DevoxxPL - Krakow, 2015 - Report¶
| conference | java |
This summer I’ve decided to attend my 1st foreign conference - DevoxxPL - Krakow, Poland, 22-25 June 2015. It was very important experience, because I wanted to compare it with our local Ukrainian conferences. Long story short - the quality is equal. Any conference is based on speakers (I’d like to be “Captain Obvious”). And even awesome conference location can’t make conference great.
So, I’ve attended the next talks:
Day 1¶
- “The Silver Bullet Syndrome” by Hadi Hariri
- “Tips and tricks for clean relational db schemas” by Clément Delafargue
- “JRebel under the covers - how is it even possible?” by Simon Maple
- “Corporate startup and Scala” by Filip Rogaczewski from Spartez
- It was really nice case study about building project with Scala. Pros&cons were “honestly” highlighted.
- “Refactoring to Functional” by Hadi Hariri
- “You’re an Architect…Now What?” by Nathaniel Schutta
Day 2¶
- “Why software developers should care about deployment and monitoring” by Michał Kosmulski from Allegro Group
- “Modern Java Component Design with Spring 4.2” by Juergen Hoeller from Pivotal
- “Make sense of your (BIG) data!” by David Pilato from ElasticSearch
- “Building an Asynchronous Reactive NoSQL SDK with RxJava” by Simon Baslé from Couchbase
- “Lazy Evaluations” by Venkat Subramaniam
- “Get Past the Syntax, The Real Scare is in the Semantics” by Venkat Subramaniam
Day 3¶
- “PubSub++ - few tips that make your life with kafka easier” by Krzysztof Debski from Allegro Group
- “Deep dive into Reactive Java” by Tomasz Kowalczewski from Codewise: - Slides - Github
- “Event Sourcing & Functional Programming - a pair made in heaven” by Paweł Szulc - Blog
- “Functional Programming: Technical Reasons to Adapt” by Venkat Subramaniam
- “Why I love Logstash and you should too” by João Duarte from ElasticSearch
Summary¶
This conference had a huge buzz around microservices. I’ve been inspired by some talks and planning to look deeper into:
- Elasticsearch
- Logstash
- Kibana
- RxJava
- and OMG ;-) Scala
