Presentation: You've built your application, so what next?

Track: Cool Companies / Time: Thursday 11:30 - 12:20 / Location: Berlage Zaal

We all have that Eureka moment when we build a product or feature that is wildly successful. The next challenge however, is to scale it - and very quickly. In this talk we will cover the basic traps of scaling using the current infrastructure stack and how technologies like MongoDB, the leader in the NoSQL market, can be used to scale on-demand your data persistence and caching layer.
