About reports
Andrey Kogun starts the meeting, introducing the speakers and proposing to continue communication in a day at the
Joker 2019 conference in St. Petersburg.
The first was Dmitry Konstantinov. To some extent, the report became a test run before its presentation on the first day of the conference on Friday. Based on his practical experience, he talked about the problems with
Apache Cassandra , suggesting possible options and solutions.
In the second part, Mitya Alexandrov presented an updated version of his report on
MicroProfile , which he read exactly one year ago at
Joker 2018 . There were some changes in the specifications over the year, so the material was updated and supplemented. The previous version of the report
ended with the mention of MicroProfile 2.0 , the current version has already
been continued to MicroProfile 3.1 .
I looked with interest at the updated version of the report - a year ago I saw its previous version at
Joker 2018 and even revised it recently when writing an
article .
The reports aroused great interest and discussion during the break and after the meeting. Live communication, backed up by traditional tea and coffee buns, did not leave anyone indifferent.
Presentations by
Dmitry Konstantinov and
Mitya Alexandrov , the video will appear soon (see links below).
