NOSQL mailing list
At the event I got requests to set up a NOSQL mailing list as a cross project discussion forum.
Hopefully it will encourage collaboration and exchange of ideas. If that sounds interesting subscribe here.
Sponsors
Thanks again to presenters and the sponsors (last.fm, cbsi, digg and github).

I don't see the video for the Cassandra persensation as this was hands-down the most interesting one.
Has the video been recorded for this session?
A video has been recorded for the Cassandra presentation, it is currently being transcoded. Should be up tomorrow if nothing goes wrong tonight.
Great videos and presentations. I don't know if it is only me, but the Dynomite video on vimeo doesn't seem to work. Maybe the Digg team can re-upload it.
cheers
It is interesting to note that these new approaches are so young that almost all companies think that is better to start from scratch instead of trying to collaborate/improve any other existing alternative. For 3rd parties that do not have the capacity to build such a tool internally this makes things a lot more complex as leaving aside the lack of experience people will have to figure out what features are they looking for and evaluate them against all these systems. I have started to put together comparisons of these products (http://themindstorms.blogspot.com/2009/05/quick-reference-to-alternative-data.html) and I'll continue to look into comparing different aspects/features.
Alex: that was true about two years ago when most of these projects started. :) It's less true now -- for instance, when I evaluated the options in December I started working on Cassandra instead of starting from scratch.
But nothing on GemStone? GemStone's been building successful commercial object databases for three decades!
Randal: It was a small one day event organized by one person remotely from another continent, so it wasn't possible to include all the interesting projects out there.
Besides, it sounds like the GemStone products aren't open source which was what we focused on.
Anyway you could get some of the presenters to export thier slides as PDFs or put them on slideshare/etc? I really want to check these out but I dont have the latest power point.
AQ: I've converted most to pdf now, except the mongodb, I don't have a new enough powerpoint version for that one.
Shame that Persevere from the Dojo guys wasn't covered - I really like that one. Was there any particular reason it was left out?
I dont want to be rude but sound quality sucks and sometimes it is so hard to understand anything...
anyway this indeed is very interesting topic
This is why infrastructure is the hottest game to be in. I was doing tuxedo & J2EE 10 years back - to see you people pioneer this (new) movement shows the next wave is here...and cloud infrastructure is THE place to be.
Johan, The Dynomite video is b0rked. Any way to re-run it or re-upload to Vimeo?
Cheers
I wrote an article on the Death of the Swiss-Army RDBMS on my blog, http://www.roadtofailure.com
I think that a generation of engineers has been crippled due to limiting their data storage and analysis to traditional Databases and SQL.
As I say in my article, "The ACIDy, Transactional, RDBMS doesn’t scale, and it needs to be relegated to the proper dustbin before it does any more damage to engineers trying to write scalable software."
Johan,
This meetup was a great idea (despite the hyperbolic Death of SQL pronouncements). Lots of different teams are writing key-value store type software for their own needs and many of them are open sourcing them. Good to have a place to get together and exchange notes.
Btw, pdf slides are good and portable and all but they are a "lossy" conversion from the original presentation formats (ppt, odf or whatever) in the sense that the animations are missing. Some of the animations are pretty powerful demonstrations of relatively hard to visualize concepts (like the one about consistent hashing in the facebook guy's presenatation). Could we also have the original presentation along with the pdf please.
Thanks

Relational is still a good idea, it's just that we need to expand how we approach it rather than toss it. Please check out Dynamic Relational at http://www.geocities.com/tablizer/dynrelat.htm and SMEQL, a query language, at http://www.c2.com/cgi/wiki?TqlRoadmap
Minor update: Reuploaded the Dynomite video and added back the powerpoint links in addition to the pdf links for those where I have the original slides.
I would like to see some people from the native-XML community also chime in. Seemes like very day there are more-and-more people using eXist-db.org and MarkLogic.
I wish this was held up in Seattle!
Great insight into technologies that are new to me.
Working with customers who have existing database scalability and performance problems. I am interested to hear about any case studies where an existing RDBMS was replaced with a data store?
It seems to me that data stores provide excellent scalability and performance, but only in the context of applications written from scratch due to the tight coupling of the data and application layers. For now, I cannot see their ready acceptance to solve companies existing RDBMS's problems as I point out here:

Such a beautiful Idea and Have a goog presentation is there. Thanks for your flawless tips. I appreciate you Dude.

We are also working on a NoSQL solution called Wakanda.
Here is a little description :

thanks for sharing the post. this very funny, some time ago I conducted a similar project, whose name was viagra online, which will be honest, I learned much much on this subject!
