next NOSQL Summer meeting

[Mathijs Homminga]

Hi all,

The paper for next meeting is: "BASE: an Acid alternative"

http://nosqlsummer.org/paper/base-vs-acid

It's about trading some consistency for availability to improve scalability. Solution: use queues.

As an extra, you might want to read this related article:

Next meeting will be on Wednesday September 1st at 20:30.

Location: we have several options here (Paylogic, Clockwork, Kalooga..) but it would be nice to meet at a new place (RuG?).

Also, since this is called "a NOSQL Summer" and since fall is almost here (uhm.. check the weather), I propose we do one final meeting after next week. Perhaps we should combine that with some food (go out for diner together).

Cheers,

Mathijs
