005 - An Introduction to Stasis

Hi All,

After a few months off, we've got another meetup on the calendar. We'll be gathering at BashoWest on November 7th for a talk about Stasis. As you'll learn at the meetup, Stasis is a novel approach to storage that has large implications for developers tasked with building flexible distributed systems.

As usual, Basho will cover the pizza and beer. Bring your notebooks. And please remember that seats are limited, so register early and release your seat if you can't make it.

See you in a few weeks.
