Out of the GATE with OWIN

How many web and application servers can you name that host .Net applications? How many web frameworks exist for building .Net applications? My bet is you can count either number on one hand. One of the goals of OWIN is to change that. We'll explore other goals of OWIN, the GATE library, and build an application that's portable across multiple application servers. I'll also show the power of modules built for OWIN.

#Title TBD

###Abstract How many languages and APIs can we squeeze into an hour? Let's take a tour through as many popular REST APIs (Dribbble, Trello, Twitter, GitHub, etc.) as we can by writing 5 minute applications in a variety of languages (JavaScript, Ruby, Python, C#, etc). We'll discuss some of the finer points of REST API design and why some languages are naturally better for consuming web services than others.

A new generation of databases is here and it's time to get serious about them. We've all spent a lot of time working around issues with eventual consistency in the name of horizontal scalability in MongoDB, Casandra, and CouchDB. But this new crop places a premium on transactions and ACID compliance while still being built on top of distributed system fundamentals so you'll be able to scale out as necessary.

In this session we'll talk about what sets these new databases apart from the old. You'll gain a basic understanding of the field, learning about Spanner, CockroachDB, CosmoDB, FoundationDB, and others. We'll consider when these databases might be a better choice than those you're used to and when you're better off sticking with the
