Spent the last 9 months on a startup I co-founded, https://carbonstate.com https://carbonstate.com We are producing an ECM system aimed at the SMB market. The short feature list is: - Configuration driven; no coding required to create management systems - Complex schema support ( nested and linked types ) - Automatic data entry/modification form creation - Workflow support - Compiled templating with fragments and support for reverse proxy cache invalidation on data change - Horizontal scaling ( nanomsg based node interactions ) - Vertical scaling ( new event based http server translating http messages to nanomsg ) - Script driven installer system with UI ( smaller and more flexible than NSIS - <100k installers containing XML parsing and a general purpose scripting language ) Kickstarter to fund finishing the project is in the works. Before the startup, at the beginning of the year, I rewrote a new version of Apache Avro in C, C++, Perl, and Java to replace all of the event logging within Amazon. The code runs billions of times per day across 4 major web platforms and 20+ component systems.
