Come hear Canvas Networks' Timothy Fitz speak about real time on the web.  

Event Overview

How do you take advantage of real time features in a python web application? The real time web breaks fundamental assumptions in most web frameworks and servers. There are many infrastructure decisions to be made, such as do I use WebSockets or Long Polling? Node.js, Twisted or Tornado? How do real time code and classic request-response code talk to each other? This talk will answer these questions and teach you how to build scalable realtime features.

This talk will be the second talk of the Yipit Django Speaker Series.  The Django Speaker Series is an ongoing series of talks organized and sponsored by Yipit that runs in parallel to our usual monthly meetings.

About the Host: Yipit

Yipit runs a large Amazon Web Services infrastructure using the latest technology including: MongoDB, Nginx, jQuery, Gunicorn and of course Django.  We are strong believers in continuous integration and rapid deployment (at least daily) and are constantly looking to improve the way we design, develop, deploy and maintain our platform. That is why we created the Yipit Django Speaker Series.

Food and beer will be provided.
