A Vendor-Independent Comparison of NoSQL Performance Based on Real-life Cases

The variety of databases makes it difficult to select the best tool for a particular case. The unbiased investigations are rare—tests are often conducted by database vendors themselves. Unless you have implemented architectures that use both NoSQL databases that support data-intensive distributed applications and traditional RDBMS, then many technology options available are probably a slight enigma. This session focuses on real-world successful attempt to benchmark Couchbase, MongoDB, Cassandra, Riak, NuoDB, and MySQL cluster side by side using Amazon high-performance server configuration.

Attendees will learn:

How NoSQL databases differ from each other
Benchmark test results
Lessons learned about contender's strong and weak areas
Peculiarities of AWS EC2 when working with different databases, challenges and things to avoid
