The 5th Extremely Large Databases Conference & Workshop (XLDB 2011)

PlanetData is supporting its partner CWI on participating the 5th XLDB Conference & Workshop on October 18-20, 2011. It was held in SLAC, Menlo Park, CA, USA. In response to the exploding need for systems and tools capable of managing and analysing extremely large data sets, we are organizing the 5th Extremely Large Database Conference.

The main goals of the conference are:

• Encourage and accelerate the exchange of ideas between users trying to build extremely large databases worldwide and database solution providers.
• Share lessons, trends, innovations, and challenges related to building extremely large databases.
• Facilitate the development and growth of practical technologies for extremely large databases.
• Strengthen, expand, and engage the XLDB community.

This year, the XLDB conference focuses on practical solutions.
