I'd suggest:
- some knowledge on column based stores (so you have some idea about
what they're good at and what they aren't)
- getting a patch into drizzle. Get the source tree, look through
low-hanging-fruit or ask us for something easy to get started on.
- have a look some of the storage engine code in Drizzle... at this
point I'd possibly even recommend looking at my
lp:~stewart-flamingspork/drizzle/embedded-innodb branch as the most
"complete" and easy to understand storage engine (with some familiarity
with the embedded InnoDB API... a simple read through of parts of the
documentation for it should suffice).
