I presented Riak at the NYC NoSQL Mini-Conference on October 5, 2009. Slides, text, and video of my talk are now available.Monday, August 17, 2009
Basho released Riak to the world last Friday. Riak is as simple as downloading it and hitting the HTTP interface. You can stop reading now and happily speak REST to it for the rest of your application's lifetime. If you're interested in more advanced features like field validation and link-walking, the rest of this post demonstrate those features by discussing the development of the demo application that comes with Riak.Wednesday, June 17, 2009

This is the third in a four-part series that demonstrates how to take the simple os-environment Webmachine resource I wrote last week, and expand it to support modification, authorization, and conditional requests. Today I add conditional requests through ETags.
