If you can make it to Manhattan next Monday, please join me at the MongoDB Community Open House. The June 1 event is free and open to all. It runs from 3:30-6:30 p.m. just across the road from MongoDB World.

The MongoDB Community Open House, held at the New York Hilton Midtown, will feature technical presentations and sessions from key members of the MongoDB open source community. A reception will be held afterward featuring plenty of food, drink and fun. Everyone who attends the will get a cool t-shirt, too. Space is limited, though, so I suggest registering now to reserve your spot.

The talks include:

• “MATH is Hard: TTL Index Configuration and Considerations,” by Kim Wilkins of Rackspace
• “Implementing MongoDB 3.0 Storage Engine,” with Facebook’s Igor Canadi and Christian Rober of Percona
• “Is it Fast: Measuring MongoDB Performance,” by Tim Callaghan of Acme Benchmarking
• “MongoDB for MySQL Users,” by Percona’s Alexander Rubin
• “Rolling out RocksDB in Production,” by Charity Majors of Facebook
• “Percona TokuMX and Percona TokuMXSE Performance Benefits,” by Percona’s Jon Tobin

In addition to the free t-shirts, food and drinks, we’ll also be raffling off some prizes, including a full-access pass to Percona Live Amsterdam, to be held this coming September 21-23. Our autumn conference, moved to a new month and venue by popular demand, will be bigger and better than ever with great speakers, tutorials and sessions around MySQL, NoSQL and data in the cloud.

The MongoDB Community Open House will be especially valuable for those unable to attend MongoDB World for budgetary reasons. Our intent is to make MongoDB World even better by adding more technical content. And if you are attending MongoDB World, I invite you to drop in even if only for a session or two.

I hope to see you Monday in NYC!

The many hours of intensive tutorials, led by some of the top minds in MySQL, have always been a major draw each year to the Percona Live MySQL Conference and Expo. And 2015’s event will be no exception.

Percona Live 2015 runs April 13-16 in Santa Clara, Calif. and the first day is dedicated to the classroom – so bring your laptops for the combined 45 hours of learning. MySQL tutorials are included with the full-conference pass but a “tutorial-only pass” is also available. Super-saver registration discounts have been extended until Dec. 19. Here’s a look at this year’s tutorials lineup. (There will be a couple more announced in January).
