Talk comments
The talk couldn't really get my attention. The goal and use cases of Cassandra weren't clear to me. Apparently it scales well, but what are the problems to tackle? How do you handle the implementation? How does it function compared to other systems?
For me, the implementation of specific problems is no goal for a presentation. It went very into detail how certain columns are named and how they are linked to each other, but it does not make a lot of sense if you don't have the context of the problem.
Some remarks
1. Please don't rush through your presentation. A quit pace makes listening more comfortable
2. Please explain the use cases. What is the problem? What is the goal? And how does your solution fit into?
3. Please don't commercialize your talk at the end. Focussing too much on your hiring doesn't make the audience feel comfortable about. If you mention it just once, there is no problem at all.
Hopefully you have the opportunity to give the talk another time, so you could try to improve some aspects.
Clear and excellent!
Super interesting; great talk!
Great general introduction to the automation problem in dev to production chain. The guy knows his subjetc :)
Good talk. I'll buy your book ;-)
Candid, entertaining, interesting and enjoyable.
It was very refreshing to see a talk (or uncon) without code and just a whiteboard. The subject of the talk was quite overlapping with the Event Sourcing talk of Mathias the second day, but you went more the conceptual way and Mathias took it to a code level.
Although I have read quite some material about DDD and CQRS, it always remains quite hard to understand how to get to implement CQRS/DDD. The Q&A afterwards helped a lot to have some handles how to start with CQRS.
