Premiering in Berlin – BERLIN BUZZWORDS – Conference of High-Scalability

Berlin, 19 February 2010

On 7 - 8 June Berlin will host the very first Buzzwords, a new conference based on the thematic areas of scalable searches, NoSQL databases and distributed processing of large data volumes. Conference topics will range from current developments in the Apache Project Hadoop to open search engines such as Lucene, katta and Solr to NoSQL Projects such as CouchDB, Hbase and MongoDB.

“Dynamic communities, current web technologies and Open-Source Software are the areas we enjoy working in and with our long professional history working with and for the Open-Source community we were immediately ready to organise Berlin Buzzwords. In June 2010, we extend invitations to Berlin and are confident that we can create an event which will showcase all the facets of High-Scalability. We are looking forward to it.” were the word of Andreas Gebhard, organiser of Berlin Buzzword and general manager of newthinking communications GmbH.

The conference will feature keynote speakers, seminars and workshops. The presentations will target in particular developers in the High-Scalability sector. Members of individual projects will be able to hear about the latest developments in their field and High-Scalability user applications will be on show also. Leading industry figures will feature in the keynote speaker line-up, including Grant Ingersoll (PMC Chair Lucene, co-founder Lucid Imagination).

Organisers are expecting a turnout of approx. 300 participants and the exhibition space will offer guests the opportunity to engage with project developers as well as commercial end-users. Catering will be provided for.
