Here are the slides and video from our public launch at AWS re: Invent, Amazon Web Services’ first-ever user conference.

We had a great time and met a lot of awesome people, including Donnie Berkholz from Redmonk, who shared his thoughts about Mortar on Twitter:

.@mortardata — Rails approach to Big Data. Opinionated open-source framework + PaaS, Python/Java. One of the coolest things at #reinvent.
