DESCRIPTION
See conference video - http://www.lucidimagination.com/devzone/events/conferences/revolution/2011 In 2009 The Guardian launched The Open Platform, a suite of services and tools that enable content partners and developers to build applications with The Guardian’s rich content. The content API, hosted on Solr instances on EC2, contains JSON representations of all Guardian articles back to 1999 - over 1 million articles, and is an increasingly complete representation of the output of the organization. The DataStore contains curated data sets for use in applications and virtualizations. This talk will cover how The Guardian opened up their business, enriched it, and reached new markets with its Open Platform strategy. Stephen will cover the technical architecture, implementation of Solr (the key technology powering the platform), and how The Guardian has used it to embrace disruption in the media space, while finding new sources of revenue and innovation.
