Our 6pm (US ET) talk on Thursday Apr 7 will be "NoSQL? No Problem", with Peter Bell.
TOPIC DESCRIPTION: (provided by the speaker)
You don't need to be Amazon or Google to take advantage of NoSQL data stores. Whether you want to develop applications more quickly or scale them more effectively, there are a range of NoSQL data stores that could help. This introductory session cuts through the NoSQL hype to look at the practical use cases for key value, document, column and graph data stores.
We'll also look at specific NoSQL engines like Riak, CouchDB, MongoDB, Cassandra and Neo and look at how you'd select a NoSQL data store for a given use case.

SPEAKER: (provided by the speaker)
Peter presents internationally and writes extensively on domain specific languages, NoSQL, agile architecture and requirements and estimating. He helps teams to develop great software quickly by improving the requirements gathering, estimating, project management processes, engineering practices and tools used.
He is on the program committee for Code Generation in Cambridge, England and the Domain Specific Modeling workshop at SPLASH (was ooPSLA). He has presented at a range of conferences including SoTR, CF United, cf.Objective, ooPSLA, Code Generation, Practical Product Lines, the British Computer Society Software Practices Advancement conference and the No Fluff Just Stuff tour. He has been published in IEEE Software, Dr. Dobbs, Information Week, Methods & Tools, NFJS the Magazine and is a regular contributor to GroovyMag.
He develops using ColdFusion (go Railo!), Groovy and Ruby and is looking for a chance to improve his Scala, Clojure and F# chops.
