Delphix tech talk; 6-7pm 1/17; EEB 125

The computer industry is focused on building cloud services.

Delphix is bringing that last major component to the cloud. Come hear about the technology that the team at Delphix is building from Adam Leventhal, Delphix Architect and one of the inventors of DTrace. There will be a particular focus on ZFS — the filesystem at the heart of the Delphix.

Hacking is core to how we build at Facebook. Whether we’re building a prototype for a major product like Timeline at a Hackathon, creating a smarter search algorithm, or tearing down walls at our new headquarters, we’re always hacking to find better ways to solve problems. In the Hacker Cup, programmers from around the world will be judged on accuracy and speed as they race to solve algorithmic problems to advance through up to five rounds of programming challenges. This is your chance to compete against the world’s best programmers for awesome prizes and the title of World Champion.
