CouchDB Meetup in London and Amsterdam

If you like to meet the CouchDB crowd, here are two good opportunities.

London

J Chris Anderson (@jchris) and I (@janl) are hosting a CouchDB meetup in central London this Saturday (March 21th). The plan so far is to hit an English Pub and share a few pints with friends.

We put up a wiki page where you can register (it’s free of course), so we know how much seats to look for. If you know a good place to got to, add your suggestion to the page, thanks!

Amsterdam

The following week, Chris & I will be in Amsterdam for ApacheCon EU. We’re looking at Wednesday 25th to meet …

OSCON 2008

What a week!

First off, here are the slides from my talk “CouchDB at 10,000ft”. Thanks to everyone who showed up and a double thanks for the eight of you who rated my session so far. More special props to the ones with constructive criticism. I’ll do better next time. If you haven’t already, place your vote.

Ted has some nice pictures of my talk and the discussion afterwards. The feedback I got was great and people do really want to use CouchDB. This is great encouragement for putting in some after-work hours to push things towards 1.0.

But OSCON.

Know Your Tool

The RarestNews developer considers InnoDB and CouchDB for a re-architection of his high volume news site. He did his homework researching, but I couldn’t help but comment on a few things he wrote. The comment turned into a blog post and since this is my blog it should be posted here as well.

I am specifically referring to the paragraphs about InnoDB and CouchDB:

MySQL problems

So, to be technical here I’ve used MyISAM tables (never really liked InnoDB because of it’s slow writes and at 100k new articles a day with lots of meta-data to write about them, like tags, dates, snippets, word frequencies, etc) - it seemed like a good decision. The bad part was that on write …

Erlang User Group Berlin

Berlin has a long history of blooming user groups and the Erlang User Group Berlin will be no exception!

That’s right, Germany’s capital and one of the nicest places to be in Europe (among all the other nice places, hooray for plurality) finally has place for Erlang enthusiasts. That is in fact a pleonasm, I haven’t found a single soul yet who is not enthusiastic about working with Erlang, but what do I know?

Anyway.

Join the discussion group and help to pick a date for meetings.

If you are an Erlang developer on visit in Berlin, let us know, so we can have an out-of-order meeting with you.

Sorry if that shows up at a seemingly non-related planet feed, this is a spam measure and won’t happen again. Thanks for your patience.

At OSCON

Boy am I thrilled.

OSCON, back in the old days, was the Mekka for open source developers. Glorious but out of reach and too far away. I don’t know if that image holds true still, but judging the enthusiastic reports by previous attendees, it does. And this year I will be able to attend.

I will not only be able to attend, I will even give a presentation. You can guess the topic of course and I don’t want to stretch this post into advertising CouchDB yet again. (I’ll leave that to other posts :-)

This is a heads-up for all the friends and colleagues I’ve known and worked with for quite a few years now but haven’t had a chance to meet in a while. If you are coming to OSCON, please get in touch ( …
