Felix was supposed to speak at JSConf 2010 in Washington, DC, but then there was a volcano!
What would happen if your database would have no network interface, no query abstractions and less than 250 lines of node.js code? You would end up with a very flexible in-memory database that is wonderfully suitable for dirty tasks such as rapid prototyping or performing millions of GET/SET operations per second.
This talk is about rethinking current database technology and exploring situation-based CAP tradeoffs.
About Felix
Felix loves node.js and other single threaded acrobatics such as unicycling. He is a co-founder of Transloadit and Debuggable, but mostly known for his contributions to CakePHP and node.js. In an alternative life he wants to either work in robotics or develop nuclear solutions to the growing thread of volcano terrorism.
