NoSQL Exchange – 2 November 2011

NoSQL Exchange – 2 November 2011

It doesn’t get much better or fresher (for non-attendees) than this!

  • Dr Jim Webber of Neo Technology starts the day by welcoming everyone to the first of many annual NOSQL eXchanges. View the podcast here…
  • Emil Eifrém gives a Keynote talk to the NOSQL eXchange on the past, present and future of NOSQL, and the state of NOSQL today. View the podcast here…
  • HANDLING CONFLICTS IN EVENTUALLY CONSISTENT SYSTEMS In this talk, Russell Brown examines how conflicting values are kept to a minimum in Riak and illustrates some techniques for automating semantic reconciliation. There will be practical examples from the Riak Java Client and other places.
  • MONGODB + SCALA: CASE CLASSES, DOCUMENTS AND SHARDS FOR A NEW DATA MODEL Brendan McAdams — creator of Casbah, a Scala toolkit for MongoDB — will give a talk on “MongoDB + Scala: Case Classes, Documents and Shards for a New Data Model”
  • REAL LIFE CASSANDRA Dave Gardner: In this talk for the NOSQL eXchange, Dave Gardner introduces why you would want to use Cassandra, and focuses on a real-life use case, explaining each Cassandra feature within this context.
  • DOCTOR WHO AND NEO4J Ian Robinson: Armed only with a data store packed full of geeky Doctor Who facts, by the end of this session we’ll have you tracking down pieces of memorabilia from a show that, like the graph theory behind Neo4j, is older than Codd’s relational model.
  • BUILDING REAL WORLD SOLUTION WITH DOCUMENT STORAGE, SCALA AND LIFT Aleksa Vukotic will look at how his company assessed and adopted CouchDB in order to rapidly and successfully deliver a next generation insurance platform using Scala and Lift.
  • ROBERT REES ON POLYGLOT PERSISTENCE Robert Rees: Based on his experiences of mixing CouchDB and Neo4J at Wazoku, an idea management startup, Robert talks about the theory of mixing your stores and the practical experience.
  • PARKBENCH DISCUSSION This Park Bench discussion will be chaired by Jim Webber.
  • THE FUTURE OF NOSQL AND BIG DATA STORAGE Tom Wilkie: Tom Wilkie takes a whistle-stop tour of developments in NOSQL and Big Data storage, comparing and contrasting new storage engines from Google (LevelDB), RethinkDB, Tokutek and Acunu (Castle).

And yes, I made a separate blog post on Neo4j and Dr. Who. 😉 What can I say? I am a fan of both.
