 Architectures you've always wondered about

Host: Dan Prichett

Have you ever browsed to a site like eBay or Second Life and wondered or even fantasized about what software architecture they may have used and what insights their teams must have after solving such complex and large-scale problems.

This year's past QCon in London saw the architects of Yahoo, eBay, and Amazon present their designs and lessons learned. QCon San Franisco will feature more of these big boys and other industry leading companies to give you an exclusive chance to learn directly from some of the most known and high-volume web applications in the world.
