By now you have been looking at the UC’s upcoming schedule. On Tuesday @ 2pm Yves and I are currently scheduled to present our presentation on Waffle Grid entitled: “Distributed Innodb Caching with memcached “ . When we submitted this topic, we had not yet come up with a name for the project, So we are really hoping one of the conference gods allows us to change it to something like “The Waffle Grid Project: Distributed Innodb Caching with memcached”. Speaking of changes something, my other accepted proposal a talk on Solid State Disk scheduled for Wednesday @ 2pm Entitled “SAN Performance on a Internal Disk Budget: The coming Solid State Disk revolution” (http://en.oreilly.com/mysql2009/public/schedule/detail/5991) went horribly wrong in the formatting department when I got lazy and copied the outline of a presentation I gave earlier this year on that topic. I really need to figure out who can change that to something more legible. Or something like:
“We will spend 45 minutes discussing the past, present, and future of Solid State Disk technologies. Specifically we will look at the performance of drives from Mtron, Memoright, and Intel. Paying special attention to DBT2, Sysbench, Orion and other disk based benchmarks. I will also touch on other technologies from Fusion IO, Texas Memory systems, Violin memory and others to compare and contrast various companies approaches to speeding up the disk IO layer. “
