I just got back from the 2010 QCon SF conference. It was a very exciting week filled with great and some not so great talks. As usually happens after a conference, I am filled with new ideas and excited about how we can apply what I heard to our work at Edmunds. Sometimes the ideas one comes away with work and sometimes they don't, regardless one always learns something new and trying new ideas even those that don't work teaches you valuable lessons.
Over the course of the next week I'll be covering "What I learned at QCon" focusing on the following:
- Software Design
- Pretotyping Rocks
- Infrastructure
- Continuous Deployments
Each post will cover several speakes as well as discuss thoughts for how to apply what I heard to Edmunds.
