Everybody likes Redis

Everybody likes Redis

liviu Everybody likes Redis

Liviu is currently leading the developing efforts of a company called Biz Pro Technologies. They are enthusiasts about combining SQL and NoSQL solutions and he had the privillege to introduce Redis to their stack which has been live for more than 1 year and a half now with no major incidents.

We are going to discover how Redis can help your current stack, from being a simple cache server and up to a real database. We are going to explore its more advanced features and see real examples of how to use them. It is not a silver bullet, but use it right and it can really speed things up.

Full Stack Application development using JavaScript

Full Stack Application development using JavaScript

tamas Full Stack Application development using JavaScript

Tamas is a full stack web developer turned senior technical trainer. Tamas has a decade of experience working with large, prestigious multinational IT / telecommunications and media organisations such as Verizon, Panasonic, BBC and Accenture. Throughout his career Tamas has delivered training classes all over the world to both technical and non-technical audiences.

The workshop will allow attendees to have hands on experience with developing and architecting a Single Page Application using JavaScript only. The application will have a fronted component written in AngularJS, a middleware using Node.js and Express and finally a backend using MarkLogic, a NoSQL database. With built-in support for JSON, geospatial data, relevancy ranked search and ACID compliancy (forget eventual consistency!) it is truly a great addition to a stack where JavaScript is used throughout the frontend and the backend.

ToroDB: NoSQL & relational Java database with SQL analytics

ToroDB: NoSQL & relational Java database with SQL analytics

alvaro ToroDB: NoSQL & relational Java database with SQL analytics

Álvaro Hernandez is a 36 year-old IT entrepreneur, based in Madrid, Spain. Founder and CTO at 8Kdata, a database R&D company, he spends most of his time working on the ToroDB project, the first NoSQL-on-SQL database, a MongoDB-compatible database that runs on top of PostgreSQL. He is a passionate software developer and open source advocate. Álvaro is a Java software developer, member of JavaSpecialists.eu, but also a DBA, trainer and frequent lecturer at international conferences. He also founded the PostgreSQL Spanish User Group, one of the largest PUGs in the world, with more than 500 members.

How do you cope with the rise of unstructured data? Do you have different systems for your NoSQL and your SQL databases? How do you perform analytics of NoSQL data? ToroDB is an open-source NoSQL & relational database written in Java. ToroDB transforms NoSQL documents to relational structures and stores them in relational databases like PostgreSQL. ToroDB speaks the MongoDB protocol, being compatible with MongoDB programs and tools. With ToroDB, you can use either SQL or the MongoDB API for queries. ToroDB automatically structures and partitions your NoSQL data. ToroDB also speaks the MongoDB protocol and can replicate live from it. And you can do analytics in pure SQL against Massively Parallel Databases like Greenplum or CitusDB. Join this talk to understand how ToroDB works, what advantages it may bring to your Big Data architecture, and how to hack ToroDB’s Java open source code.

Distributed Data Processing with Infinispan and Java Streams

Distributed Data Processing with Infinispan and Java Streams

zamareno Distributed Data Processing with Infinispan and Java Streams

Galder Zamarreño is a core R&D engineer at JBoss, a division of Red Hat. He is one of the founding engineers of Infinispan, Red Hat’s distributed, in-memory key-value store and he currently spends most of his time developing Infinispan’s Functional Map API as well as other data grid and caching functionality. He is very keen on functional programming and has been developing in Scala since 2009. Galder has previously worked with JBoss customers helping them build highly distributed and massively scalable Application Server clusters based on technologies such as JGroups and JBoss Cache. Prior to joining Red Hat, Galder worked in the Retail industry where he was a software developer involved in the development of an EFT software switch solution based on JBoss technologies. The love for distributed systems and open source software comes from his days at ESIDE faculty at University of Deusto (Bilbao, Spain) where he studied a master’s degree in Computer Science.

Infinispan is a distributed in-memory key/value data store capable accelerating data processing using Hadoop, Spark and home-grown Map/Reduce APIs. Starting with Infinispan 8, you can now also use the Java 8 Stream API to process, transform and analyse the data stored in the grid, without burdening the architecture with external platforms. Processing can be applied to keys and/or values and it uses Infinispan’s data partitioning logic to distribute operations to nodes where data lives so that they can be executed locally. In this talk you’ll learn about this new extension to Java 8’s Stream class to process data in Infinispan and how it compares with existing APIs.
