19:20 - Type Providers (by Antya Dev (https://twitter.com/AntyaDev))

In this session we’ll have fun with F# type providers! In most programming languages, accessing data is pain – you have to parse data into some object and then dynamically extract the value you are interested in, or you need to use some external tool for code generation. Type provides completely change the story by integrating data directly in the language. This makes it possible to access a wide range of data sources in a type-safe way with full IDE integration.

20:20 - F# + Akka.NET (by Akim Boyko (https://twitter.com/AkimBoyko))

Writing correct concurrent, fault-tolerant, scalable and yet simple applications is too hard. Most of the time it's because we are either using the wrong tools or the wrong level of abstraction. Actor based concurrency model (originated from Erlang) aims to change that. Akka.NET is a port of the popular Java/Scala framework Akka to .NET. Actors raise the abstraction level and provide a better platform to build correct concurrent and scalable applications.
