When to Avoid CQRS (Udi Dahan)
CQRS is Too Complicated (Rob Ashton)
"I think the main problem with DDD and CQRS is that they are misappropriately used. The vast majority of systems do not need this level of sophistication. What is more worrying is that .NET has adopted CQRS as their new and shinny.
I shudder at people using either for CRUD but I suspect it does happen."
--Paul Cowan

Caltech Event - Big Data, Big Opportunities: Predicting the Future One Byte at a Time
187 days
Event Abstract:
It’s raining data. Actually, it’s more like a hurricane.
Every website, email, SMS text, mouse click, download and online purchase generates data, a lot of data.
This data is being assembled into massive data sets and used by scientists, researchers, companies and the government to develop new products, predict epidemics, understand consumer behavior and formulate public policies.
Entrepreneurs are pursuing these “Big Data” opportunities in what is becoming the 21st century equivalent of the gold rush.
Our speakers will share their views on the opportunities and challenges entrepreneurs face in building a Big Data venture.

CloudCamp LA 2012, CQRS and NoSQL
393 days
Cloud camp LA happened couple of weeks ago at the coresite campus in downtown LA. The highlights of the evening were Dave Nielsen's intro, Lynn Langit's NOSQL session, Bret Statham's CQRS (Command Query Responsibility Segregation) talk and coresite's datacenter tour.
Slides from Bret's lightning talk can be downloaded here.

I have attended cloudcamps organized by Dave Nielsen in the past but this particular event wasn't as organized as the one at Microsoft campus couple of years ago (and through no fault of his own). Dave is a Co-Founder of CloudCamp and author of the book PayPal Hacks. The event started late and hence the unconference style sessions and panels were cut short and disrupted. Lots of echo so it was hard to hear and topics which came out of un-conference discussion weren't quite diverse and well organized even for an unconference. However, the data center tour was fun!
and a much nicer write-up by morphlaps on CloudCamp LA – Why Open Source (and OpenStack) Matters To the Enterprise
I get to meet Jason Woloz who is heading up the Cloud security alliance LA chapter. The first meetup is coming soon. http://www.meetup.com/LASC-CSA/
