Hello GatorJUG!
It's time to ramp up and have our first meeting of 2015!
For this meeting, we'll go over upcoming events, talk about what's new in general and we'll have an interesting discussion about Carol McDonald's article "How to Use SQL, Hadoop, Drill, REST, JSON, NoSQL and HBase in a Simple REST Client".
Of course, expect some tasty pizza and drinks. Please RSVP and bring a friend.
As always, I hope to see you there!
Mike
PS - Carol's article is also published on DZone. If you get the chance, vote it up! And, if you're not familiar with DZone, they're a big Codetown supporter and very informative publication you'll benefit from reading.
Codetown is a social network. It's got blogs, forums, groups, personal pages and more! You might think of Codetown as a funky camper van with lots of compartments for your stuff and a great multimedia system, too! Best of all, Codetown has room for all of your friends.

By Stefania Chaplin, Azhir MahmoodSoftware development is much different today than it was at the beginning of the Space Shuttle era because of the tools that we have. But the art and practice of software engineering has not progressed that much since the early days of software development. Compilers are much better and faster, and debuggers are now integrated into development tools, making the task of error detection easier.
By Ben LindersIn an engaging talk at QCon London 2025, Louis Ryan, CTO of Solo.io and co-creator of Istio, addressed the complexities of hybrid cloud-native networking. He emphasized intentional assembly of network components, critical evaluation of tools, and treating networking as a primary focus to ensure reliability, observability, and security in today's intricate enterprise environments.
