Amazon CTO Werner Vogels says that due to the slow rate of technology adoption, some of the problems faced by large shops like Amazon don't have solutions in commercial products, as a result Werner mentions that solutions have to be found by looking into research as well as doing a lot of in-house innovation to scale, and in this session presents some of their lessons learned which Werner says "may be important to think about when scaling your own systems." The session was recorded at QCon London, InfoQ's first conference held in March this year. We are also running another QCon in San Francisco Nov 7-9th.Technical Debt and Design Death

FYI, we are also running another architecture qualities track (where this video was recorded) at QCon San Francisco Nov 7-9, check it out!
Floyd,
Is there going to be more to this webinar? It cut off at a critical juncture :).
Cheers,
Zubin.
Hi Zubin, the sessions at QCon were only 60 min long and this video has 52 min, which including all the editing already done is likely to actually be the whole presenation minus one or two minutes which for some reason were missed. I'll have this looked into, but unfortunately it may not be resolved quickly.
Yes.
I was there @ QCon, London. Werner gave an amazing talk but he ran out of time. Definitely frustrating.
Hi Floyd! The presentation system DOSE NOT works smoothly in my laptop with my ASL about 2M brandwidth. Is it possible to let us to watch InfoQ's presentation in off-portal style?
Unfortunately not. We are planning a move away from flash streaming eventually which should hopefully help.

AHHH!
Terracotta is working with Red5 on clustered scalable streaming flash servers in OSS. You should TOTALLY wait!
I like the flash as opposed to some other technology like Real or quicktime. Why not just partner/or use YouTube? YouTube is proven and works across most platforms. There seems to be a problem with resuming the stream with the current player which has always annoyed me. Also why is there always that white pixel in the upper-left quadrant?
I would love to but I youtube doesn't seem to have any solution for securing our videos so that they can only be seen on InfoQ. We don't want these accessible at any URL other than one on InfoQ, or else we don't benefit from the investment of filming and distributing them.
Just to clarify, we are looking to move from flash streaming to flash progressive download with seek support (like google video).
I found this presentation so stimulating that I spent a day writing up a detailed summary of it, as part of a series I am writing on system performance and asynchronous architecture. See Asynchronous Architectures [4].
Brian Marick takes us through a quick tour of the most important values and challenges to adopting Agile successfully (they aren't the typical challenges and values we hear in the community).
The line between development and architecture is tricky. Does it exist at all? Is an ivory tower actually needed? There's a balance in the middle, but how do you move from developer to architect?
The word 'authority' sometimes produces an allergic response in hard-line agilists. Freedom and authority – both are bad if misused and both are good if used in right spirit for a noble cause.
"Getting Started with Grails" brings you up to speed on this modern web framework. Companies as varied as LinkedIn, Wired, and Taco Bell are all using Grails. Are you ready to get started as well?
Those familiar with only ITIL V2 often scoff at the thought that ITIL could serve as a governance framework for SOA. With ITIL V3, the focus of the framework shifted towards service-orientation.
SpringSource CTO Adrian Colyer discusses AspectJ, SpringSource's dm Server and tc Server products, OSGi and Scrum.
Heroku's Adam Wiggins talks about Rails, Background Jobs, Add-Ons, Ruby, and how Heroku manages to work around Ruby's inefficiencies using Erlang and other languages.
For Grady Booch the foundation of a good architecture is patterns, SOA being just one of many patterns. In this Second Life presentation, Booch attempts to bring more clarity on what architecture is.
