A Guide to Qihoo 360’s Important Open‑Source Projects

Qihoo 360 is widely recognized for its network security achievements, but it also maintains a rich portfolio of open‑source technologies across various domains.

Cloud Computing Jepsen – a distributed system verification framework (https://github.com/jepsen-io/jepsen) used to test databases such as VoltDB, CockroachDB, Galera, MongoDB, and etcd. huststore – a high‑performance distributed storage service offering KV, hash, set, and sorted‑set data structures with binary KV support, capable of 100k QPS (https://github.com/Qihoo360/huststore). Poseidon – a log search engine that can query massive datasets (up to trillions of entries) within seconds, reducing storage and compute costs (https://github.com/Qihoo360/poseidon).

Artificial Intelligence XLearning – a deep‑learning scheduling platform built on Hadoop YARN that integrates TensorFlow, MXNet, Caffe, Theano, PyTorch, Keras, XGBoost and provides a unified job submission interface (https://github.com/Qihoo360/XLearning).

Databases pika – a Redis‑compatible storage system supporting large memory footprints (>50 GB) and reducing startup time and replication overhead (https://github.com/Qihoo360/pika). MySQL Sniffer – a MySQL protocol‑based packet capture tool that logs queries, execution time, user, and other details for debugging and monitoring (https://github.com/Qihoo360/mysql-sniffer).

Frontend / Node Chimee – an H5 video player framework supporting MP4, M3U8, FLV and plugin‑based extensibility (https://github.com/Chimeejs/chimee).
