1st International ICST conference on Non SQL Databases and Social Applications #
Date: June 6–8, 2012
Location: Berlin, Germany
Socials systems has changed the Web in different ways. Social network and search engine provider became central entities in the Web. A modern website is usually enriched with a user feedback facility or even a place for user disussions. That’s sometimes called Web 2.0. The new web is used to find new commercial partner, new friends, to exchange daten, to make appointments etc. pp. SmartPhones made the web mobile. We can be online whereever we are if we have a smartphone and an appropriate wireless infrastructure. Not all people have.
This conference is aimed to bring together researchers, practitioner and any interested party fro a fruitful discussion in these topics. Let’s discuss the next steps into a better new Web.
Past NoSQL Conferences and Events from 2012
Big Data and NoSQL at QCon London #
Date: Mar.8th
Location: London
Description: The software and computing community has put a spotlight on data and data architecture. New technology has emerged for processing and analyzing very large data sets commonly known as ‘Big Data’. Software such as Apache Hadoop has gained traction as an aid to big data analytics. Social networks have given us web sites with communities of hundreds of millions of users, putting an increased emphasis on systems and databases that scale. A class of key-value stores and graph databases, commonly called NoSQL databases, has emerged to enable us to build systems that scale out horizontally to support millions of users. Come to this track to explore emerging data and data architecture trends, including NOSQL and Big Data.
NoSQL Road Show #

FOSDEM GraphProc #
Date: Feb.5th
Location: ULB Campus Solbosch, Avenue Franklin D. Roosevelt, 50 1050 Bruxelles, Belgium
FOSDEM is the biggest free and non-commercial event organized by and for the community. Its goal is to provide Free and Open Source developers a place to meet. No registration necessary.
Since 2-3 years graph processing systems are gaining an emerging impact for processing complex semi-structured and interrelated data sets. Graph databases like Neo4j, Semantic Web and Linked Open Data approaches like the DBPedia project, and large-scale graph processing like Apache Hama encourage each one of us to think about our problems in graph like structures. Thanks to the high quality open source implementations and outstanding community support, this movement is currently wining a lot of momentum within different developer communities.
Inside this event there are run many developers rooms about different topics, this year we are having a graph processing room with talks all about graph

There are many new scalable storage solutions that are non-SQLish and these are handling more and more data. As this happens entirely new problems and solutions see the light of day - going far beyond the traditional view that all data should go into a relational database and be accessed using SQL. We will take a look at where and how NoSQL can be used from people already using it.

MongoDB: Object Storage Strategies (Designing and Mapping) #
Date: August 10th, 2010
Location: Engine Yard, 500 Third St Suite 510 San Francisco, CA (map?)
Description: Come learn some of the strategies for mapping and storing your (object) data in MongoDB! With so much flexibility in how data is stored, and because each document can be different, it can be hard to design a schema that works well. We will investigate strategies for storing object graphs and relational data, in both linked (in other collections) and embedded (in the same document) forms.

Using MongoDB with Scala #
Date: August 10th, 2010
Location: Gilt Groupe Offices, 2 Park Ave, 4th Floor, New York, NY (map?)
Description: Brendan McAdams will be introducing MongoDB and reviewing how to use it with Scala. There are several drivers and ORM-like integration frameworks which will be reviewed, including one which Brendan maintains called “Casbah”. Casbah focused on providing a fluid DSL-like query syntax as close to core MongoDB querying as possible, as well as implicit conversions to simplify working with Mongo from Scala (but still using the official Java driver underneath it all). Discussion will also include the Lift framework’s recently introduced Mongo integration (including support for the ActiveRecord pattern) and Akka’s STM persistence using MongoDB.

no:sql(eu) #
Date: April 20-22, 2010
Location: London, UK
Description: NOSQL EU is a conference about non-relational database systems. It is sprung out of the observation that the era of the “one-size-fits-all database” seems to be over. Instead of squeezing all your data into tables, we believe the future is about choosing a data store that best matches your data set and operational requirements. It’s a future of heterogeneous data backends, polyglot persistence and choosing Not Only SQL but sometimes also a document database, a key-value store or a graph database.
