Congratulations to the Typesafe team. As a regular user of Scala, it is very welcome news to see the commercial arm succeed.
It's interesting to watch hybrid open-source/commercial enterprises develop. Getting the revenue stream right is tricky. I could really see the Typesafe Console growing to offer a whole host of monitoring around distributed computing. If Typesafe provided a wrapper around Hadoop that would be a welcome addition.
- thebluesky 14y agoGlad to see this. As a longtime Java developer I've found Scala has made coding for the JVM fun again.
- xwowsersx 14y agoFeel the same way. It's hard to go back to Java after Scala and, depressingly, at work I have to :( How do I convince my colleagues to embrace the possibility?
- thebluesky 14y agoBest bet is to write something awesome with it, and mention by the way that it's written in Scala
- pkolaczk 14y agoI'd rather have Typesafe reimplemented Hadoop using Scala (Akka) and wrap it in Hadoop API, than having Hadoop wrapped in Scala API. There are so many things wrong with Hadoop implementation internally, that a complete rewrite would make it good. ;)
