Couchbase, Inc., provider of the most complete NoSQL database, today announced a $60 Million series E round of financing. The round was led by two new investors, WestSummit and Accel Growth Fund and brings the total amount of Couchbase funding to $115 Million. All existing venture capital investors also participated in this round of financing.
The new investment is further evidence of the growth of the global big data market which is segmented into two halves: operational data management, largely led by NoSQL vendors and analytical data processing, led by Hadoop vendors. The operational data management segment of big data is starting to accelerate at a much faster pace, driven by large enterprise adoption of NoSQL.
"Global adoption of NoSQL for operational big data initiatives is just beginning. Business have spent years trying to get Oracle to efficiently scale, or looked to MongoDB to experiment with small projects on non relational infrastructures," said Bob Wiederhold, CEO Couchbase. "But, as these companies become more dependent on applications that simply cannot perform or scale on MongoDB or Oracle, they are turning to Couchbase. That is because Couchbase Server is designed and built to deliver the scale and performance needed by next generation infrastructure."
Couchbase Uniquely Positioned to Win Operational Big Data Market Share
IDC predicts that the market for big data will reach $16.1 billion in 2014, growing 6 times faster than the overall IT market, with software accounting for 24% of the big data market. While Hadoop drives the analytical segment of big data, NoSQL is the catalyst for operational data management. Rapid acceleration in the growth of the NoSQL market is driven by multiple factors, the biggest being enterprise adoption of next generation architectures that support big data initiatives.
"Accel is interested in finding the leaders for the big data market," said Kevin Efrusy, Partner at Accel Partners. "Couchbase is in a great position to disrupt the database market. It is building momentum with Oracle replacements and demonstrating continued competitive success over other NoSQL vendors."
Couchbase is uniquely positioned to become the de facto general purpose NoSQL database of choice. Its flagship product, Couchbase Server, is architected to consolidate multiple layers of functionality delivering the simplicity of a key value database, the flexibility of a document database and the read speed of an in-memory database. This layer consolidation means Couchbase Server is singularly able to support multiple big-data use cases, making it an ideal choice for enterprises re-platforming for their next generation projects on a single infrastructure that is future-proof and cost effective.
Evolving Mobile Revolution
Support for mobile applications is at the top of every IT agenda, and these mobile initiatives are evolving to include new requirements. A typical mobile data strategy even a year ago, assumed that data would be kept in the cloud. But now there is a shift happening at an accelerating pace, where data needs to be always available. That creates a requirement for storing big data on a device, machine, wearable, etc. and being able to sync it with data stored in the cloud, or on other devices.
With its May launch of Couchbase Mobile, Couchbase leapfrogged the competition by delivering an end-to-end operational big data management platform that supports both cloud and edge based computing. With Couchbase Mobile, enterprises have the ability to manage data via the world's first and only NoSQL mobile database, and if needed, sync data to the cloud through Couchbase Sync Gateway. With its first-to-market NoSQL mobile database, Couchbase is positioned to take significant share of the huge mobile market.
Investing in Growth
Couchbase has experienced incredible growth over the past year. Sales have increased 400%, the company has doubled its employee base, added 8 offices around the world and won strategic deals at large enterprise accounts. Couchbase will use this new round of funding to further its lead in innovation, as well as enabling global enterprise adoption of NoSQL and big data initiatives. This will include continued product investments, expanded regional technical support operations and scaling its marketing and sales teams.
Both investment funds are new to supporting Couchbase. Accel Growth III is a new $1 billion fund focused on investing in later stage companies that are driving important new trends in technology adoption. WestSummit is funded by its partners located across the US and China. Leveraging its strong global network, it focuses on helping build growth stage technology companies into global market leaders. Raymond Yang, co-founder and managing partner at WestSummit will join the Couchbase Board of Directors.
"Our investment in Couchbase is testament to our belief that organizations around the world are moving to next generation architectures," said Raymond Yang, Co-Founder and Managing Partner at WestSummit. "China, and broader Asia, represent a huge market, and we believe Couchbase is well positioned to take leading share of this opportunity. As an investor and board member, I'm looking forward to supporting their APAC growth."

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural styles ...

