Next Generation Web Applications Workshop
The next generation of web applications using a cluster of resources instead of running on a single instances of a node in a cluster. To build this capability from scratch would be a costly proposition. Fortunately there is Apache Mesos. It abstracts the cloud and the data center and allows you to focus on your application needs. This is a workshop which will get into writing your first application which leverages a cluster of nodes.
To participate in this session you will need a computer with Java on it and for the best experience you will need a google account for Google Cloud Platform. An alternative is to use Vagrant with Virtualbox.
This will be a code focused workshop with focus on:
- Apache Mesos
- Protocol Buffers
- Java
