Learn how to: -- Create simple database-backed applications, and build dynamic user-centric web pages using Ajax and REST -- Exploit the Rails service frameworks to send emails and implement web services -- Map data to an imperfect table, traverse complex relationships, and build custom finders -- Use techniques to solve common database performance problems See how fast you can go on Rails, and how reliable it's become with the stability and power of version 2.1.

Biography/History:
Bruce A. Tate is a kayaker, mountain biker, and father of two. In his spare time, he is an independent consultant in Austin, Texas. In 2001, he founded J2Life, LLC, a consulting firm that specializes in Java persistence frameworks and lightweight development methods. His customers have included FedEx, Great West Life, TheServerSide, and BEA. He speaks at conferences and Java user's groups around the nation. Before striking out on his own, Bruce spent 13 years at IBM working on database technologies, object-oriented infrastructure, and Java. He was recruited away from IBM to help start the client services practice in an Austin startup called Pervado Systems. He later served a brief stint as CTO of IronGrid, which built nimble Java performance tools. Bruce is the author of four books, including the bestselling "Bitter Java", and the recently released Better, Faster, Lighter Java, from O'Reilly. First rule of kayak: When in doubt, paddle like Hell.
