Keynote: A divided web, a review of the role of frameworks

on YouTube ↗43m

" summary

Argument: the web splits into heavy client and heavy server work, and frameworks mostly make existing things easier rather than invent new capabilities. Django still solves the 2005 checklist well but not the new pile: real‑time, search, queues, JS frontends, monitoring. Deployment is getting practical through Heat orchestration + Chef/Puppet and portable Docker containers, so reproducible scaling becomes feasible. Expect more tooling pieces, not a single all‑in‑one miracle.
