SpringOne 2GX 2012 Replays: Spring Data Repositories Deep Dive, Intro to Cascading

News | Pieter Humphrey | March 05, 2013 | ...

Spring Data Repositories – A Deep Dive

The repository abstraction layer is one of the core pieces of the Spring Data projects. It provides a consistent, interface-based programming model to allow implementing data access layers easily. The talk will start with a brief introduction and dive into best practices and implementation patterns later one.

We will conclude the session with an overview over what can actually be built on top of this generic repository abstraction and discuss integration hooks into Spring MVC and REST webservices.

Introduction to Cascading

Introduction to Cascading, an application framework for Java developers to deploy robust, enterprise-grade applications on Apache Hadoop. We'll start with the simplest Cascading program possible (file copy in a distributed file system) and progress in small steps to show a Java-based social recommender system based on Twitter feeds.

Introduction to Cascading, an application framework for Java developers to deploy robust, enterprise-grade applications on Apache Hadoop. We'll start with the simplest Cascading program possible (file copy in a distributed file system) and progress in small steps to show a Java-based social recommender system based on Twitter feeds.

The objective is to show how to work with “Big Data”, starting on a laptop with sample data sets, to generate JAR-based apps which can be deployed on very large clusters.

We'll show best practices for scalable apps in Cascading, how to leverage TDD features, etc.
