Speaker 1: Brendon Page

Applying Big Data Thinking to Normal Sized Data

It seems like that every time I look there is a new DB that can do something awesome for me. All I have to do is give it all my data, however moving my data is hard! On top of that if I move my data out of my current DB then I lose all the stuff my current DB is gives me that this new awesome one doesn’t. Why can't I have it all? Well the good news is that with a little effort and a little shift in thinking you can have it all … okay well you can have most of it.





Speaker 2: Elmans van Wyk
