Geeknight 2022 | Edition 16 | Demystify Retail POS Systems

GeekNight is back!

Hello folks,

We are pleased to announce that we are back with the webinar version of GeekNight.

GeekNight is a monthly event hosted by ThoughtWorks Bangalore featuring tech talks from industry leaders.

Below are the talks lined up for this edition -

Session 1: POS backend systems
We are living in an era where the services and the interactions are getting online and virtual, however, when it comes to shopping there is nothing which can beat the experience of a physical store's offering to its customer. Store experience for a customer is supposed to be one of the imperative for the business stakeholders in order to grow and thrive in their sector and the role of technology in order to achieve the same is significant. Let me share the story of using technology in setting up the store infrastructure, deploying various services remotely to the stores and periodically syncing the store data through the pipeline.

Speaker: Germiya Jose

Session 2: Observability For Remote Devices
In the modern era, where every business is needed to be highly available, Observability of a system plays an important role. While observable services in cloud are a well known concept, observability for remote machines like Point Of Sale(POS/tills) is something new which is being experimented by retailers globally. Lets discuss how observability can be achieved for a remote device in this talk

Speaker: Divya Uppu
