Dutch PHP Conference 2011
19 - 21 May 2011 at Amsterdam RAI

Reasonable intro to various concepts. Helgi's quite obviously got some valuable real life experience with this stuff. Would have liked more of the detail though - actual configuration and code. Felt more like a long talk rather than a workshop. Nice explanations of some of the architectures though.

Started fairly basic with the introduction to distributed applications, but got more interesting after the break as we moved onto gearman itself, with brief mention of other such tools (such as ZeroMQ, which will be covered in more detail tomorrow in Ian Barber's session on that topic)
