PASSMN has announced it’s June meeting. A little of the SQL and a little of the non-SQL. Get a brush up on what’s out there to help you understand databases more.
The Entertainment
“11 Pages that Changed the World”
Mark Knutson, Hennepin Faculty Associates
In 1970, the widely implemented database products were based either on a network or an inverted tree structure. E. F. Codd, an IBM research mathematician, presented a paper to the Association of Computing Machinery proposing a database management system based on mathematical objects called relations.
I will briefly review the topical coverage of the paper, including the formal definition of a relation. I will also place the paper in historical context and review how IBM’s response to it shaped the DBMS product landscape that we see today.
NoSQL
Dan McCreary
This presentation will discuss the "NoSQL movement", a new set of data solutions that leverage non-relational data stores. These data stores are frequently designed to leverage thousands of commodity processors, are "schema free", use simple key-value stores or document stores and are often associated with web-scale "BigData" challenges. This presentation will cover the key business factors and technology issues driving this movement.
