What, Where, and How of Polyglot Persistence

As we started embracing Big Data and NoSQL across a number of projects, it quickly became clear that one technology is not going to be a solution for all of our needs. In this talk we share our experiences with polyglot persistence. We begin by outlining the issues relational technology has with scalability and new data formats. We then illustrate the examples of dominant NoSQL technologies and how they fit into the big picture. We explore the polyglot persistence in the cloud and its relationship with Microservices.

You will benefit from getting a clear picture of what type of NoSQL data store is a good match for different data processing pieces of puzzle and how to make an optimal choice when selecting pragmatic polyglot solutions.
