Tech Talk: "Casual" mass parallel data processing in Java

On March 1st, I was speaking on NoSQL day meet up in Minsk, Belarus.

"Casual" mass parallel data processing in Java may sound like a weird topic. Never less, sometimes you have to get job done and setting up computation grid infrastructure may not be a shortest path.

Back to school, tech meet-ups in Moscow this September

I’m regularly hosting meeting of technology enthusiasts in Moscow, and it is time to announce couple of events for this month. But wait, we are in Moscow so let me speak Russian.

Сегодня, я хочу сделать анонс очередных двух круглых столов IT энтузиастов в Москве.

13ое сентября

Вячеслав Воробьёв расскажет нам о проблеме автоматического планирования.

Проблема всплыла за кружкой пива после последней нашей встречи посвящённой автоматизации деплоймента и Вячеслав любезно согласился сделать ликбез посвящённый академическому подходу к проблеме.<

27ое сентября

Data persistence, lies, darn lies and delusions - флейм на тему СУБД от вашего покорного слуги.

Я хочу вспомнить о фундаментальных основах систем хранения данных: механизмы изоляции транзакций, WAL и undo логи, двух фазный коммит и paxos, BTrees и LSM-Trees – а потом хорошенько потролить NoSQL, SQL и вообще всё что как-то хранит данные.

Зарегистрироваться на круглые столы и подписаться на анонс мероприятий  можно по ссылке.
