Open Source Bridge Database Sessions

Open Source Bridge, the “conference for open source citizens,” is right around the corner! The sessions were just announced and it’s going to be packed with quite a variety of really interesting talks. From open cloud computing topics to hardware hacking to language hacks (like HipHop from Facebook), I’m really looking forward to being there (I’m helping organize the event, but hopefully I’ll have time to attend sessions as well).

I wanted to point out a few of the great database talks:

• State of MariaDB – Monty Widenius
• Cassandra: Strategies for Distributed Data Storage – Kelvin Kakugawa
• Developing Replication Plugins for Drizzle – Padraig O’Sullivan
• Drizzle, Scaling MySQL for the Future – Brian Aker
• SELECT * FROM Internet Using YQL – Jonathan LeBlanc
• Introduction to MongoDB – Michael Dirolf
• Introduction to PostgreSQL – Christophe Pettus, Josh Berkus
• Relational vs. Non-Relational – Josh Berkus
• Stacks of Cache – Duncan Beevers
• CouchApp Evently Guided Hack w/ CouchDB – J Chris Anderson

Beyond the DB talks, I’m also exited for a few other talks around high performance and high availability, from Facebook operations to Rasmus Lerdorf’s talk on making your PHP applications faster. I’ll also take the opportunity to shamelessly plug my own talk on writing high performance multi-core applications. There are also rumors of donut trucks, tesla coils, and scavenger hunts.

You should register to attend today, it’s going to be awesome.
