    What is Membase? Website: http://www.couchbase.org/membase. From their about page, Membase is a component of the Couchbase project, which includes:

    • CouchDB, providing an HTTP REST based interface to a document storage database
    • Membase, a distributed key-value database management system, optimized for storing data behind interactive web applications. Membase automatically distributes (or "shards") data and I/O across servers
    • Memcached memory caching system
    • Moxi Server, providing a proxy layer between Membase Server and Memcached clients
    • Couchbase products based on these components

    I think this session will fit well right after Sudar Muthu's Memcache session with that providing a entry curve into the concept of in-memory caching.