Jay-Z Still Calling Women Bitches: Right or Wrong?by Free Britney at . Comments
Last week, a report surfaced that in light of the birth of his daughter Blue Ivy Carter, Jay-Z would no longer be referring to women as bitches in his lyrics.
The story was met with universal praise. Too bad it was false.
Jay-Z personally told the New York Daily News that the story was fake. While he did not formally announce that he will continue to call women bitches, by denying the contrary, implicitly, the message is that he may continue to do so at will.
The words attributed to Jay-Z may have been fake, but the response of countless fans to what they thought was his change of direction was still very real.
Is it wrong for the new father to continue to use the word "bitch" (among other more choice words)? When Blue's mom is such a champion of strong girls?
Jay is far from the only rapper to face such criticism, of course.
Eminem, a father of multiple daughters, has defiantly said that music is art and his lyrics are not a reflection of him as a person or the way he treats women.
Still, for a lyrical maestro like Jay, would anyone object if he omitted a few degrading terms? Should he be expected to, considering what his craft is?
You tell us: Is it okay for Jay-Z to call women bitches?
@Kadenze, men like jayz you never pay them no mind. Why be so upset when most of our men are being stereotyping to us black women? I don't hate my brother's, i just think it crazy to hang on to some type of nasty bitter from our black men. It is not never the other race of women fault. Cause we both know that most of our men talk from the side of their neck and be lying to other race of women about us. Whenever run into one of our black man, if he start commenting that us black women always have nasty attitude, let him have that battle. Black men will always stereotype us black women. Look at kobe, he is getting what all coming to him. And whenever come across a ignorant women on a website, let them have that crazy battle.
To be real, alot of women can act like bitches when apear to have a very bad attitude. The thing is, i do have a female dog and i dont want to call her bitch when that who my dog is. Even tho im a black woman, i would like for our men not to call us bitches. Because they should know that they was not born from a bitch, why call female women that? Jayz have a baby girl and by now he should know how to respect other women. So that just tell you alot about jayz and what kind of nutt he can be. That goes to all other men too, for using the word bitch to all women.
kadenze that is because a lot of you ARE bitches! ha!
This is my the world sees Black Woman as the least attractive!
We are being degraded by our own men! When a black man becomes successful what do they do? Marry a white
women and why is that? Because we have Jay-Z and other rappers
to thank for depicting us as bitches!
jay-z is an ass, pure and simple. guy used to deal drugs. i don't give a crap what this idiot has to say. F him!
what a load of SHIT, now that he has a baby is where the line is drawn? If anything that makes me think he's a bigger peace of shit than i thought he was. what about the respect for his wife? generalizing all women as bitches is the most ignorant thing i've ever heard as much as it is for a woman to refer to all men as assholes. what a douche bag, if he had any respect for his wife or for his mother he would never refer to women as "bitches" in a general ignorant statement.. i know some women are bitches, but this is just making many think now that he had absolutely no respect at all for women (including the women in his life he supposedly loves) until his daughter was born.? what a load of it, he can fuck off with dat BS.
@LMK so what if some women act like real bitches??? That doesn't mean he should call them bitches!!! Do women walk on four legs?? I think not. Jay-Z has no right calling women bitches who is he to judge?????
Jay-Z has a daughter now he should open his bloody eyes and realize that by referring to women as bitches someday when his kid grows older she to would be referred to as a bitch. There's many husbands/boyfriends that probably hates Jay-Z language towards women so I'd say if Jay-Z respected his wife and kid he'd shut that black hole that he calls mouth!!!!!!
People are assuming he's calling ALL women bitches. He doesn't refer to his wife that way and I'm sure he doesn't call his daughter baby bitch. There are some women who have no self-respect and act like bitches, why should he avoid the truth? There are bitches in the world. And why would you take it personally if you aren't one?
c'mon man! callin' woman a b1tch is as level as if someone calling you with 'n' word! r u a retard jay-z??

Enthusiasm for the Internet of Things has reached an all-time high. In 2013 alone, venture capitalists spent more than $1 billion dollars investing in the IoT space. With "smart" appliances and devices, IoT covers wearable smart devices, cloud services to hardware companies. Nest, a Google company, detects temperatures inside homes and automatically adjusts it by tracking its user's habit. These technologies are quickly developing and with it come challenges such as bridging infrastructure gaps, abiding by privacy concerns and making the concept a reality. These challenges can't be addressed w...

