Nem, Very nice! I have bookmarked the Grails web app. Do you have any comments regarding how development went? Any lessons learned to tell?
Nem, This would be a great case study for GatorJUG. Let's talk! /mike
I'm just about to reserve a venue for 12 months of 2013 on the second Wed of each month! <hint>Call for speakers...</hint>
That sounds good, Nem. Thanks. Of the three, the Grails app would be first case study choice, the Android app second and the Atmosphere app third. That is, unless you'd like to talk about them as 2 case studies: the Grails/Android G'Ville Events apps and the Atmosphere app. We get the best turnout with more standard presentations these days, rather than very unique topics.
The next GatorJUG meeting is Wed, January 9th.
Nemanja Nesic - NEM- said:
I'd be glad to talk about my projects. I have another project that i think would be very interesting to talk about. It is another Grails project that uses atmosphere https://github.com/Atmosphere/
Perfect. If you give me a bio and abstract, I'll do the rest. Second Wed of Jan is 1/9.
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.

AWS has announced the general availability of Amazon S3 Vectors, increasing per-index capacity forty-fold to 2 billion vectors. By natively integrating vector search into the S3 storage engine, the service introduces a "Storage-First" architecture that decouples compute from storage, reducing total cost of ownership by up to 90% for large-scale RAG workloads.

Naveen Mareddy and Sujana Sooreddy discuss the evolution of Netflix’s media processing observability, moving from monolithic tracing to a high-cardinality analytics platform. They explain how to handle "trace explosion" using stream processing and a "request-first" tree visualization, and share how to transform raw spans into actionable business intelligence.
