Data Architecture – a "Corner Stone" of EA

Presenter: Atul Borkar
Time: 1:30 PM – 2:45 PM, Saturday, May 22, 2010
Location: Shiley Hall, Room 123

Data Architecture – a 'Corner Stone'of Enterprise Architecture -As the organizations across the globe, aggressively pursues their strategic objectives; a key strategy and method is required in this pursuit, and that is 'Data/Information Availability'. Accurate, reliable and available information enables the organization to make timely and better business decisions. We have seen many differing methodologies over the years with CRM, Portals, B2B efforts and score carding capabilities. The need for well structured and quality information is more important than ever. As a result, we are seeing a significant acceptance and synergy relative to the importance and value having a robust Data Architecture. Most organizations today have a co

Panel Discussion: NoSQL vs. RDBMS

Time: 7:30 PM – 10:00 PM, Saturday, May 22, 2010

Non-relational data storage has been getting a lot of buzz lately, some folks extolling its' virtues for massive scalability. What are the pros and cons of a non-relational data storage architecture? Where does the typical RDBMS excel? What are the problems that each solution best solves? Is there a place for hybrid data storage architectures, and if so, at what cost in performance and maintenance? The panelists are highly regarded experts in data storage; come and hear their perspectives. Bring your questions!

Programming Semantic Web Applications in Clojure

Presenter: Patrick Logan
Time: 3:15 PM – 4:30 PM, Saturday, May 22, 2010
Location: Franz Hall, Room 005

This session illustrates how to get started developing a web application in Clojure, a functional language, on the JVM. Further illustrated is how to develop data-driven applications based on semantic web technologies. This session will explain the core components, standards, and patterns of a semantic web application. The application uses Jena for storage, query, and inference over semi-structured data. The data is represented using standard vocabularies (RDF, RDFS, OWL) and queried via SPARQL. Developers interested in the NoSQL/AltDB movement will find how these technologies compare to others in that area.

Scaling with NoSQL

Presenter: Bradford Stephens
Time: 1:30 PM – 2:45 PM, Saturday, May 22, 2010
Location: Franz Hall, Room 217
Tags: Data, NoSQL

Many companies, from enterprises like Yahoo to startups like Twitter and Flightcaster, are using NoSQL databases to power the core of their business. The main reasons for this include: flexibility, speed, and scalability. This session will instruct how to think about scalability issues, and determine if NoSQL solutions (such as HBase and Cassandra) are correct for tackling them. There will be a collection of anecdotes and examples from well-known companies, as well as an easy to follow process for determining scalability needs.

The NoSQL Movement, LINQ, and MongoDB - Oh My!

Presenter: Michael Kennedy
Time: 10:45 AM – 12:00 PM, Saturday, May 22, 2010
Location: Franz Hall, Room 217
Tags: Data, ews, NoSQL, OData, Video

Learn how to leverage MongoDB to build .NET applications using LINQ as the data access language. This session will introduce the ideas around the so-called NoSQL movement. We will examine one of the up and coming open source databases called MongoDB. From there we will build out a .NET application using LINQ and MongoDB in a series of interactive demos using Visual Studio 2010 and C#. We will also be covering the NoRM LINQ to MongoDB library in our demos.
