Cloud Computing and Large Scale environments require sometime applications based on complex and distributed architectures… and this usually means a huge overhead in the design and confusion out of control in the code (network wise race conditions, single points of failure and so on)
Introducing elements like *MQ and IPC frameworks in this kind of applications is the only way to reduce the complexity and enable a fluid design (in other words: mess-under-control)
The talk is focused on describing how to design a distributed application in different scenarios, using ZeroMQ (a modern broker-less MQ system) as core framework, with examples and demos.
