Hands-On with Riak CS

Hi All,

We're really excited to announce a hands-on Riak CS Workshop at Basho's HQ, just in time for Thanksgiving!

Riak CS (http://docs.basho.com/riakcs/latest/) is an S3-compatible, multi-tenant storage platform built on top of Riak.

Please join us to learn more about Riak CS in a hands-on, tutorial style.

As usual, food and refreshments will be provided by Basho.

All you need to bring is:

• yourselves (and friends)

• your laptop (unless you prefer to just watch, but you might get bored)

• your potential use cases and hard questions

7:15 - 7:35 - Introduction to Riak CS

Tom Santero (Technical Evangelist, Basho)

We will begin at 7:15pm with a brief but comprehensive overview of Riak CS from both an operational and architectural perspective. This will get you up to speed on what Riak CS is, how it works and why you would want to run it in production. There will be time for Q&A.

7:35 - 9:00 - Hands-on with Riak CS

Tom Santero (Technical Evangelist, Basho)
Reid Draper (Software Engineer, Basho)
Chris Meiklejohn (Software Engineer, Basho)

Following the intro to Riak CS we will launch full steam into the hands-on portion of the event.

All attendees will be provided access to a Basho's live Riak CS cluster during this session, where we will walk through user level operations using s3cmd and other S3-compatible clients.

Not only will we demo a sample app we've built on top of Riak CS, but bonus points for individuals/groups who want to pair up and hack out an app of their own.

Members of the Basho Team will be on hand to answer any and all questions during this time.

We look forward to seeing you there!

Tom
