Google I/O 2009 - Mercurial on BigTable

Google I/O 2009 - Mercurial on BigTable

Jacob Lee

Project Hosting on Google Code is a web-based platform for open source development, providing mailing lists, an issue tracker, a source code repository, download areas, and so on. This talk will focus on a new version-control component of Project Hosting on Google Code: Mercurial backed by Bigtable. Mercurial/Bigtable is designed to scale over thousands of machines and use Bigtable's replication to run over multiple datacenters. It is built to be able to host hundreds of thousands of open source projects. Come learn about Mercurial's architecture, and how we've extended it to grow to "Google size".

In the computing field you are dealing with people from all different kinds of cultures and backgrounds. If you want to close your mind because you think the guy is goofy you are not going to learn to much. - and if you don't learn too much you won't go very far in this industry.

This BigTable sounds like a Tuple Space. Is that how you can view it?

Good, informative talk.

But again, ear splitting audio.

Why not post process those talks?
