Hey everyone - our next PDXCloud meetup is in a couple of weeks.
This will be our 2nd birthday! Come celebrate two years of PDXCloud with us. There will be cake! And of course pizza, beer, and other refreshments.
Right now we have one talk lined up that I'm pretty excited about. If anyone has a second topic, I'd love to get another one on the agenda. Shoot me an email at [email protected].
Our first topic is presented by Ryan Dearing: Building a Fault Tolerant API with Hystrix
See how Bodybuilding.com utilizes Hystrix to scale a REST API beyond a hundred million requests every day. Learn how we use Hystrix to build a distributed system that is both fault and latency tolerant. We will discuss the bulkhead and circuit breaker patterns used by Hystrix to provide a resilient and fast API.
Hope to see you there, and let me know if anyone else wants to do a talk!
As always, doors will open at 6:30PM, so feel free to show up a little early to grab food and drink and do some socializing. Presentation will start at 7PM. |

The second talk will be an "Intro to Splunk", presented by Jason LaPier, Lead Architect of Elemental Technologies' Cloud platform.
On the surface, Splunk is a log aggregator, but once you start to go beyond that, you can see the potential and the power of Splunk as a data management tool. I’ll briefly go over the components and architecture of Splunk, some of the key features and product offerings, and then dive into a demo of how it works and how we use it at Elemental. Centralized logging is a critical tool in a cloud-based environment, as it lets you review the history and analysis of data from instances that have come and gone at any time.
