Description

The first engineer at MemSQL responsible for building sharding implementations that now powers the likes of Goldman Sachs, Uber, Pinterest, Akamai, and Comcast shares his experiences of building industrial-grade solutions and applying it to blockchain scalability. Near Protocol (http://nearprotocol.com/) has 3 early engineers of MemSQL & multiple winners of ACM ICPC worldwide coding competition who are on the way to building the first working implementation of sharding by state for blockchain infrastructure.

Alex Skidanov (https://twitter.com/AlexSkidanov) walks the audience through how sharding is done in a commercial database space, and what's the missing ingredient in scaling blockchain today.
