DeNormalised NOSQL 2012: Jameel Syed on Shake It Out: Serving API data with Voldemort at Musicmetric
Shake It Out: Serving API data with Voldemort at Musicmetric
Jameel Syed: Musicmetric collects and analyses online data to present a complete picture of how people are engaging with artists online. Data is collected and combined from social media (activity timeseries, demographics), peer to peer filesharing (geographic fan activity) and reviews (NER, sentiment analysis). When we started processing increased volumes of this public data, along with private data sources such as iTunes and Spotify transactions using Hadoop we faced a new challenge; how to serve the data for hundreds of thousands of artists with our RESTful API. Of the myriad of key value stores we chose Project Voldemort. In this talk we describe our data processing pipeline and how we came to choose Voldemort.

Jim Webber & Ian Robinson's Neo4j Tutorial

The Neo4J Tutorials are a mixture of theory and hands-on practical sessions that enable you to discover the true capacity of graph data and Neo4J databases. The practical aspects of this Neo4J course consist of Koan-style lessons where a specific part of the Neo4j stack is presented as a set of failing unit tests which participants will work to fix. You will participate in gradually more complex and challenging exercises until you’re capable of implementing sophisticated graph operations with Neo4J.

Udi Dahan's Advanced Distributed Systems Design with SOA

This very intensive 5-day workshop will help you take the pain out of designing large-scale distributed systems. New technologies make it easier to comply with today’s communications and security standards, but they won't magically provide you with a robust and scalable system. Join Udi for a course packed with the wisdom of companies like SUN, Amazon and eBay. Tried-and-true theories and fallacies will be shown, helping you to avoid costly mistakes. Communications patterns like publish/subscribe and correlated one-way request/response will be demonstrated, in conjunction with advanced object-oriented state management practices for long-running workflows. If you enjoy deep architectural discussion, join!
