Talks

Martin Sústrik -- The Future of Messaging
View Recording @ Skills Matter

In this talk Martin Sústrik investigates challenges encountered when moving messaging from the tightly controlled centralised environment of the enterprise datacenter into the loose multi-party decentralised environment of the Internet.

The talk will show how 0MQ solves some of these problems and introduce you to SP, a protocol initiative focused on systematically solving these challenges.

Andy Piper -- Introducing MQTT
View Recording @ Skills Matter

MQ Telemetry Transport is a protocol designed particularly with the Internet of Things in mind - it's small, lightweight, and works well over unreliable or low-bandwidth networks. Andy Piper will present an overview of where MQTT came from, how to use it, and the many places in which it is already being used.

Marek Majkowski -- Realtime web: Not there yet!
View Recording @ Skills Matter

The first WebSockets draft, which tried to bring realtime to the web, was released almost two years ago and is still a mess. Various opensource projects have tried to fill the gap, yet although progress has been undoubtedly been made, they are still mostly unusable for serious applications.

This talk will look at messaging for web apps, explain why even WebSockets that worked would solve only a part of a problem, and set out what can be done about it.

Julien Genestoux -- PubSub for the web : PubSubHubbub, XMPP and Superfeedr

The web was built around a client to server architecture. It currently relies on “polling” pattern in which the clients have to ask the servers about the data they care about