Explosive growth in connected devices. Enormous amounts of data for collection and analysis. Critical use of data for split-second decision making and actionable information. All three are factors in making the Internet of Things a reality. Yet, any one factor would have an IT organization pondering its infrastructure strategy. How should your organization enhance its IT framework to enable an Internet of Things implementation? In his session at Internet of @ThingsExpo, James Kirkland, Chief Architect for the Internet of Things and Intelligent Systems at Red Hat, described how to revolutioniz...

The definition of IoT is not new, in fact it's been around for over a decade. What has changed is the public's awareness that the technology we use on a daily basis has caught up on the vision of an always on, always connected world. If you look into the details of what comprises the IoT, you'll see that it includes everything from cloud computing, Big Data analytics, "Things," Web communication, applications, network, storage, etc. It is essentially including everything connected online from hardware to software, or as we like to say, it's an Internet of many different things. The difference ...

Upcoming Shows
December 3, 2014 - January 3, 2015
Opening Reception: December 3, 6-8pm
Main Gallery
New works by RayKo's fall Artists-in-Residence: Vanessa Marsh and Jessica Skloven
RayKo Photo Center's Residence Program was developed to continue our support and education of fine art photographers. Selected artists receive unlimited access to RayKo's facilities for a six-month time period, with each artist's residency culminating in an exhibition in our gallery. Past residents have included Eric William Carroll, Klea McKenna, and Meghann Riepenhoff. This fall's residents continue on the path less taken. Both Vanessa Marsh and Jessica Skloven have spent countless hours in our color darkrooms making chromogenic prints, a process and a skill that many have forsaken in this digital age of photography.
Vanessa Marsh actually goes so far as to make her own negatives…painting and drawing on layers of acetate and paper and film and combining them all in the darkroom to create large nighttime landscapes inspired by an amateur interest in cosmology and physics. These dark skies with saturated celestial patterns of invented galaxies and nebula speak to our mediated experience of the night sky and nature in general. Colors, assigned to gasses and light waves that the naked eye cannot see, are presented and consumed as truth. Giant mural c-prints of these invented scenes build on Vanessa's interest in translating drawings and paintings into photographic form.
Jessica Skloven is exposing 4x5 sheets of color film…but not in any traditional manner. She slips the sheets of film under the covers, under pillows, in between sheets…these images are created without the confines of a camera, without control and without the essential aspect of what makes a correct photograph – focused light. They are made sometimes over long periods of time, buried deep under layers, being exposed with tiny light from dark windows and ambient spills from careless LCD screens. In many cases, they are failures, images built up too densely to view or left for too little time without enough light to imprint them. The process is one embedded in ritual. Perhaps an exercise in anti-documenting, these are photographs as uncertain objects, records of instability in an attempt to pin down a constant.
They are just slow light leaking onto plastic.
Jessica's work centers around the material relationship between the illusions that occur in the natural world and those that are produced—both in the act of photographing and in the re-constitution of those images when they are transferred to paper. Using photographic process, she imagines the simultaneous impossibility of the abstract and the familiarity of the real, precariously combining to counter photography's often-presumed objectivity. The resulting c-prints are sublime and sensual, drawing the viewer into their mysteries.
Come view these two dynamic artists' images and question the future and the direction of photography all over again.
Also, 2013 Artist-in-Residence McNair Evans will be at RayKo during the reception signing copies of his new monograph.

City College of San Francisco's portfolio class
While color palette or technical prowess might attract a viewer's eye, it's often the
suggestion of a story, or an intrigue about the artist as a person that holds an
onlooker's attention. A solid portfolio does just that: showcases skill, while giving a
glimpse of the artist's character. Images must each be of high quality, and must
interact in such a way that cohesion is formed.
Come view selections from the City College of San Francisco's portfolio class and meet the artists on opening night!
"Common ground," the concept, seems like a mythical, unoccupied realm in these divisive times. Common Ground, the book, reminds us there are meaningful ties that connect us to each other and our communities. The story follows two families living on the same plot of land, but many years apart. Juxtaposed photos limn the commonalities that bind these families across space and time. Longtime farmers Harlow and Jean Cagwin sold their land, after decades of ownership, to a developer who turned it into a subdivision. Then Grabenhofers, with their four children, bought a home on the site where the Cagwin's farmhouse once stood.
Pulitzer Prize winning photojournalist, Scott Strazzante, captures the simple yet profound moments that show how these two families who seem to live worlds apart nevertheless share a common bond . . . a common experience . . . a common ground - as, indeed, we all do. Maybe more so than we realize.
"...the book's unique strength is as a document about the past and present, the transformation of the American landscape and, as the title suggests, the human story that remains constant and connected through time, lying in the side-by-side or back-to-back pairings of small moments in these families' lives." - Evelyn Nieves / Lens / The New York Times

