SUMMARY:Launchpad Foundations: Learning to Leverage a Component Architec

 ture

 losses in how Launchpad, a collaboration web service for the open-source

  community, used a Python component library from Zope 3 to help manage a

  large project. Discuss when the approach might be appropriate. Code exa

 mples include automatic REST web service generation.  Demonstrate how th

SUMMARY:Accelerate your Rails Site with Automatic Generation-based Actio

 n Caching

DESCRIPTION:Presented by Rod Cope (OpenLogic, inc.). Rails caching is di

 fficult and complicated.  It takes some work to set it up, but it's even

  harder to make sure you always clear the right cache when data gets cha

 nged.  This session demonstrates how to build an automatic generation-ba

 sed action caching mechanism built on memcached that can handle edits fr

 om any angle while guaranteeing that users never see stale data.
