Presentation: "Teaching Machines to Fish: How eBay Improves Itself"Time: Friday 15:45 - 16:45 Location: Metro 1
Abstract: Building on previous QCon presentations about eBay's architecture, this
session will concentrate on how eBay leverages the power of the extended
eBay community to improve the user experience in a systematic and automated
way, combining both real-time and analytical approaches. It discusses
particular extended examples from systems monitoring and the search
experience, and highlights the various feedback loops that permit those
systems to learn and improve over time. It further discusses how
collecting, aggregating, and using this data can fit into a highly-scalable
and -available infrastructure.
