London Ruby User Group:Processing Tweets at the BBC

Processing Tweets at the BBC
Sean O'Halpin will be telling us about some work at the BBC involving Twitter:

"I'll be talking about how we're using Ruby to process tweets in realtime to discover inbound links to the BBC Zeitgeist and how we're reading the Twitter Firehose (about 1000 tweets/sec = about 90 million a day) and storing the data in Amazon S3. There'll be a bit about Hadoop and Map/Reduce too."

ABOUT SEAN O'HALPIN

I’m currently a Senior Software Engineer in Audio and Music Interactive at the BBC in London, UK specialising in Ruby and message queues.

ABOUT THE LONDON RUBY USER GROUP

LRUG is the London Ruby User Group; a community of ruby developers based in and around London. We meet up at least once a month; on the 2nd Wednesday of the month we have meetings with talks, demos and such-like and then we have pub-based meetups organised on an ad-hoc basis (roughly half-way between meetings).
