Cloudant CTO Adam Kocoloski to Present at Erlang Factory 2012 on Developing a Scalable "Big Data" Framework in Erlang for Apache CouchDB
(firmenpresse) - BOSTON, MA -- (Marketwire) -- 03/23/12 --
Adam Kocoloski, CTO, Cloudant, Inc., creators of the Erlang and Apache CouchDB-powered Cloudant Data Layer managed service for developers of data-driven web applications.
Adam is an Apache CouchDB developer and one of the founders of Cloudant. He is the lead architect of Cloudant's distributed data hosting platform.
The Erlang/OTP programming model and framework is a boon to developers trying to build robust, scalable servers. Immutable data structures, lightweight processes and message passing in lieu of shared state all encourage healthy server designs with predictable operational characteristics.
Adam will describe the inner workings of the Cloudant Data Layer's horizontal scaling and data distribution framework, and show how various pieces of the stack -- from the storage subsystem up to global data replication -- mirror the essential elements of a typical Erlang application.

The Erlang Factory () Conferences in San Francisco Bay Area and London are the major events in the Erlang calendar. The conferences draw all levels of the technological business community -- from owners and senior technical officers to developers and programmers. Previous delegates have been drawn from large corporations who are looking to Erlang to provide the capability to move into new products and services as well as individual consultants including Erlang in their list of competencies.
Cloudant, the company that builds and manages The Cloudant Data Layer, was founded in Cambridge MA in 2008 by three MIT Physicists. Frustrated by the available tools for managing and analyzing Big Data in their research, the founders set out to build a distributed, fault-tolerant, globally scalable data layer for applications, a platform that would free developers to focus on their applications knowing that they would never outgrow their data layer. Cloudant's service helps power thousands of applications in organizations of all shapes and sizes, from lone developers to the Fortune 100. The Cloudant team is composed of experts in distributed systems, database technology, web services, and Big Data analysis. It proudly counts Avalon Ventures and Y Combinator among its investors.
