Description:

Object databases like db4o are used widely and have all been a part of the recent "NoSQL" meme that is garnering some interest in the .NET world. db4o has been around since 2000, but has just recently achieved excellent support for .NET and Linq. This session will give you a brief code-focused introduction on the basics of db4o, and it will also attempt to address any trepidations and concerns that you might have as a longtime relational database user about db4o and object databases in general.
