Back from RailsConf Portland
(If you don’t know what I’m talking about, Ruby on Rails is a tech thing, a framework to deploy applications, and RailsConf is a conference regarding Rails.)
I’m just back from Portland (OR), where I’ve been at the RailsConf, organized by O’Reilly. About 1,700 attendees, lots of interest, a good community.
This is Joel Spolsky during his Keynote (here on wikipedia, and here his famous blog).
I’d like to share with you my pictures of the conference, and the pictures I’ve taken at the Message Board.
You may be able to find a Rails-related job, with those!
Here a picture at Amazon’s booth, with Tracy, Jenny and Phil. Lots of interest for AWS, of course. Loved it.
Amazon.com is hiring, so… if you have skills… check the open positions at Amazon.
RailsConf in Portland
Tomorrow I’ll go to Portland (OR), where on friday I’ll attend the RailsConf conference, together with other guys from Amazon.com.
There seem to be a lot of interesting projects and startup using Amazon Web Services in conjunction with Ruby, and RubyOnRails.
Here, starting tomorrow, you can see a full coverage of the event.
I’m particularly interested in learning more about:
- Fiveruns, a monitoring tool.
- EnterpriseDB, providing PostgreSQL services (based on AWS)
- MagLev, scaling solutions for Ruby.
- Rightscale, cloud computing management system (based on AWS)
- Heroku, a RubyOnRails platform (based on AWS)
well, see you there then!
