The November 2015 meetup was held at the Postmark office on 21st. Here are some pictures.
The meet-up began with an introductory talk about the host company by Mithin. After that we went into the first talk, Speed up Mongo, by Gaurav Shah. The talk was about various lessons learned about Mongo performance in production. The talk also spawned many minor discussions via which we went into some other nitty-gritties of Mongo-Db. The slides are worth a look if you are planning to use Mongo for a project, and are curious about scaling.
The second talk was on Fraud Detection and Prevention in Ecommerce by Ketan Jain. This talk was about the many techniques that Postmark and similar companies apply to check fraud. An interesting and relatable talk, as many scenarios discussed are applicable in Indian scenario.
At last we had the RubyMine raffle in which the winner was Shrikanth. We ended the meet-up with a friendly flame-war on Elixir vs Ruby.
We had a great time at the meetup. Thanks to Shrikanth, Mithin an all the folks at Postmark for organising.
