Presentation: Tweet"Sharing Data, hiding Complexity (with Clojure and RDF)"
Functional languages raise the bar to what can be achieved with data systems. This talk will explain how a small team of Clojure developers approached the problem of a highly-coupled application infrastructure and provided easy access to the data within the risk domain of a large investment bank. We will show why Clojure made a good choice for providing consistent data feeds from inconsistent sources.
We will also describe some of the development patterns and processes that we used along the way.
Talk objectives: This talk aims to give an insight into some useful functional patterns and designs that can be applied in a complex business environment, and give added confidence to members of the audience who may be involved in similar projects in using functional languages to their advantage.
Target audience: Developers and technical architects, especially in Finance and Banking.
