As previously noted, a few members of the Lokku engineering team attended the UKs first ScaleCamp last Friday and we have photographic evidence to prove it:
We were also proud sponsors of the booze served immediately before and during the round of lightening talks at the end of the day. Some of the effects may be apparent in the photo.
There was a lot of good content shared at the meeting. Sessions of particular note included a spirited discussion about available data graphing systems for application monitoring, a very convincing discussion of the benefits of a coat of Varnish, and last.fm discussing how to scale up by 5x in the very short term.
Big thanks to The Guardian for hosting in their very nice offices near King’s Cross. We look forward to attending (and sponsoring) bigger and better such events in the future.
Update: Ed’s slides from his talk about Lessons learned in doing lots with few people are up on Slideshare. Enjoy!
