Spotify's Reliable Event Delivery System

Data Science Serbia Meetup is introducing Igor Maravic, Software Engineer at Spotify who will talk about Spotify's event delivery system.

This event delivery system is one of the foundational pieces of Spotify’s data infrastructure. It has a key requirement to reliably deliver complete data with a predictable latency and make it available to Spotify developers via well-defined interface. Delivered data is than used to produce Discover Weekly, Fresh Finds, Spotify Party and many other Spotify features. Currently 1M events is delivered via Spotify's event delivery system every second. To seamlessly scale the system we designed it as a set of micro-services. System is using Google Cloud Pub/Sub for transferring vast amounts of data between Spotify's data-centres. This talk is going to cover the design and operational aspects of Spotify’s reliable event delivery system.

About Lecturer: As a part of the band Igor worked on developing and maintaining Spotify's gateways, migrating mobile clients from using custom TLV protocol to HTTP, designing and developing continuous delivery infrastructure, stress testing services... Currently he's living and breathing event delivery.
