Article Excerpt:

  1. Why NoSQL Will Not Die. Stephan Schmidt explains why you may wait a long time for NoSQL to go to that great bit bucket in the sky.
  2. DBMS Musings: Distinguishing Two Major Types of Column-Stores by Daniel Abadi. I have noticed that Bigtable, HBase, Hypertable, and Cassandra are being called column-stores with increasing frequency, due to their ability to store and access column families separately. This makes them appear to be in the same category as column-stores such as Sybase IQ, C-Store, Vertica, VectorWise, MonetDB, ParAccel, and Infobright, which also are able to access columns separately.
  3. Cloud Economics, By The Square Foot by Rich Miller. But cloud computing offers a middle path, offering cost and usability advantages for customers, as well as an attractive return for providers.
  4. PostgreSQL: meet your queue by Theo Schlossnagle. I really think that cueing your database to publish over AMQP is the bees knees and it turns out I wasn't alone!
  5. Scaling GIS Data in Non-relational Data Store by Mike Malone. How SimpleGEO uses NoSQL and other technologies. Yes, the still use memcached. Caching ain’t going anywhere.
  6. CLTV45: The Evolution of the Graph Data Structure from Research to Production. In this recording from “NoSQL Live Boston” we learn how Graph Data Structures evolved from research into production.
  7. Spanner: Google’s next Massive Storage and Computation infrastructure by Royans. MapReduce, Bigtable and Pregel have their origins in Google and they all deal with “large systems”. But all of them may be dwarfed in size and complexity by a new project Google is working on. .
