CouchDB speakers
CouchDB devs and users,
It's almost conference season again, and there will be unprecedented
demand for CouchDB speakers. I think it'd really help the project to
have people talking about CouchDB at all the local conferences and
user group meetups.
If you've never talked at a conference before, it's really rewarding,
and easy to do. If you're looking for inspiration, there are a lot of
slide decks here:
http://www.slideshare.net/search/slideshow?q=couchdb
If you are looking for someone to talk at a conference, or if you see
conferences that could use speakers, these lists are a great place to
connect people. So if you'd like to talk, or looking for speakers,
reply to this thread and let's see what comes together.

I spoke about couchdb at a user meetup in Toledo and would be happy to speak
about it anywhere in the southern US.

I'm experimenting couchdb on some problems here in Lecce (Italy)
to better understanding its capabilities and applicable domains.
I think I will speak about couchdb in some local geek events in
the next months.

I've been following this NoSQL mailing list:
http://groups.google.com/group/nosql-discussion
Say what you will about the moniker, it's gonna be filling conference
seats this summer, and those people deserve to hear about CouchDB.
So if you're interested in CouchDB / NoSQL meetups and conferences,
this group is solid.

Just another bump to remind people that the CFP for OSCON is closing

Vijay,
This sounds like a good talk proposal. The best thing to do is to
start sending it into the various CFP for conferences.
I especially like the idea of hearing more about CouchDB-Lounge in production.

Meebo is definitely interested/willing to talk about how we're using
couchdb. We bounced around a couple ideas internally and came up with
3 different topics that we thought were interesting.
1) Using couch in a clustered environment (Couchdb-lounge). Our
cluster has 11 boxes in it, with full redundancy.
2) We've been migrating all of our stats systems to be based on
couchdb. The actual visualization code is served using couchapp.
3) For one of our recent projects, we've been using couch as an
application store to keep separate parts of the application in sync.
Whenever something is modified, we simply update a document in couch.
Other pieces listen to _changes and update their state as necessary.
This is really nice for two main reasons. All of our code is already
asynchronous, so listening to _changes is pretty trivial to add
support to. Also, it means that at any piece can be restarted without
worrying about the state, since it's all stored in couch. It's made
for (what we think) is a very elegant architecture.
Of course, we're also more than happy to talk about our experiences
with couch in production environments in general.

Just another bump to remind people that the CFP for OSCON is closing

Re: CouchDB speakers
Posted by Vijay Raghunathan <vi...@meebo-inc.com>.
Meebo is definitely interested/willing to talk about how we're using
couchdb. We bounced around a couple ideas internally and came up with
3 different topics that we thought were interesting.
1) Using couch in a clustered environment (Couchdb-lounge). Our
cluster has 11 boxes in it, with full redundancy.
2) We've been migrating all of our stats systems to be based on
couchdb. The actual visualization code is served using couchapp.
3) For one of our recent projects, we've been using couch as an
application store to keep separate parts of the application in sync.
Whenever something is modified, we simply update a document in couch.
Other pieces listen to _changes and update their state as necessary.
This is really nice for two main reasons. All of our code is already

I've been following this NoSQL mailing list:
http://groups.google.com/group/nosql-discussion
Say what you will about the moniker, it's gonna be filling conference
seats this summer, and those people deserve to hear about CouchDB.
So if you're interested in CouchDB / NoSQL meetups and conferences,
this group is solid.
