Presentation and Speaker- Aggregations:

Nik Everett is a full time contributor to Elasticsearch and works from his basement in Raleigh. Before they closed he also used to work from hipster coffee shops around Raleigh. He misses fancy coffee but doesn't miss their typically terrible internet access.

Nik will talk about how Elasticsearch executes aggregations and the tradeoffs it makes. Expect to hear a little about how Elasticsearch stores its data with an emphasis on the columnar data structures used by aggregations. Expect to hear about how Elasticsearch executes search with an emphasis on the way it collects aggregation data and merges it to provide useful results.
