IMDB Coding Challenge

Note

Make sure that the correct host is selected in the configuration file. Also, provide the data path for Movies Title, Actors Details, and Principals in the configuration or place the files in already created folders.

Getting Started

The solution is containerized and automated using Dockers and Make. Use following commands to run the solution.

First, build and start the containers:

make build

Execute the solution:

make run

Execute test cases:

make run-testcases

Prune/Delete containers:

make stop

Execution time of the solution is aproximately 02 mins with 04 cores and 12G of memory.
The distribution graph is stored in resources/graph

Without Docker

To run the solution locally, open config file, comment out line 07 and remove the comment character from line 08.

python runner.py --Remote False

Approach Used

A top-down approach is used in combination with divide-and-conquer. First, the larger data frame is selected and reduced using the filters, then the calculations are performed on the reduced data to achieve better performance.
