The Principles Behind Groupon

Track: Architecture, wednesday 11:20 - 12:10

Groupon rests upon a foundation built with the moderate application of many varying processes, philosophies, and buzzword-compliant technologies. This presentation will address the different ideas that drive Groupon engineering. Monolithic application design, conservative adoption of SOA, Domain Driven Everything, Agile-ish processes, advanced Ruby metaprogramming and anything else that contributed to the fastest growing company in history, will be covered. Mike Cerna is lead developer at Groupon, having started on the project in April 2007 during its formative years as ThePoint.com.
