• What we'll do
Great news! We've got Lightbend's very own Duncan DeVore coming back to Ottawa to give his long-awaited SMACK stack talk! Duncan DeVore is an Author and one of Lightbends top Software Engineers! In this talk, Duncan will help you better understand how Lightbend open source projects fit together and why the traditional enterprise organization is now seeing a needed utilize these same systems (or patterns) that the web-scale companies have already pioneered to solve similar use-cases in their environment. In the first part of the talk, we will provide a technical overview the components of the “SMACK” stack and talk about building a modern, cloud-native architecture that is Responsive, Elastic, Resilient, and Message Driven.
Covering a few of the key principals including
- Microservices (Web, Mobile, IoT)
- Durable Messaging Backplane
- Data Persistence & Storage
- Stream Processing
- Machine Learning & Deep Learning
- Intelligent Management
- Cluster Analysis
- Infrastructure (On-Premise, Cloud, Hybrid)
This discussion will also dive into one of the core components of the SMACK stack ~ Akka, which is an advanced toolkit and message-driven runtime based on the Actor Model that helps development teams build the right foundation for successful microservices architectures and streaming data pipelines. This discussion will be led by, Duncan DeVore, who specializes in the design and implementation of distributed systems using the tenets of the Reactive Manifesto with Scala, Akka and the Lightbend stack. He believes in responsible design through functional programming with an abundance of test coverage. He loves to code, present and help others work through the challenges of distributed computing.
