CloudDB'09: Call for Participation

CloudDB 2009: Call for Participation The 1st International Workshop on Cloud-based Big-data Management (CloudDB-2009) Hong Kong, China Affiliated with the ACM 18th Conference on Information and Knowledge Management, CIKM 2009 http://www.clouddb.org/CloudDB09/ Overview Technology advances in communications, computation, and storage result in huge collections of data, capturing information of value to business, science, government, and society. The big-data is imposing big challenges on infrastructure for data storage which can achieve economical scaling to even more than Petabyte, massively parallel query execution, and facilities for analytical processing. Therefore, big-data management is perhaps the biggest innovation in computing in the last decade. Meanwhile, the rise of large data centers and cluster computers has created a new business model, cloud-based computing, where businesses and individuals can rent storage and computing capacity, rather than making the large capital investments needed to construct and provision large-scale computer installations. Cloud-based big-data storage and management is a rapidly expanding business. Whilst these emerging services have reduced the cost of data storage and delivery by several orders of m!null
