Presentations
Portable Cloud Storage with jclouds
Key/value stores are the most common storage offerings in the cloud today. While conceptually similar, BlobStores present different programming models and consistency models that must be considered in
application design. After this session, you'll understand these differences, and know how to use jclouds to avoid cloud lock-in and increase testability without restricting access to cloud-specific features.
DIY NoSQL: Spinning up services with Whirr
Whether it's HBase, Cassandra or one of the many others, you've probably already heard about NoSQL. Perhaps you have a continuous test flow dependency, yet are concerned about learning curve or
infrastructure required for the NoSQL store you need.
Hands on Cloud Storage
You may have heard about cloud storage offerings such as Amazon S3, OpenStack or Microsoft Azure. While conceptually similar, these offerings have different apis and behaviour that place the “write once
(run|test) anywhere” mantra at risk. The jclouds open source java and clojure library aims to eliminate cloud vendor lock-in, exposing easy to use, portable, and powerful APIs. Bring your laptop, armed with
latest revs of Eclipse, git, and maven, and we'll walk through getting you setup to hack jclouds java or clojure BlobStore applications in a collaborative fashion.
