Hi all,

Dave is giving a talk tonight at 6PM in Davis 338A at UB North as part of UB ACM's Spring Tech Talks. Details below!

Riak is an open-source, masterless, distributed key/value database. Riak replicates and retrieves data intelligently so it is available for read and write operations, even in failure conditions. You can lose access to many nodes due to network partition or hardware failure without losing data. Riak automatically distributes data around the cluster and yields a near-linear performance increase as you add capacity. In this talk, Dave will cover some technical details of how Riak works under the hood, and why you might want to consider it as part of your architecture.

Dave Parfitt is a Software Engineer at Basho Technologies, where he works on Riak Enterprise multi-datacenter replication.


See you tonight,

Nick DiRienzo

Sounds interesting, I will try to get over there. How long is this planned to go?

In the future can we get a little more advanced heads up?

It'll go until 6:50. But could run over depending on questions.

Sorry about the last minute email. I didn't think of sending it out to this lost until Dan bugged me about it and I only just got around to it.

Nick
