Hello all, My daughters headed back to school this week, so Fall must be just around the corner… perfect time for another heat wave to hit here in Pennsylvania.
Community Projects The end of the (northern hemisphere) summer means our interns are wrapping up their work. I spent time with a group of four this summer as they made some very helpful changes to our Bitemp Demo, turning it into a Bitemp Explorer<https://github.com/marklogic/bitemp-explorer>. This application is intended to help people understand how the Bitemporal features<http://developer.marklogic.com/features/bitemporal> work. Work continues, but take a look if you'd like a better sense of how this feature works. Want an easy way to explore a data set? The Slush MarkLogic generator<https://github.com/marklogic/slush-marklogic-node> is used to build proof-of-concept systems using MarkLogic, Node.js, and AngularJS. I kicked this project off in May 2014, and I'm happy to say the project now lists 10 contributors<https://github.com/marklogic/slush-marklogic-node/graphs/contributors>! (I've since turned the project over to others.) They've worked recently to revise the structure of the AngularJS code and to make the project generator more flexible. There are plenty of feature requests if you'd like to help out. (Slush<http://slushjs.github.io/#/> is a project generator driven by plugins.) DMC Mike Wooldridge explains How MarkLogic Supports ACID Transactions<http://developer.marklogic.com/blog/how-marklogic-supports-acid-transactions> while still giving the performance and reliability we've come to expect. If you've always wondered how that worked, check it out. (You'll also notice that we now have social media buttons at the end of each post to make it easier to share great content with your colleagues.) Adam Fowler looked at the Key/Value family of NoSQL databases<https://adamfowlerml.wordpress.com/2015/08/14/hybrid-nosql-key-value-use-cases/> and how MarkLogic can handle those use cases. Mats Stellwall takes a look at analytics applications of MarkLogic<http://nosqlbloggen.se/projekt/r-du-redo-for-analys/> (Swedish, Google translation here<https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=sv&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fnosqlbloggen.se%2Fprojekt%2Fr-du-redo-for-analys%2F&edit-text=>). Events If you're interested in what it looks like to use JavaScript in every tier, there are three September Meetups where you can find out. Join us in London<http://www.meetup.com/MarkLogic-User-Group-UK/events/224203193/>, Berlin<http://www.meetup.com/MarkLogic-User-Group-NoSQL-Database-Technology/events/224305701/>, and Washington, DC<http://www.meetup.com/Mark-Logic-User-Group/events/224562171/>. (If the topic sounds good, but isn't in your city, ask your local Meetup to host it.) On September 10th in Stuttgart, the German MarkLogic Meetup will present "Blitzschnelle Analyse von heterogenen Daten<http://www.meetup.com/MarkLogic-User-Group-NoSQL-Database-Technology/events/224635316/>" (Lightning-fast analysis of heterogeneous data). That same day in London, Norm Walsh will discuss the Management API and XProc 2.0<http://www.meetup.com/muglondon/events/223818220/>. Are you part of a Meetup that would be interested in a general introduction to NoSQL? We've got materials for that. (Yes, it includes MarkLogic; no, it isn't about us exclusively.) -- Dave Cassel<http://davidcassel.net>, @dmcassel<https://twitter.com/dmcassel> Technical Community Manager MarkLogic Corporation<http://www.marklogic.com/> http://developer.marklogic.com/
