NoSQL NYC Meetup/Mini-Conference - Fall '09

We are basically full at this point due to the seating capacity of our venue, and not taking any more RSVPs to ensure everyone who responded they were coming gets a seat! 

Join us for a NoSQL mini-conference the evening of October 5.

We will have several presentations on NoSQL related technologies, discussion and lightning talks.

This event will run from 6pm - 10pm.

Confirmed Speakers:

• Dwight Merriman from10gen will be presenting on MongoDB (specific speaker unconfirmed).

• Adam Kocoloski from Cloudant will be presenting on CouchDB, with plans to include coverage of CouchDB's replication and conflict resolution model.

• Stuart Sierra will present on Clojure/Hadoop

• Gary Warden King will be presenting on the AllegroGraph RDFStore
• We will be holding a panel discussion between Eliot Horowitz from 10Gen and Adam Kocoloski from Cloudant on the virtues of MongoDB vs. CouchDB.
  
  
• We are working on getting some last minute Lightning Talks together, please email me ASAP if you'd like to participate. Plan for 5 minutes, with powerpoint slides to demonstrate, you'll need to get us your slides by this Thursday or Friday and be able to respond to requests for changes/fixes over the weekend. We plan on having all talks loaded on one computer before the event.
  

Venue space is limited, so if you plan to attend please RSVP. This will not only allow us to avoid having 10 times too many people show up, but to plan ahead should we get a larger than supported response.

Additionally, we expect to have coffee, tea, soda, water, cookies, fruit, candy and chips provided for refreshment.

We have placed the tentative schedule and more information at our website:
