3. Riak
Riak is a highly available, fault tolerant database that focuses on
high scalability as well as critical data -- whether big, medium, or
small. This focus on critical data has lead to Riak being trusted
by startups, enterprises and governments around the world.
However, Riak is no silver bullet. Focusing on extreme
availability comes at a price. This talk will be broken into two
parts: A technical overview of Riak. Followed by current
research/development that will reshape Riak in the not-so-
distant future

4. MapR
New approaches to NoSQL applications; How MapR built M7
and why. This talk takes a technological deep dive into MapR
M7 including information on some of the key challenges that
were solved during the implementation of M7. MapR's M7 is
a clean room replication of the HBase API written in C++ and
fully integrated into the MapR platform. In the process of
implementing M7, we learned some lessons and solved some
interesting challenges.

6. Idea for a talk?
In general, we're looking for a deep
technical talk with implementation
details about a big system that's
production-grade :)
