Riak Core in Small Bites

One of the secret weapons of Erlang is Riak Core "a toolkit for building distributed, scalable, fault-tolerant applications", it's so secret that it's really hard to find information about it. 

In this talk we will start from a riak core project skeleton using rebar riak core template and one bite (commit) at a time we will add features until we have a working riak_core based application supporting commands, consistent hashing, clustering, handoff, quorum based reads and writes, coverage calls, riak_core_security and more.

All of this exposed through an HTTP API using Cowboy and Bullet.
