A Groovy Kind of Java

Hot on the heals of Hans Dockters' talk on Gradle, Nati, from GigaSpaces, offered to tell us about additional ways Java developers can leverage Groovy.

Today's application stack is built out many popular OSS frameworks such as Cassandra, MongoDB, Scala, Play, Memcache, RabitMQ alongside the more traditional JEE stack which includes app servers such as Tomcat and JBoss. In this environment the same practices that we used to have in JEE centric world for managing and deploying our app are not relevant anymore. In this session we'll introduce a new open source frameworks based on Groovy for packaging your application, automating the scaling, failover, and more.

As always, the venue, food, drinks, and giveaways will be provided by our sponsors.

Some of you may remember Nati Shalom's talk about Building Realtime Analytics System with Cassandra and GigaSpaces from last year.

Note: we changed the speaker for this event from Uri Cohen to Nati Shalom due to scheduling issues.

I was looking for an approach to developing a REST test system in Java, and this was exactly what I was looking for. Thanks, Nati!
