Jesse Newland is Giving the Following Talks
Rewriting GitHub Pages with Riak Core, Riak KV, and Webmachine
GitHub Pages, a feature allowing users to publish content to the web by simply pushing content to one of their GitHub hosted repositories, has had lackluster performance and uptime in the recent years. In this talk, Jesse will discuss the core requirements of the GitHub Pages application, why Erlang, Riak, and Webmachine were chosen for the development, and how they were used to fulfill those requirements now and for years to come with minimal development and operational maintenance.
Talk objectives: Demonstrate the use of Riak Core as a platform for application.
Target audience: Erlang developers interested in Riak, Riak Core and Webmachine.
