Jan and Martin will give a slightly abridged preview of their ScalaDays Amsterdam talks.


Jan will begin by showing the lessons from running an "as-it-happens" machine classification system applied to exercise analysis. Jan will walk you through the problems and solutions that the Muvr team had to apply to get from a system that worked in laboratory conditions to a system that works in the world of unreliable networks. As a result, Jan will show the updated view of the lambda architecture.

Martin's talk aims to explain different parallel and distributed programming models, use cases, developer considerations, internals and important ideas and concepts behind mentioned frameworks in developer level detail. This includes description of the programming model, work it actually translates to in the background with regards to inter-process communication, how the data are partitioned and distributed, explanation of the coordination and fault tolerance, data locality and movement, query optimisations and more.


Both of the talks will offer a peek into how to get most value from the data using these approaches to employ machine learning algorithms demonstrated on a large scale sensor event processing application use case from practice (using Scala, Akka Cluster, CQRS, event sourcing, Spark, machine learning and more).


Bios

Martin Zapletal is a full-time software engineer, working for Cake Solutions Limited and using mostly Typesafe technologies. Both currently and in his previous occupations, he has had the opportunity to work with large amounts of data and events and participate on data analytics. Lately he has been focusing on distributed approaches to processing as well as machine learning and data mining in large volumes of data. Both these fields seem to increasingly important in the industry and the Typesafe stack and Reactive approaches provide very useful tools to solve these problems.


Jan Machacek is a passionate technologist with hands-on experience with the practical aspects of software delivery (architecture, quality, CI, CD); the project management approaches (applying the principles of agile project management); mentoring and motivating the engineering & business teams. He shares his expertise and passion for software as the editor of the Open Source Journal, regularly contributes to open source projects and speaks at conferences in the UK and abroad. Jan is the author of many open source projects (various Typesafe Activators, Muvr, Reactive Monitor, Akka Patterns, Akka Extras, Scalad, Specs2 Spring and others), books and articles.
