ABOUT THE SPEAKERS AND PRESENTATIONS:

Monang ("Mo") Setyawan is a long time Software Engineer at Google Mountain View, where he works on proprietary tools, technology, and infrastructure for fraud detection at Google. In "Resilient Software in Practice," Mo will detail techniques and lessons he's learned the "hard-way" for designing, building, releasing, and monitoring resilient applications and services at "Google-scale." Mo has deep expertise in parallel computing, search engine infrastructure, distributed tracing/profiling, and microservices. When not pushing applications and services to production, Mo tries to fulfill his childhood dream of becoming a pro footballer and/or musician. Presentation in Bahasa Indonesia.

Jason Wangsadinata, a Systems Engineer at Brankas, will present "An Introduction to Gunk," introducing the open-source Gunk tool. Jason will showcase how to use Gunk to rapidly build REST and gRPC APIs/services in Go (or any other language!) leveraging tools from the Protobuf/gRPC ecosystem. Jason works daily building transactional banking software at Brankas, and previously built backend infrastructure at Traveloka. Jason is a long time Go, Python, and Java developer and is able to chew through any API or microservices development in mere minutes. Jason gained a passion for programming while at Wesleyan University, and changed from a Music major to a Mathematics and Computer Science major and graduated with honors. Jason is still passionate about music, and plays regularly in Jakarta. Presentation in Bahasa Indonesia.

ABOUT GOJAKARTA:

GoJakarta is a monthly meetup group focused on examining applications, frameworks, and technologies written in the Go programming language. The Go programming language is an open source project to make programmers more productive. Go is expressive, concise, clean, and efficient. Its concurrency mechanisms make it easy to write programs that get the most out of multicore and networked machines, while its novel type system enables flexible and modular program construction. Go compiles quickly to machine code yet has the convenience of garbage collection and the power of run-time reflection. It's a fast, statically typed, compiled language that feels like a dynamically typed, interpreted language.

ABOUT SCALE:

Scale is a monthly meetup group focused on the art and practice of building large scale computing infrastructure in Jakarta, Indonesia. Scale invites speakers from around Asia and the World to share their knowledge and experience with the greater technology community in Indonesia. Scale's technical topics cover everything from Microservices, DevOps, Programming Languages, Development Processes, Systems Architecture, Automation, Deployments, Coordination, Configuration Management, Cloud Computing Infrastructure, to other technical aspects associated with building and running applications that scale to thousands, millions, or hundreds of millions of active users.
