During June 8–9, 2011 Altoros organized two conferences that featured guest speakers from Engine Yard, the leading developer of cloud platforms for Ruby on Rails.

Randall Thomas, Business Development Director at Engine Yard, and Wilson Bilkovich, Ruby Technologist for Engine Yard, presented JRuby and the latest Engine Yard’s cloud solutions to Belarusian Java and Ruby-on-Rails developers.

Our Ruby-on-Rails and Java colleagues have also actively participated in the events. Sergey Bushik, a Senior Java Developer at Altoros, delivered a presentation called “Opening a Fabulous World of Cassandra.” Sergey elaborated on the NoSQL concept, the key-value paradigm, column-oriented systems, and Cassandra integration with Hadoop.

We are very grateful to all of the speakers for finding time in their busy schedules to talk to Java and Ruby-on-Rails experts and enthusiasts.
