An Intro to NoSQL Databases -- NoSQL databases will not become the new dominators. Relational will still be popular, and used in the majority of situations. They, however, will no longer be the automatic choice. (source : http://martinfowler.com/)
Here is my seminar presentation on No-SQL Databases. it includes all the types of nosql databases, merits & demerits of nosql databases, examples of nosql databases etc.

The past years, a number of new database systems have appeared, like MongoDB and Redis. Most of them have radically new ways to look at data persistance, where efficient replication is prioritized over advanced query support.
In this talk we will discuss some of the benefits and drawbacks of the new key/value stores and document databases. As an example, we will demonstrate Redis, an advanced key/value store. Redis is different from most other key/value stores on two dimensions: It runs entirely in RAM and it supports a number of advanced data structures with accompanying specialized algorithms.

Polyglot Persistence - Two Great Tastes That Taste Great TogetherJohn Wood
The days of the relational database being a one-stop-shop for all of your persistence needs are over. Although NoSQL databases address some issues that can’t be addressed by relational databases, the opposite is true as well. The relational database offers an unparalleled feature set and rock solid stability. One cannot underestimate the importance of using the right tool for the job, and for some jobs, one tool is not enough. This talk focuses on the strength and weaknesses of both relational and NoSQL databases, the benefits and challenges of polyglot persistence, and examples of polyglot persistence in the wild.
These slides were presented at WindyCityDB 2010.
Concepts, architectures and uses of distributed databases. A gentle introduction to get you up to speed and understand the value and potential of distributed databases.
This is a presentation I gave to a workshop I organized in UCD focused on Android.
The talk is divided into two sections:
- Android 101
- My experience trying to put together a facebook/foursquare/android mobile app
-- I did not progress very far in this endeavour

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
2. Overview
● Evolution of/motivation for NoSQL
databases
● Characterization of NoSQL databases
● Classification of NoSQL databases
● Popularity/usage of NoSQL systems
3. A brief history of NoSQL
● Originally coined in 1998 by Strozzi for
specific non-rel database
○ easy to use, free, text based data storage, easy
manipulation of contents of db
● Reintroduced by Evans (Rackspace) in 2009
for conf on open source distributed
databases
○ in response to increase in interest in non RDBMS
solutions
■ bringing together Cassandra, Mongo, Couch, etc
● Has grown as a movement over last 3 years
4. Current status
● Significant buzz within community in 2010
○ initial development of technology
○ pioneer deployments
○ lots of meetups/conferences/birds of feathers
● Many key technologies evolved later 2010,
2011
○ more large deployments for some technologies
○ small companies with no legacy basing operations
on NoSQL
5. Current Status
● 2012
○ buzz/hype is fading
○ technology continues to mature
○ increased number of deployments
○ skills sought in job market
6. NoSQL - a negative
definition
● NoSQL simply defined by being non-
relational
○ diverse set of technologies fall into NoSQL camp
● Motivations mixed
○ open source
○ scale - TB, PB - particulary for read/write latency
○ increased flexibility over RDBMS systems
○ ability to work with raw data
○ ACID not always most appropriate design choice
■ analytics data is excellent example
● Results in many different NoSQL
technologies
7. Typical characteristics
● Don't use SQL!
● Open Source
● Intended to deliver performance
○ in some dimension
● Typically JOIN not supported
○ performance hit
● Consistency often relaxed
○ eventual consistency
● More flexibility in schema
○ if schema used at all!
8. Diversity of NoSQL
databases
● 122 seperate technologies listed on http:
//nosql-database.org/
○ mix of commercial, open source and some
inbetween
● Vary in many dimensions:
○ architecture
○ interfaces
■ api/languages
○ internal data storage
○ distribution mechanisms
■ redundancy, reliability
○ usage - deployments & support community
○ maturity
9. Classification of NoSQL
systems
● Column based solutions
● Document store solutions
● Key/Value solutions
● Graph based solutions
● Less significantly:
○ XML databases
○ Object databases
○ Mulitvalue databases
10. Column based solutions
● Structured data
○ similar to classical tables
● Generally much more flexible
○ no rigorous schema necessary
○ can typically add columns in ad hoc fashion
■ often without explicitly declaring column
● However, can result in very different usage
○ eg can have millions of columns associated with
given row
● Examples: Hadoop/HBase, Cassandra,
Hypertable, SimpleDB
11. Document based solutions
● Less structured data
○ DB composed of 'documents' containing arbitrary
data
■ usually containing longer form content eg CMS
● Documents contain some structure to
support query/search/filter, etc
● Somewhat less emphasis on a key
○ can be autogenerated
● Quite unlike classical databases
● Examples: MongoDB, CouchDB
12. Key/value stores
● DBs inspired by memcache
○ simple, fast key/value stores
● Attempt to retain most of DB in memory
○ fast response times
● Different designs for scalability
○ single node/multi node
● Much emphasis on the keys in this type of
DB
● Write usually overwrites entire previous entry
● Examples: Redis, Couchbase/Membase,
DynamoDB, Riak
13. Graph based solutions
● Obviously different from previous categories
○ Focus specifically on graphs
● Queries supported are graph-specific
○ eg get nodes related to specified node
● Typically support for solving standard graph
problems
○ eg shortest path, general graph traversal
● Can deliver very significant performance
over non-graph specific solutions
○ for graph problems!
● Examples: Neo4j
14. It's a noisy space...
● Very many candidate technologies
● Relatively small amount of real world
solutions
● Differences between classifications above is
one of emphasis...
○ column based and document based arrive at semi-
structured sweet spot from opposite ends of
spectrum
● ...although this results in different preferred
use cases...
○ document based solution better for document
problems, eg CMS
15. Common techniques used
● Hashing techniques used to map data to
nodes in cluster
● Internode communication via Gossip
● Common replication techniques
● Thrift is used in a few cases
● MapReduce often used to search over
distributed system
19. Horses for courses...
● SQL is perfectly good solution for many
problems
○ tried and tested
● Some problems require alternative solution
○ typically driven by scale and/or flexibility
● NoSQL offers (many) alternatives
○ although relatively easy to identify realistic options
● Column based approaches good for mostly
structured data with enhanced flexibility
● Document based approaches good for
document oriented problems
