Discussion zone

Do you know the feeling when you raise your hand to ask a question and the track owner announces: “There’s time left for one question only”? Of course, he doesn’t pick you to ask that question. And then the speaker disappears behind the doors of the speakers’ room. To make sure this situation never happened, we set up dedicated discussion zones: special areas with a flip-chart for drawing, a couple of seats and an opportunity to pour a cup of coffee or two. The discussion zone opened right after the end of every talk. That was the place to chat with the speaker, ask questions about the talk or to get some advice on your projects.

Committee

Developer Advocate at JetBrains. Previously Product Manager at ZeroTurnaround, involved in development of JRebel and XRebel (tools for Java developers). Anton has been involved in professional development on Java for more than 10 years. His professional interests include everything about Java, but also other programming languages, middleware and developer tooling.

Oleg Anastasyev started his career in computer programming in 1995. He developed banking, telecom, public transportation software as well as software for the government of Latvia. Oleg is a leading developer at Odnoklassniki (http://ok.ru/) since 2007. His primary responsibilities as a Platform Team member are development of architectures and solutions for highly loaded as well as big data services, solving performance and availability problems. His last successful projects include NewSQL ACID compliant distributed fault-tolerant database and private cloud system to help manage the whole fleet of Odnoklassniki machines.

Gleb specializes in developing highly performant fault-tolerant systems, including high frequency trading platforms. In his spare time, Gleb likes to dabble in the sources of OpenJDK and doing various horrible perversions with the JVM.\r\n\r\nFor the last two years, Gleb has been working at Plumbr on a state-of-the-art APM solution.

Just as Charon from the Greek myths, Alexey helps people to get from one side to the other, the sides being Java and Big Data in his case. Or, in more simple words, he is a trainer at EPAM Systems. He works with Hadoop/Spark and other Big Data projects since 2012, forks such projects and sends pull requests since 2014, presents talks since 2015. His favourite areas are text data and big graphs.

Dmitry is a principal expert developer at T-Systems.
