updating HFileOutputFormat2, and ensuring client compatibility through targeted tests. Addressing operational efficiency, Kodey fixed WAL backup duplication for decommissioned hosts, reducing storage costs and improving backup reliability. The work demonstrated depth in backend development, distributed systems, and unit testing, with a focus on robust, maintainable solutions.

December 2025 monthly summary for HubSpot/hbase focusing on backup correctness and efficiency. Key deliverable: WAL backup deduplication for inactive/decommissioned hosts to prevent duplication during incremental backups and reduce backup sizes, improving storage cost efficiency and reliability of backups.

November 2025: Delivered Incremental Backup HFiles sequence ID preservation in HubSpot/hbase, improving backup correctness and client reads. Updated HFileOutputFormat2 to handle sequence ID metadata, enabled feature in IncrementalTableBackupClient, and added tests to verify preservation and proper usage during HFile reads. This work enhances data integrity, client compatibility, and operational reliability for incremental backups.
