Engine Yard Cloud Out Loud S01E16: LinkedIn
This week on Cloud Out Loud we talk with Baq Haidri, Senior Software Engineer at LinkedIn. Baq discusses how LinkedIn leverages JRuby, touches on her initial impression of Ruby when she encountered it three years ago, and explains why she loves programming and her work.
Other interesting info you might want to check out:
- LinkedIn Skills, a project written in JRuby
- Charles Nutter’s blog post on the JRuby 1.6.0 release and what’s coming next
- Baq’s presentation on JRubifying LinkedIn’s frontend from the JRuby SF Bay Area Meetup last year. Watch her presentation below. Also, if you’re in in the SF area, come out to the March 31, 2011 meetup at LinkedIn Mountain View. David Calavera will be presenting about Trinidad for the group.
