SUMMARY:NoSQL @ Netflix
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Siddharth Anand (Netflix). Over the past few ye
 ars, Netflix has migrated to the cloud. This talk details Netflix's tran
 sition away from relational databases and towards high-availability (NoS
 QL) storage systems. We rely on a combination of proprietary (e.g. Simpl
 eDB and S3) and open-source (e.g. Cassandra and HBase) NoSQL technologie
 s.

SUMMARY:The Right Tool For The Right Job: Choosing The Best Data Storage
  Option
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Patrick Lightbody (New Relic). Between the NoSQ
 L movement and new cloud offerings, it seems there are new storage optio
 ns popping up every day. How do you select which one is the best for you
 r project? The truth is that it's unlikely one option is best for all yo
 ur needs. This session walks you through the various options considered 
 by one startup and how it selected five separate storage engines - and h
 as no regret doing so!

DESCRIPTION:Presented by Ezra Zygmuntowicz (VMware Inc). Redis is an ent
 ry in the new breed of nosql databases. But it takes a different approac
 h that makes it much more interesting then most of the other key/value s
 tores in the same category. Come learn what makes redis so useful that i
 t seems everyone is adding it to their toolbox.

DESCRIPTION:Presented by Brian Aker (HP). Many people view topics like M
 ap/Reduce and queue systems as advanced concepts that require in-depth k
 nowledge and time consuming software setup. Gearman is changing all that
  by making this barrier to entry as low as possible with an open source,
  distributed job queuing system.

DESCRIPTION:Presented by Dwight Merriman (10gen). One of the challenges 
 that comes with moving to MongoDB is figuring how to best model your dat
 a. While most developers have internalized the rules of thumb for design
 ing schemas for RDBMSs, these rules don't always apply to MongoDB.

SUMMARY:Scaling Solr Horizontally in the Cloud
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Andy Blyler (Barracuda Networks, Inc), Lindsay 
 Snider. Solr, an open source enterprise search server, scales very well 
 within an index (vertical scaling). It is when you have multiple indexes
  (horizontal scaling) that it starts to get hairy, which happens a lot w
 hen you are hosting a cloud based solution for multiple users. In this s
 ession we will discuss these issue as well as the techniques of how to o
 vercome them in-depth.

DESCRIPTION:Presented by Greg Fodor (Etsy). The data & analytics teams a
 t Etsy build up and tear down more than a thousand independent Hadoop cl
 usters on EC2 each month. This talk discusses the benefits of this appro

 and Hadoop clusters can be created, used, and shut down quickly and easi
 ly.

SUMMARY:MVCC Unmasked
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Bruce Momjian (EnterpriseDB). Multiversion Conc
 urrency Control (MVCC) allows Postgres to offer high concurrency even du
 ring significant database read/write activity. MVCC specifically offers 
 behavior where "readers never block writers, and writers never block rea
 ders". This talk explains how MVCC is implemented in Postgres and highli
 ghts optimizations which minimize the downsides of MVCC. This talk is fo
 r advanced users.

DESCRIPTION:Presented by Yoshinori Matsunobu (DeNA). We at DeNA (largest
  social game provider in Japan) handle over 2 billion page views per day
  with MySQL. We heavily use SSD and tune Linux. We run non-trivial solut
 ions such as non-stop, automated MySQL master failover. We also use MySQ
 L not only as traditional RDBMS but also an extremely high performance N
 oSQL. I'd like to introduce our MySQL solutions to make our social games
  scale better.

 o optimize your work, conduct correct benchmarks, and make educated deci
 sions. We'll show you how knowing only a little about SQL internals can 
 help so much with tuning things.

 well-suited to modern hardware: large, slow SATA disks, SSDs or many cor
 es. Castle, an open-source project, is a ground-up overhauling of RAID, 
 file systems, and the POSIX interface.

 for large scale read/write architectures, based on real world implementa
 tions. Supporting millions of users on commodity hardware doesn't need m

SUMMARY:QYZ: LaTeX, R and Redis for Beautiful Analytics
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Noah Pepper (Lucky Sort), Homer Strong (Lucky S
 ort). We produce gorgeous LaTeX reports while harnessing the power of R 
 on the backend. The data is pulled from our PostgreSQL database, the ana
 lysis and visualizations are fast and distributed thanks to Redis. We'll
  talk about weaving together open source tools to build powerful analyti
 cs reporting engines that rival the commercial alternatives.

SUMMARY:Facebook Messages and HBase
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Nicolas Spiegelberg (Facebook). In November, Fa
 cebook launched a new version of Messages that combines chat, SMS, email
 , and Messages into a real-time conversation.  Facebook relies on Apache
  HBase, a NoSQL-style database, for storing this real-time message data.
   This talk will elaborate on our decision process, system configuration
 , scaling issues, and advantages gained by choosing Open Source.

DESCRIPTION:Presented by Josh Patterson (Cloudera). Time Series sensors 
 are being ubiquitously integrated in places like cell phones, environmen

SUMMARY:Databases for Agile Development
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Dwight Merriman (10gen). Much has been made of 
 scalability as a driver for choosing a database, but the choice of a dat
 abase influences much more than the scaling architecture. Different data
 base choices drive different data models which in turn influence the dev
 elopment process.

SUMMARY:Living In A Relational World
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Brian Aker (HP). We love data, and today we gen

  a photo, or fill out a form online, we want to know that this data will
  persist, and we want to know that we can share, access, or reference it
  in the future. For any meaningful use, we need to how data relates to o
 ther data.
