[opensuse-project] [GSoC 2012] Introducing myself and the MongoDB driver project
Greetings, all.

I am a graduate student studying Information Technology in Ireland,
and I'm applying for this year's GSoC to work with the openSUSE
community. I would like to take this opportunity to briefly introduce
myself and the project.

The project I hope to work on is "Improving the MongoDB Destination
Driver for syslog-ng." As you know, syslog-ng, the leading logging
platform for log collection and management, has been storing logs in
MongoDB for quite a while, but due to a lack of thorough technical
documentation on the implementation details, it's been challenging to
improve the driver's functionality and speed. The goal of this project
is to enhance the MongoDB destination driver for syslog-ng, to make it
more robust, scalable and performant. One of the major tasks is to
convert 'upserts' to 'inserts', which would make it possible to
introduce support for inserting messages in bulk, further reducing the
load on the database, and slightly reducing network traffic too.

My application on melange is here:

Comments and feedback are always welcome. I'm confident that I will
complete this project successfully and push my technical skills to the
next level. I look forward to joining the awesome openSUSE community!

Best regards,
Eun Kyung
