Explore the development of Edis, a highly available NoSQL database that implements the Redis protocol, in this 39-minute conference talk from Strange Loop 2013. Dive into the process of creating a Redis clone written in Erlang, offering a multi-master alternative to Redis' single point of failure. Learn about Edis' open-source nature, pluggable backends, and implementation of the Paxos algorithm for leader election among multiple peer nodes. Discover how Edis compares to Riak while maintaining a single authority for atomic operations. Gain insights into NoSQL databases, functional programming languages like Erlang and the OTP platform, and distributed computing concepts. Presented by Chad DePue, founder of Inaka and expert in functional programming languages and NoSQL databases.
