Hello HBasers, Hadoop World 2011 (Nov 8th & 9th) is coming up soon and a bunch of Hadoop and HBase users would be attending it. We are having a meetup the evening before Hadoop World (Nov 7th) to talk about HBase and Hadoop topics that are not going being covered in the Hadoop World sessions.
The details of the meetup are as follows: Date: Nov 7th 2011 Time: 6pm - 8:30pm (we can hang out after that if people want to) Venue: AppNexus, 28 West 23rd St, 5th Floor, New York, NY The intention is to have 3-4 short talks (~15 mins each), followed by some unconference style sessions. If you are interested in giving a talk or suggesting a topic that you would want to discuss there, let us know. It would be awesome to hear about your use cases, experiences, challenges, learnings etc with HBase.
