Over six months, contributed to linkedin/datahub-gma by building and enhancing backend features focused on relationship management, data integrity, and performance. Developed advanced API endpoints and logical filtering for relationship queries, implemented ETag-based optimistic locking with AES encryption to secure concurrent data ingestion, and introduced SQL window functions for deduplication of historical relationships. Improved database efficiency by designing a shared schema metadata cache, reducing query load and startup latency. Leveraged Java, SQL, and Ebean ORM to deliver robust unit-tested solutions, emphasizing maintainability and scalability. Addressed runtime bugs and ensured backward compatibility, resulting in more reliable analytics and streamlined data operations.
April 2026 monthly summary for linkedin/datahub-gma: Implemented a Shared Schema Metadata Cache Across Databases by introducing a per-database URL cache so multiple entity types share a single cache per database. This design reduces database query load and cold-start latency without API changes for downstream services. Key operational mechanisms include pre-warming during ensureSchemaUpToDate, and a background refresh every 9 minutes with host-level jitter to avoid thundering herd scenarios. The feature extended caching to EbeanLocalRelationshipQueryDAO and included comprehensive tests (SharedSchemaCacheTest). Overall impact: information_schema queries dropped from ~150 per database per refresh to ~2 per database per refresh per host, dramatically lowering DB load and speeding up startup. Business value includes faster deploys, improved responsiveness for rich metadata queries, and better scalability across services. Technologies/skills demonstrated include Java/Ebean ORM caching, per-URL singleton cache design, cache warm-up strategies, background task scheduling, test isolation improvements, and observability enhancements.
