Thanks for sharing Michael - Trecul looks to be the first OSS release from Akamai (at least on GitHub)?
While we're on the subject of high-performance alternatives to Hive for event analysis, we've been watching the development of Ben Johnson's behavioural db, called Sky, with interest:
Michael- Trecul looks cool. I'm doing something similar with Sky. I'm building an LLVM-based query language on it called EQL (Event Query Language) that's optimized for evented data. It does a lot of function rewriting to optimize loops and avoid heap allocations so it can crank through tens of millions of events per second. It's not finished yet but it should be done in the next couple weeks.
