For several months now already, we
have been exploring new grounds in the domain of data management, reading oodles
of papers and blogs on the
NoSQL movement. Cassandra,
Google BigTable, Amazon Dynamo, and many, many others, I think we've collected a
reading list worthy of a PhD thesis. Making sure we're making the right decision
for the future of Daisy, and exploring new (and exciting) technology at the same
time. Yeah, we're a engineering shop, so we tend to enjoy bare-bones unpolished
code.
We're hosting a BOF meeting during
Devoxx - the yearly European Java lovefest
- to discuss what we've learned so far, and would be thrilled to learn about
fellow NoSQL-folks in the neighborhood. So come and join us, will you? You get
the chance to get to know some new Outerthinkers as well.
NoSQL
with Cassandra and Hadoop: sharing experiences and insights,
November 16th 19-20h in Metropolis, Antwerp.
Update We'll be talking about
NoSQL/HBase during the
"Tools in Action" track on Nov 16th in the afternoon from 17:25 to 17:55 now
as well.
