Databases for Agile Development

9:05am Tuesday, 07/26/2011
Keynote
 Location: Oregon Ballroom 203/204
Average rating: ***..
(3.71, 7 ratings)

Much has been made of scalability as a driver for choosing a database,
but the choice of a database influences much more than the scaling
architecture. Different database choices drive different data models
which in turn influence the development process. Dwight Merriman,
founder and CEO of 10gen and a core MongoDB committer, will draw on
his experiences from DoubleClick, where he was founder and CTO, as
well as his experiences founding Gilt Groupe, ShopWiki, and Business
Insider, to discuss how the influence of the database on the
development process and how making the right database choices can
allow agile development.

This keynote is sponsored by 10gen
