The article also discusses Oath's Apache-based grid infrastructure and her early work with YARN, HDFS, and Hadoop. ### Source excerpt yahoodevelopers: Kuhu Shukla (bottom center) and team at the 2017 DataWorks Summit By Kuhu Shukla This post first appeared here on the Apache Software Foundation blog as part of ASF's "Success at Apache" monthly blog series. As I sit at my desk on a rather frosty morning with my coffee, looking up new JIRAs from the previous day in the Apache Tez project, I feel rather pleased. The latest community release vote is complete, the bug fixes that we so badly needed are in and the new release that we tested out internally on our many thousand strong cluster is looking good. Today I am looking at a new stack trace from a different Apache project process and it is hard to miss how much of the exceptional code I get to look at every day comes from people all around the globe. A contributor leaves a JIRA comment before he goes on to pick up his kid from soccer practice while someone else wakes up to find that her effort on a bug fix for the past two months has finally come to fruition through a binding +1. Yahoo - which joined AOL, HuffPost, Tumblr, Engadget, and many more brands to form the Verizon subsidiary Oath last year - has been at the frontier of open source adoption and contribution since before I was in high school. So while I have no historical trajectories to share, I do have a story on how I found myself in an epic journey of migrating all of Yahoo jobs from Apache MapReduce to Apache Tez, a then-new DAG based execution engine. Oath grid infrastructure is through and through driven by Apache technologies be it storage through HDFS, resource management through YARN, job execution frameworks with Tez and user interface engines such as Hive, Hue, Pig, Sqoop, Spark, Storm. Our grid solution is specifically tailored to Oath's business-critical data pipeline needs using the polymorphic technologies hosted, developed and maintained by the Apache community. On the third day of my job at Yahoo in 2015, I received a YouTube link on An Introduction to Apache Tez. I watched ## How to Make Your Web App More Reliable and Performant Using webpack: a Yahoo Mail Case Study DevFeed: [How to Make Your Web App More Reliable and Performant Using webpack: a Yahoo Mail Case Study]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Author: mikesefanov Published: 2017-12-13T18:27:36Z Content type: tutorial Language: en Sources: [Yahoo]() Topics: [Webpack](), [web applications](), [JavaScript](), [Development]() Tags: [case-study](), [css](), [dependency](), [developers](), [how-to](), [javascript](), [oath](), [web-app](), [webpack](), [yahoo](), [yahoo-engineering](), [yahoo-mail]() ### AI overview This Yahoo Mail case study explains how the team adopted webpack as its JavaScript module bundler to improve development cycles, reliability, and performance at scale. It describes webpack's dependency-graph and bundling model, plugin selection and development, Grunt integration, and bundle optimization before production deployment. ### Source excerpt yahoodevelopers: By Murali Krishna Bachhu, Anurag Damle, and Utkarsh Shrivastava As engineers on the Yahoo Mail team at Oath, we pride ourselves on the things that matter most to developers: faster development cycles, more reliability, and better performance. Users don't necessarily see these elements, but they certainly feel the difference they make when significant improvements are made. Recently, we were able to upgrade all three of these areas at scale by adopting webpack® as Yahoo Mail's underlying module bundler, and you can do the same for your web application. What is webpack? webpack is an open source module bundler for modern JavaScript applications. When webpack processes your application, it recursively builds a dependency graph that includes every module your application needs. Then it packages all of those modules into a small number of bundles, often only one, to be loaded by the browser. webpack became our choice module bundler not only because it supports on-demand loading, multiple bundle generation, and has a relatively low runtime overhead, but also because it is better suited for web platforms and NodeJS apps and has great community support. Comparison of webpack to other open source bundlers How did we integrate webpack? Like any developer does when integrating a new module bundler, we started integrating webpack into Yahoo Mail by looking at its basic config file. We explored available default webpack plugins as well as third-party webpack plugins and then picked the plugins most suitable for our application. If we didn't find a plugin that suited a specific need, we wrote the webpack plugin ourselves (e.g., We wrote a plugin to execute Atomic CSS scripts in the latest Yahoo Mail experience in order to decrease our overall CSS payload**). During the development process for Yahoo Mail, we needed a way to make sure webpack would continuously run in the background. To make this happen, we decided to use the task runner Grunt. Not only does Grunt
