Clojure Berlin
Details
Hello everyone,
This month we are being hosted by Nubank — thanks to the generous hosts!
The following talks are planned:
• Feeding Nubank's data lake: a short story about about datomic at scale (Philip Mates from Nubank, @pmatey) (short talk)
A brief journey into how Nubank's Berlin office uses clojure, datomic, core.async, and more to solve data-related problems.
• Examining, improving, and benchmarking clojure.core/memoize (Giorgio Valoti)
=clojure.core/memoize= is a handy function when you want to avoid
paying the cost of invoking a function over and over again. However,
the current implementation is subject to race conditions. In this
talk we show an alternative approach that eliminates possible race
conditions, and benchmark our solution against the current
implementation to assess potential performance hits.
Giorgio Valoti (@giorgio_v) is a software engineer currently working
at Red Pineapple Media
• Building a bridge between non-programmers and Clojure applications (Kirill Chernyshov)
Sometimes clojure application have to provide a way to adjust business logic to non-technical people. There are not so many options to do that. I would like to present a library that should give business developers a simple and intuitive expression language for changing the rules of business logic on the fly.
Kirill (https://twitter.com/DeLaGuardo) is a Lead Clojure Engineer at Xapix GmbH. When he's not busy coding... wait, he is always busy coding. Sometimes even riding a sport bikes.
