*************************************** Hi Everyone, Here are the events happening this week.
We are adding more events on the regular, so be sure to check back at http://plancast.com/neo4j for updates throughout the month. If you have any questions regarding participation, feel free to email me at [email protected]. *Århus (Denmark) Presentation | The Web as Platform* Tuesday, 11 October 2011 @10:20 - 11:10 CEST The Web is now firmly established as the world's largest distributed application platform. In supporting today's most innovative businesses, a new breed of Web APIs is making content and services available for consumption and composition in ways that take advantage of the Web's architecture and proven capabilities. In this talk I'll summarise the path we've taken in recent years - from building applications *behind* the Web through to the emerging practice of building applications, services and APIs *of *the Web - before introducing some of the most important and successful strategies for building software on this platform. http://gotocon.com/aarhus-2011/presentation/The%20Web%20as%20Platform *Århus (Denmark) Presentation | Modeling with Graphs* Wednesday, 12 October 2011 @15:50 - 16:40 CEST Neo4j is a powerful and expressive tool for storing, querying and manipulating data. However modelling data as graphs is quite different from modelling data under with relational databases. In this talk we’ll cover modelling business domains using graphs and show how they can be persisted and queried in the popular open source graph database Neo4j. We'll contrast this approach with the relational model, and discuss the impact on complexity, flexibility and performance. We'll also discuss strategies for deciding how to proceed when a graph allows multiple ways to represent the same concept, and explain the trade-offs involved. As a side-effect, we'll examine some of the new tools for how to query graph data in Neo4j, and discuss architectures for using Neo4j in enterprise applications. http://gotocon.com/aarhus-2011/presentation/Modelling%20with%20Graphs? *Amsterdam Presentation | A Rapid Introduction to Neo4j* Friday, 14 October 2011 | 11:30 - 12:20 CEST Graph databases like Neo4j are an esoteric and powerful member of the NOSQL family. For highly connected data, graph databases can be thousands of times faster than relational databases, making Neo4j popular for managing complex data across many domains from finance to social, and telecoms to geospatial. This intensive one-day Neo4J tutorial provides a mixture of theory and hands-on practical sessions to demonstrate the capabilities of graph data and the Neo4j database. http://gotocon.com/amsterdam-2011/presentation/A%20rapid%20introduction%20to%20Neo4j<http://gotocon.com/amsterdam-2011/presentations/show_presentation.jsp?oid=3273> *Amsterdam Workshop | Neo4j Tutorial* Saturday, 15 October 2011 | 09:00 - 16:00 CEST Graph databases like Neo4j are an esoteric and powerful member of the NOSQL family.
