SoftwareMill goes to Devoxx 2013

It is almost a tradition that a large representation from our company attends
Devoxx, the biggest Java conference in Europe.

This year we are going with a strong team of 7 people
(Maciek,
Jarek,
Jacek,
Paweł,
Tomek,
Adam and
Łukasz),
joined by some friends from the Warsaw JUG and others. (So expect an even larger
Polish representation!)

Let us know if you'd like to:

↠ talk about CodeBrag

↠ get a "I'm proud of my code" sticker (we'll have "I'm proud ..." or the colorful
"Chrum" t-shirts)

↠ find out more about SoftwareMill and how it is to work at a
fully distributed company

↠ chat about any of the technologies we are using (Scala, Akka, Java) (or
anything technology-related, in fact).

Moreover, I'll be giving two presentations at the conference:

ElasticMQ: a fully asynchronous, Akka-based Amazon SQS server

(Wednesday, 13:10-13:25, Room 9)
The quickie will be an introduction to using ElasticMQ when testing
applications which leverage SQS. We'll also see how to implement a fast http service using
Spray, Akka and Scala without a single blocking operation, and take a look at some
helpful constructs and patterns.

The ideal module system and the harsh reality

(Wednesday, 17:50-18:50, Room 9)
We'll go through some of the core properties that we might
want a good module system to have, and shortly see how current solutions corresponds
to these requirements. We'll also take a closer look at java packages, their
relation to module systems, and how we can improve modularity of our code today
using Veripacks or Ceylon.

See you on Devoxx!

Adam
