Hi folks, I'm talking about Cassandra at the first ever Stack Overflow Dev Days conference in Sydney on October 26 http://devdays.stackoverflow.com/sydney/ . I've only got 45 minutes but I'm going to storm through as much as I can about how things work at the cluster level and the read and write paths through a single node. May also get to the traditional Twitter clone example app.
I've just noticed that early bird pricing ends on Monday 29/08. If you miss out I have one voucher for $100 off that I would like to give away to someone form Australia or New Zealand. If you're from a startup or a contractor email me by Friday 2/9 and I'll chose the nicest sounding person :) If you would like to meet up I'll be in town the evening before at Cocktail Party on the 25th.
