NoSQL Berlin Debrief

On October 22nd, ’09 Isabel, Thomas and I ran NoSQL Berlin. In summary it was “awesome”. Read on.

We had speakers and attendees travelling as far as from New York to attend. About 80 people were attending in the standing-room-only newthinking Store. Thanks all for showing up!

Additional thanks to all speakers for their great presentations. And special thanks to our sponsors Peritor, SoundCloud, StudiVZ, Versant & Sociomantic.
