Agenda

We intend to talk about the next chapter in parallel computing, about the technology all of our sites are going to use in the next few years.

Goals

What should people come away from your session with?

Utter shock as everything they knew about computing is about to turn upside down.

Resources

What resources related to you session should people be aware of?

I guess everyone heard of "cloud computing", Amazon AWS, Google AppEngine... lesser known is CouchDB. Reading this lecture is very useful as well.

Speakers

David Strauss and chx are going to map and reduce the crowd (ie people will run screaming from the radical ideas).
