  • NoSQL databases are now very popular, particularly for new projects.
  • However, the same assumptions about deployment and scalability that have been understood from years of working with relational databases like MySQL don’t necessarily apply in the NoSQL world.
  • Real world performance can really only be understood once the databases are running at scale but that’s too late to be discovering problems.
  • This talk will examine the more popular NoSQL databases – MongoDB, Cassandra, CouchDB – to point out important considerations when deploying each of these technologies.
  • It will include how to scale reads and writes, where each database faces bottlenecks (and how to resolve them) and how to deploy redundantly across clusters of machines.
  • It will draw on real case study examples from my own and other company’s usage of each database.
