Worked on the IntersectMBO/lsm-tree repository, delivering a robust LSM-tree subsystem with a focus on union-table support, merge frameworks, and performance optimization. Over seven months, implemented features such as union-based merges, generalized readers, and enhanced debt/credit management, while refactoring core modules for modularity and maintainability. Leveraged Haskell and functional programming techniques to improve type safety, concurrency, and resource management, introducing property-based and unit testing to validate correctness. The technical approach emphasized safe abstractions, efficient data structures, and reliable snapshotting, resulting in a maintainable backend that supports scalable, low-latency queries and safer future enhancements for database systems.

Apr 1, 2025In 2025-04, delivered performance, correctness, and maintainability improvements for the IntersectMBO/lsm-tree module, with a clear focus on union-table support and robust testing. The work reduces latency for union queries, strengthens data integrity during cursors, and lays groundwork for future feature work and refactors. Business value: faster union-table lookups, safer blob reference handling, and a more reliable, maintainable codebase to enable upcoming features with lower risk.

Mar 1, 2025March 2025 — IntersectMBO/lsm-tree: Delivered two major features with strong business impact. LSM-tree Readers enhancements generalize reader sources (including write buffers and runs), enable recursive Readers, and rename RunReaders to Readers, increasing flexibility and reusability. Implemented union debt/credit management to support union operations on tables, complete remaining debt logic, and establish supply and credit tracking with tests to ensure correct accounting and distribution. These changes improve data access consistency during merges, reduce integration risk, and lay groundwork for future performance improvements.

Feb 1, 2025February 2025 focused on strengthening the LSM-tree merge framework and expanding the testing infrastructure to improve correctness, reliability, and business value of merge operations. Key results include a framework overhaul with stronger invariant checks, union-level handling, and enhanced snapshot encoding/decoding; propagation of IsMergeType across MergingRun and Merge; and the introduction of a comprehensive testing stack (LookupTree, MergingRunData, MergingTreeData) with resource-management checks and invariants coverage. These improvements reduce production risk, enable safer future optimizations, and accelerate issue detection in CI for merge scenarios.
