Production Projects

Columnar Real-Time Analytical Database (OLAP) CLASSIC

ClickHouse

Blazing-fast analytical database; processes queries orders of magnitude faster than traditional row-based engines by scanning only relevant columns with SIMD vector instructions.

High-Throughput LLM Inference & Serving Engine AI-AGENT

vLLM

The gold standard for production LLM inference; invented PagedAttention to eliminate memory fragmentation in GPU KV caches, delivering 2x-4x throughput over standard Hugging Face runtimes.

All-in-One JavaScript Runtime & Toolchain CLASSIC

Bun

Radical reimagining of JS tooling; written from scratch in Zig on WebKit JavaScriptCore for 4x faster module resolution, zero-transpilation TypeScript, and native SQLite speed.

Time-Series SQL Database CLASSIC

QuestDB

High-performance columnar time-series database engineered for financial tick data, IoT metrics, and real-time telemetry. Uses a zero-garbage-collection Java execution engine with C++ SIMD vectorization and lock-free out-of-order data ingestion.

Multi-Threaded In-Memory Key-Value Store CLASSIC

Dragonfly

Next-generation drop-in replacement for Redis and Memcached. Delivers 25x higher throughput and sub-millisecond tail latency by utilizing a modern shared-nothing multi-threaded architecture with Linux io_uring asynchronous I/O and custom memory serialization.

Local AI Inference Engine AI-AGENT

Ollama

Ultra-lightweight local LLM runtime; Go REST daemon manages model distribution while C++/llama.cpp provides optimized GPU compute.
