More about April's Talk:

In this talk we will first take a look at recent developments in the data access landscape. We will then see how the Spring Data project attempts to cover many of these developments. This is followed by a more detailed look at a couple of specific sub-projects and themes:

• building repositories with Spring Data JPA
• developing a data access layer with Spring Data MongoDB
• cross-store persistence with Spring Data Neo4j
• configuring your data access layer for deploying in the cloud
