More than 25 experts in the development and deployment of non-relational databases will gather to discuss the growing number of practical use cases for NoSQL in production. NoSQL Live is designed to give a view of how NoSQL products across the spectrum can be leveraged to meet new operational data storage challenges in web infrastructure and beyond.
"We couldn't have hoped for a better lineup at NoSQL Live in Boston," said Dwight Merriman, co-founder and CEO of 10gen. "Attendees will hear firsthand from NoSQL experts who are actively transforming the promise of highly scalable, high performance databases that solve real business problems into a reality."
Session topics at NoSQL Live will include scaling with NoSQL, NoSQL in the cloud, schema design with document-oriented databases, the evolution of graph data structure from research to production, the enterprise adoption of NoSQL, and toward web standards for NoSQL. In addition to speakers and panels, the conference will also include lightning talks and a NoSQL Lab for practical exploration of working with specific NoSQL products.