Tottenham Hotspur Head Coach Andre Villas-Boas could be about to get one over his former employers Chelsea by beating the Champions League winners to the signing of Shakhtar Donetsk midfielder Willian, according to the Daily Mail.
Willian is said to be a long-standing target of Chelsea, who had an offer rejected by Shakhtar for the player earlier this summer. The Brazilian is understood to be keen on a move to Stamford Bridge but could now face the choice of a switch instead to White Hart Lane.
Shakhtar are thought to be demanding £19m to part with the 23-year-old and Tottenham, who had lined up a transfer for Internacional midfielder Oscar before Chelsea gazumped their London rivals, could be willing to meet the asking price of the Ukrainian side.
Willian has been at Shakhtar since 2007, winning the Ukrainian Premier League in 2008, 2010 and 2011, the Ukrainian Cup in 2008 and 2011 and the UEFA Cup in 2009. He also has two caps for Brazil.

I would like to say this is the first time I have seen this particular article associated with my name and had they asked my opinion on same sex marriage I would have resounded that I believe it is not any of my business what two adults would like to legally do. As I sincerely believe it is not my business, I voted for the right of everyone to chose who they wanted to be married to, same sex, different sex, who cares. An harmonious society/existence is what matters! And hugs & kisses to all my friends who have found love, no matter where!!!

Have you heard the song about "Too Much Stuff"?
I feel that way sometimes. I have lots of stuff, not as much as some, but way more than others. And I feel guilty about it.
Part of my problem is figuring out what's stuff and what's junk. I hate junk. It serves no purpose whatever except to take up room and make my house — and closet — look cluttered. I definitely have too much junk.
But I have trouble getting rid of anything. I keep thinking I might use these things some day, even though I know the chances are slim to none.

Miroslav Klose back for Germany vs France in World Cup - 0 Comments
RIO DE JANEIRO — Germany recalled veteran striker Miroslav Klose and dropped center back Per Mertesacker among a slew of changes for its World Cup quarterfinal match against France on Friday.
Thomas Mueller drops back to the wing to accommodate Klose, who gets another chance to break the World Cup scoring record of 15 goals that he currently shares with Brazil great Ronaldo.
Mats Hummels returns at center back in place of Mertesacker and Philipp Lahm moves to right back instead of center midfield, where Sami Khedira will partner Bastian Schweinsteiger.

