In that article I introduced the NoSQL movement, MongoDB, and showed you how to program against it in.NET using LINQ and NoRM. For ease-of-use, you’ll have to want to read the original article. This article is about the performance argument for MongoDB over SQL Server (or MySql or Oracle). In the first article, I threw out a potentially controversial graph showing MongoDB performing 100 *times* better than SQL Server for inserts. Those were. Your Turn. Michael C.

Articles ASP.NET Open Source Talks Tools web2.0Maybe you’ve heard people talking about ditching their SQL Servers and other RDBMS entirely. There is a movement out in the software development world called the "No SQL" movement and it’s taking the web application world by storm. Insanity!” you may cry, “for where will people put their data if not in a database? Flat files? Tell me we aren’t we going back to flat files.”.

Kennedy's Weblog - Thursday, April 22, 2010 - 11 Killer Open Source Projects I Found with NuGet
Articles ASP.NET NoSQL Open Source Tools Visual StudioSo maybe I'm late to the party, but I recently started playing with NuGet. It's a killer new way to find, install, maintain, and manage references to open source libraries in Visual Studio 2010.

My experience is they are either dated or about Linux and so on. First, briefly why does one care about EC2? That's a great reason and Microsoft and Google have interesting plays there too. Personally I just want a simpler way to create virtual machines. Here we go. Michael C. Kennedy's Weblog - Saturday, January 30, 2010 - Building a Cloud OS for.NET Developers – Part 2

I’ve been to two conferences this week! The first was Agile Dev Practices in Potsdam, outside of Berlin. At I presented my Retrospective Dialogue Sheets (www.dialoguesheets.com) , well I say presented, it was 10 minutes of introduction, 60 minutes of attendees doing Dialogue Sheets and 20 minutes wrap up. Anyone who has attended one of my Dialogue Sheet sessions will recognise the format. Which also means there aren’t a lot of slides for download. Allan Kelly's Blog - Friday, March 8, 2013 | -
