In our industry the database is king and we we say database, more often than not we mean "relational database". This talk is a survey of the many alternatives to a relational database and the situations in which they can (and sometimes must) be used.
In this talk we'll discuss systems like MongoDB, CouchDB, Neo4J, Cassandra and others and how can they be used with your existing Java infrastructure
