The call for papers for the 2006 MySQL Users‘ Conference is open. I‘m chairing the “Java” track, and am appealing to all of you users out there with a MySQL and Java story that you‘d be willing to share to submit a case study talk (or a technical talk).
I know there‘s interesting stuff out there that others would like to hear about. I‘ve heard of folks with 10‘s of thousands of transactions/second in the mailing lists, I know weather.com runs Tomcat and MySQL, Feedburner runs Tomcat and MySQL and serves up huge volumes of RSS feeds with very few machines, etc, etc. I‘d love to be able to hear about some of these folks‘ experiences (and I imagine you would too!), so if you know anybody that is interested in presenting on this kind of stuff, let them know about the CFP - http://www.mysqluc.com/cs/mysqluc2006/create/e_sess/
