Scala runs on the JVM, can use and be used by Java code almost transparently. Its Java speed and focus on concurrency well position it for demanding server side applications.

This session is for those who consider using Scala in their existing Java projects. We’ll discuss how to smoothly integrate Scala into an existing Java build, testing, development and runtime systems.

In this session we will talk about how to deal with the learning curve, IDE integrations and the peopleware aspects of introducing Scala to your organization.

The session will include examples and anecdotes from the LinkedIn teams who currently use Scala in production.
