Title: Cluster Computing using Raspberry Pi's and Apache Spark

In 10 minutes, I'm going to take you on a whirlwind tour of Apache Spark and cluster computing, as well as how to build your own micro big data computing cluster. I'll also show you how bad Scala code turned better can affect run time performance

Title: Rapidly fire up apps with Firebase

Building extraordinary user experience requires a database that is fast, scalable, supported by a world-class infrastructure that allows for clean code and needs less coding. Firebase provides just that – it is Google’s full stack NoSQL cloud platform that allows developers to build extraordinary realtime mobile and web apps.

In this session, Badi will take the audience through a brief introduction to Firebase followed by a live demo of building a real-world application using Firebase’s JavaScript SDK. The demo will showcase key features of the platform including realtime data synchronization, user authentication and session management, aiming to provide developers with a broad overview, yet with enough depth to quickly get up and running with Firebase for their current and future mobile and web projects.

Facilitator: Badi Sudhakaran

Badi is a developer with over 14 years of experience as a technologist and is currently based in Johannesburg, where he works as a tech lead for IQ Business, focusing on growing African businesses by solving problems and finding new and better ways of doing things.
