Presentation: Tweet"Cloud Datastore: A NoSQL Database at Google Scale"

Time: Thursday 10:40 - 11:25 / Location: To be announced

Google Cloud Datastore represents Google's multiple years of operating a planet-scale, reliable, and agile NoSQL system in the cloud. With petabytes of storage and serving 4.5 trillion operations every month, it offers schemaless design, transactional consistency, completely predictable performance, and a rich set of query features. This session will cover the design principles underpinning Cloud Datastore, the operational techniques we use to maintain its reliability, and its integration with the rest of the Google Cloud Platform. This session will also offer thoughts on consistency models applicable to any large-scale, multi-data-center storage deployment.
