Khaled Tannir Big Data & Solution Architect Biography

Khaled is the author of Optimizing Hadoop for MapReduce.

This book introduces you to advanced MapReduce concepts and teaches you everything from identifying the factors that affect MapReduce job performance to tuning the MapReduce configuration. Based on real-world experience, this book will help you to fully utilize your cluster’s node resources to run MapReduce jobs optimally.

http://www.packtpub.com/learn-to-implement-and-use-hadoop-mapreduce-framework/book#overview

Khaled is the author of RavenDB 2.x Beginner’s Guide.

RavenDB is a second generation document database written in .NET, offering a flexible data model designed to address requirements coming from real-world systems. It is different from the other document databases around, as with RavenDB you can get up and running in a few minutes, and that includes grasping all the basics. It allows you to build high-performance, low-latency applications with ease and efficiency.

http://www.packtpub.com/ravendb-2-x-beginners-guide/book

Khaled is a technical reviewer for these books:

o Pentaho Analytics for MongoDB

o Developing Predictive Models Using R and PMML (in progress to be published in 2014)

Khaled has been working with computers since 1980. He began programming with the

legendary Sinclair Zx81 and after with all Commodore home computers products (Vic 20,

Commodore 64, Commodore 128D and Amiga 500).

He has a Bachelor's degree in Electronics, a Master degree in System Information Architectures in which he

graduated with a professional thesis and completed its education with a Master of Research degree.

He is a Microsoft Certified Solution Developer (MCSD) and has more than 20 years of technical experience

leading the development, implementation of software solutions and giving technical presentations. He now works

as an independent IT Consultant and has worked as an infrastructure engineer, senior developer, and enterprise /

solution architect for many companies in France and Canada.

With significant experience in Microsoft .Net, Microsoft Server Systems, and Oracle Java technologies, he has

extensive skills in online/offline applications design, system conversions and multi-language applications in both

industries Internet and Desktops.

He is always researching new technologies, learns about them and looking for new adventures in France, North

America and the Middle-east. He owns an IT and electronics laboratory with many servers, monitors, open

electronics board such Arduino, Netduino, RaspBerry Pi, and .Net Gadgeteer, and some Smartphone devices based

on Windows Phone, Android and iOS operating systems.

In 2012 he contributes to the EGC 2012 (International Complex Data Mining forum at Bordeaux University -

France) and presented, in a workshop session, his work on “How to optimize data distribution in a cloud

computing environment”. This work aims to define an approach to optimize using of Data Mining algorithms

such as k-means and Apriori in a cloud computing environment.

He aims to get a PhD in Cloud Computing and Big Data and wants to learn more and more about these

technologies.

He enjoys taking landscape and night time photos, travelling, playing video games, creating funny electronics

gadgets with Arduino /.Net Gadgeteer and of course spending time with his wife and family.
