Its times like this, I want to hear from the greater community – the ones that are reading say, Planet MySQL or Planet MariaDB.
MySQL to me, and many others is an ecosystem. We’ve had for the longest time, complementary technology talks, like for memcached (which have been popular, filled rooms). NoSQL is becoming quite popular, and there are complementary technologies sitting around. To get an idea, if terms like the following turn you on: Hadoop, Redis, Pig, NDB (yes, MySQL Cluster is largely NoSQL before NoSQL became popular), Tokyo Tyrant, StormCloud (formerly Waffle Grid).
Now, do you want to see these kinds of talks at the MySQL Conference & Expo 2010?
Check out the schedule grid. Its pretty healthy already ;)
Also, how interested are you in talks about PostgreSQL and MySQL in similar environments? What about replicating between PostgreSQL and Drizzle?
So a simple yes/no, would help. I should get this into a poll, clearly… maybe next time.
