Biography
Sahil Tikale is a Web3 Researcher at the Decentralized Systems Research (SDSR) in Murray Hill, NJ. Sahil's research interests include designing, building, and evaluating cloud-scale systems. He recently completed his PhD in Computer Engineering from Boston University, where his research focused on the efficiency of multiplexing bare-metal servers at scale in a multi-cloud environment. His research explored the use of market-based economic models for bare-metal resource allocation between clusters hosted within a co-located data center. Before pursuing his PhD, Sahil accumulated over a decade of industry experience, during which he managed critical 24/7 IT infrastructure for clients across the Banking, Government, and Research sectors in India, Singapore, and the USA.
