[Wylug-announce] WYLUG March 2010 Meeting - Developing headless web applications

[James Holden]

All,

The next WYLUG meeting is on Monday the 8th of March 2010 at Old
Broadcasting House.

This month we have a talk from Tim Nash on developing headless web
applications.

"Who needs or want humans to get in the way of your applications on the
web, more and more systems are moving to headless web service
applications, be it checking the latest exchange rates, or sending
information about an order to a third party for processing web services
should be the cornerstone. Many people have been tortured by SOAP based
web services fear not the solution is here with REST based applications,
this talk will look at developing REST applications, backend deployment
on linux systems use of Memcache, queueing systems like beanstalkd and
how you can have it all up and running in under an hour or so."

The talk will start at 7:00pm, but the room will be open for coffee, tea
and chat from 6:30pm. Afterwards, we usually go to The Fenton pub,
across the road from OBH, for more geeky chatter.
