6:30pm - 7:15pm Discussion: "The End of an Architectural Era" (Michael Stonebraker & al); lead by Ginny Hendry

Read "The End of an Architectural Era" in the month leading up to ChicagoDB. Then, during the first part of our session we will discuss together highlights from this paper; what we found interesting, confusing and applicable to our every day work.

The paper is available from http://nosqlsummer.org/paper/end-of-architectural-era

7:30pm - 8:30pm Lightning Talks

We're going to mix it up a bit this month and do some lightning talks! Are you doing something cool with a NoSQL database? Are you scaling MySQL to unheard of heights? We want to hear about it!

If you're interested, send your name and talk title to ethan@ethangunderson.com. We'll be posting talks as we get them!

Here's what we have lined up so far:

• John Wood - Tenacity https://github.com/jwood/tenacity
• Ryan Briones - Redis for Better Database Design - Preview for WindyCityDB talk
