Data Engineering Capstone Project -- Bryan Bischof

Dec. 17, 2015

Project Description

Given unstructured log data from Aspera's ASCP transfer, one needs to parse these logs, and store them to a large key-value store(currently Redis). The current solution is a Python script that runs a series of regexes, and is deployed on Spark to a Mesos cluster for analysis. However, this script is highly inefficient and isn't designed to interact with a lambda architecture. In particular, it doesn't connect to a permanent data store, and second, it doesn't accept incoming streams, only batch upload and processing.

This project is to rewrite this script to do three things:

• pure scala implementation of these hundred-so regexs

Rough project steps

• I wget-ed all the articles from 2015 into a directory,
• use find | grep | awk to create a list of paths to files, save list to var
• loop over list of files and use cat | grep | sed to parse the files output to new files
• loop over new files use cat to concatenate files with parts into single transcripts

Bash Commands Run

Project Description

Aspera's ASCP is a transfer protocol that is especially useful for large data transfers over suboptimal networks. In particular, ASCP is a UDP based transfer with guarenteed delivery. FASPstream is a version of ASCP specifically for streaming data transfers. During a transfer of these types, a log file is produced that contains time-series data for

• bandwidth
• retransmission rate

# You are given a string s composed of letters and numbers, which was compressed with some algorithm. Every letter in s is followed by a number (possibly with leading zeros), which represents the number of times this letter occurs consecutively. For example, "aaaaaaaabbbbbbcc" would be given as "a8b6c2".

# Decompress s, sort its letters and return the kth (1-based) letter of the obtained string.

# Note: each letter occurs in s no more than 251 times.

# Example

# Expand_It("a2b3c2a1", 2) = "a"
