I have no experience with Riak, but I once went to a conference (a very short while ago) and saw a presentation by a higher up of Basho (I won't disrespect the person by naming them), in short: It was a very generic, bland and positively abstract presentation about big data. Other presentations were highly technical, so I was excited to get to know Basho as well - I came out of that thinking "wtf was this guy talking about?". It's obviously not a reflection of what Basho stood for, or even what the individual in question stood for, but that's the only memory Basho has left in me.
- macintux 9y agoA shame you were left with that impression. For quite some time, from top to bottom, Basho had quite a reputation for solid technical talks. The distributed systems conference RICON was quite excellent. (Disclaimer: former Basho technical evangelist & engineer.) Suggestion for something much more meaty: https://youtu.be/3SWSw3mKApM https://youtu.be/3SWSw3mKApM
- nerpderp83 9y agoI suggest going through all the RICON talks, https://www.youtube.com/user/BashoTechnologies/playlists https://www.youtube.com/user/BashoTechnologies/playlists This talk on LVars by Lindsey Kuper blew my mind https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8dFO5Ir0xqY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8dFO5Ir0xqY
- macintux 9y agoLindsey rocks. She had a recent blog post hit HN. There's a fair number of RICON videos on Vimeo too. One of my all-time favorites from Joe Hellerstein: https://vimeo.com/53904989 https://vimeo.com/53904989
