A few members of the Riak Team are at OSCON all week. We are here to take part in the amazing talks and tutorials, but also to talk to Riak users and community members.
Yesterday I had the opportunity to have a brief chat with Andrew Harvey, a developer who hails from Sydney, Australia and works for a startup called Lexer. They are building some awesome applications around brand monitoring and analytics, and Riak is helping in that effort.
In this short clip, Andrew gives me the scoop on Lexer and shares a few details around why and how they are using Riak (and MySQL) at Lexer.
(Deepest apologies for the shakiness. I forgot the Tripod.)
Enjoy!
