Elastically Scaling NewSQL Database on the Cloud

Meet Barry Morris, CEO of NuoDB, who will be introducing you to NuoDB's groundbreaking new database, which has been designed from ground up to elastically scale on the cloud without compromising on any of the features or guarantees of relational databases. Unlike every other database, NuoDB is built for the cloud from the ground up on an emergent architecture - a shared nothing, asynchronous, peer-to-peer approach that is ideal for the cloud, yet it delivers the power, reliability and functionality of a traditional database.

In Barry's presentation, you will learn more about NuoDB, its emergent architecture, how it works, and what benefits it provides compared to other database solutions.
