The TrafficServer Meetup is a free, open to the public session at ApacheCon, on the evening of Tuesday November 3 at 8pm in room 4. It is an informal session for people interested in hearing about the podling project.

We'll (likely – this is a strawman) talk about

  • What is the TrafficServer
  • A feature overview
  • A performance overview
  • The projects history
  • Why Yahoo chose to open source the server
  • An architecture overview
  • How to get started with the project

Update: Here are the slides that were presented (with a bit of additional detail to the benchmark slide as that generated a fair amount of questions)

We'll also be accepting suggestions for topics on the night if there is enough time.
