thoughts on Uber conf

I am attending  the uber conf  this week. Its been an interesting experience. I mainly attended sessions around a few themes  architecture and performace. I also attended a talk on scala.


Looks like everyone wanted to bash java and push their new fav language of the week. Scala does look good and I am looking fwd to using it, The functional language and concurrency seems very appealing.


The architecture talks were very intersting. Most of them focused on soft skills. architects also need to be hands on coder. cant get too far away from where rubber meets the rocks.


On the performance talks, there wasnt anything earth shattering, looks like the caching, reducing latency etc
