Apache Cassandra Use Case by Gnip #2

Closed bmgentile closed 11 years ago

bmgentile commented 11 years ago

Hello DOSUG organizers,

For your March 5th meetup, I'd like to purpose having Gnip speak about their Apache Cassandra Use Case.

Abstract Over the last five months we have incorporated Apache Cassandra into our historical social media delivery product. In this time, we have had moments of joy and moments of pain. Our hope is to share some of what we learned, so your own experience with Cassandra might have more joy and less pain. While not intended to be an introduction to Cassandra, this talk could serve to provide an overview for those familiar with other contemporary data stores.

Team Gnip The Gnip historical team is responsible for archive and delivery of our historical social media corpuses while navigating the tightrope of privacy compliance. We have the joy of working on high throughput high volume data problems that strain both our tools as well as our minds.

Thanks for submitting this, @bmgentile. It sounds great to me. If I could hear from a couple of other board members, we can move forward.

To confirm, we are thinking of this as a 50-minute talk. Does that sound like it will work for you?

bmgentile commented 11 years ago

Hi Tim; a 50-minute talk does work for us. Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you and the board.

tlberglund commented 11 years ago

Super. We'll consider you booked!

I'd like to leave a belated "Nice!" on this proposal. Excited to have @bmgentile delivering a talk at DOSUG!

I did a little updating, but @danhillenbrand can you double check I got all the appropriate details into the http://meetup.denveropensource.org/events/100775142/ event?

@bmgentile What's a good bio for you that we can use for the night's talk? Something from here?: http://www.linkedin.com/in/bradygentile

Or if it is one of the Gnip folks speaking, can you have them post a bio here?

bmgentile commented 11 years ago

Sure thing! The speaker is going to be Nick Matheson and I will reach back out here with a bio ASAP. Thanks Matt.

danhillenbrand commented 11 years ago

I've updated dosug's site to include Nick Matheson as presenter. Will update with his bio when it's ready. Thanks everyone! http://meetup.denveropensource.org/events/100775142/

Do we have Nick's GitHub handle handy, @bmgentile ? Wanted to thank him publicly here!

bmgentile commented 11 years ago

Sorry, I just saw this! I do have his handle: https://github.com/nickmatheson/

Thank you very much for allowing Gnip to present :) I hope everything went well!
