Spotify's Reliable Event Delivery System
Spotify’s event delivery system is one of the foundational pieces of Spotify’s data infrastructure. It has a key requirement to reliably deliver complete data with a predictable latency and make it available to Spotify developers via well-defined interface. Delivered data is than used to produce Discover Weekly, Fresh Finds, Spotify Party and many other Spotify features. Currently 1M events is delivered via Spotify's event delivery system every second. To seamlessly scale the system we designed it as a set of micro-services. System is using Google Cloud Pub/Sub for transferring vast amounts of data between Spotify's data-centres. This talk is going to cover the design and operational aspects of Spotify’s reliable event delivery system.

Distributed Systems Theory for Practical Engineers
Distributed Systems are a complex topic. There's abundant research about it but sometimes it is hard for a beginner to know where to start. I would like to outline the main concepts of distributed systems, so the interested person can have a clear path on how to start their own research as well....

Causal Consistency For Large Neo4j Clusters
In this talk we'll explore the new Causal clustering architecture for Neo4j. We'll see how Neo4j uses the Raft protocol for a robust underlay for intensive write operations, and how the asynchronous new scale-out mechanism provides enormous capacity for very demanding graph workloads. We'll...
