Danil Zburivsky

Danil Zburivsky has spent his entire career designing and supporting large-scale data infrastructure for enterprises across the globe. He started his career over 10 years ago at IT services company Pythian, managing open source database systems for a number of large-scale internet companies. He was an early champion of Hadoop, and while he managed a team that designed and implemented large-scale Hadoop analytics infrastructures, he wrote and published a book on Hadoop cluster deployment best practices. Anticipating the impact the public cloud would have on data infrastructure, he was an early adopter of cloud data services and has architected and implemented modern cloud-based data platforms on all three public cloud platforms for dozens of enterprises across the globe. An avid surfer, Danil lives in Halifax, Nova Scotia, and spends his free time riding the waves, 12 months a year.