Happy Thanksgiving!
Ornamental squash and gourd Thanksgiving table arrangements are an American tradition. Cornucopias are available in a variety of sizes and adorn dining room tables during the holiday festivities.
Church members and visitors enter through welcoming vestibules.
They frequently view cornucopia-horn of plenty arrangements where they enter and in the sanctuary.
The cornucopia is a symbol of a bountiful harvest, serving as a reminder of how much the heavenly Father blesses us through fruit and produce of the land.
With grateful heart, I pray that you and I will be cornucopia Christians, filled to overflowing with fruit of the Spirit.
"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith, gentleness, self-control. Against such things there is no law (Galatians 5:22-23 HCS)."
We have Christ's promise of an abundant life; He is pleased when we as His followers blend in unity to bear fruit and demonstrate His love.
[Image:Vintage Postcards]
Turkey is the star of the Thanksgiving Day menu and will soon make guest appearances on America's dining room tables.
Who gets the drumstick?
Our generation selects most turkeys from a grocer's freezer section. For the most part, the days of hunting wild turkeys with bow and arrow are only a faint memory.
My memory takes me back to the late 1950's. Our neighbors, the Wells family, owned a turkey farm. The fowls were brilliant white but their odor was foul (to say the least).
On Thanksgiving Day, Mom's kitchen smelled scrumptious. Scents of freshly butter-basted turkey, homemade dressing, turnips, pumpkin and mince pies were tantalizing.
I wonder…
Are our prayers of thanksgiving a pleasing aroma to the Father?
"May my prayer be counted as incense before Thee; the lifting up of my hands as the evening offering (Psalms 141:2 NAS)."
{Dad, Franklin F. Ford}
The reason is easily discerned.
Our veterans once stood tall and trustworthy in uniform.
Will we stand silent to the sacrifices they made for our freedom?
Israel had a decided advantage; a vast army of valiant men provided protection.
"The sons of Reuben, the Gadites, and half the tribe of Manasseh had forty-four thousand seven hundred and sixty valiant men, men able to bear shield and sword, to shoot with the bow, and skillful in war, who went to war (1 Chronicles 5:18 NKJ)."
There is strength in numbers but God's power is greater still.
"…they cried out to God in the battle. He heeded their prayer, because they put their trust in Him (1 Chronicles 5:20b NKJ)."
I ponder the imponderable.
"For the word of God is living and effective and sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating as far as to divide soul, spirit, joints and marrow; it is a judge of the ideas and thoughts of the heart. No creature is hidden from Him, but all things are naked and exposed to the eyes of Him to whom we must give an account (Hebrews 4:12-13 HCS)."
Unsheathe your God given sword!
"Take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is God's word (Ephesians 6:17 HCS)."
It was a simple glance at a thermos bottle.
My husband had brought in from the car. I've seen it countless times, filled it with steaming coffee and rinsed it out at the sink after each use. Why was this time any different? Today, it brought back memories of Dad. He carried a lunch box and thermos of coffee with him to work. I didn't see an everyday thermos; I saw yesterday with Dad.
I do not live in the past; yet God paints my present with deep memories of days gone by. In His mercy, God removes most painful memories of regret. In their place, He sends the lingering smile of my sister Donna, Mom's voice in long-distance calls or Dad welcoming me home at the kitchen screen door.
Lest we forget, scriptures contain many references to memorials and remembrance.
"And He took bread, gave thanks, broke it, gave it to them, and said, 'This is My body, which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of Me. In the same way He also took the cup after supper and said, 'This cup is the new covenant established by My blood; it is shed for you (Luke 22:19-20 HCS)."
Knitted Together by God, a well-established ministry site is seeking additional devotional writers.
There is no monetary compensation but this is a wonderful opportunity to share your talent and testimony!

Any more soldiers coming home?
Well, now that Cheeto received it, I can post a pic of what we sent him. Not all of these items made it into the box....there simply was not enough room.
We also sent him another box equally full of goodies for the Secret Santa swap, but I never took a picture. We sent him, coffee (french roast, and Jack Daniels flavored), a french press(for the coffee), all beef summer sausage (no pork products allowed), a mini christmas tree, doughnuts, misc snacks, A Belgian (chocolate bar, not beer), chicken Vienna sausages, etc, etc., etc.
This goes without saying....
but that is SO DAMN COOL. HBTers, You rock so hard. I know Cheeto was grinning ear to ear when he unpacked this. SO DAMN COOL.
:rock: :rock: :rock:
And major kudos, Talley, for all your work on this project!
Home brewer and a west coast frogman that would like to get involved.
Sent Petey a box of goodies last week. The green flip tops are from Soperbrew. The Wit is labeled W, Belgian Pale Ale is A (BYO Antwerp ale from June, it's very good with age), Triple Six Oaked Tripel is the T. I'm probably forgetting one or two. Let me know if you want any of the recipes. I also included some local micros. Hope you enjoy for the holidays.
Well guys, I've been home on leave for 12 days now. I head back to the box on saturday. I just want to say how cool it is that you guys are doing this. I know I have received packages from loved ones and they are always great. Cant wait for my return and getting back to brewing!
BTW Picasa Web Albums - Matt I have put a bunch of pictures up of me in Iraq A lot of them are from a WWE event that they did over there and I got lucky enough to be on the stage crew
BTW guys, if you know anyone who wants to help soldiers, anyonesoldier.com is a good place to get names of people over there and you can send them care packages
I wish I would have know about this earlier! I got back from a 13 month tour back in NOV08 and the whole time I dreamed about brewing. I am glad to be on this forum and have gained so much knowledge, and have had just as many laughs. I would have love to be able to see where my brew stands against some veteran brewers like yours. That would be a way to learn as well. I will be off to Germany in JUL09 and that will be an adventure in its own!
A few things that I loved while deployed...
Food spices (as said before) ie, tapatio, and homemade hot sauces are great (hotter the better, entertainment as well as flavor)
Jerky (homemade was always appreciated the most)
Magazines were also awesome.
Cup o noodles and the like were great as well.
I can promise what ever you send will be enjoyed and shared, HONESTLY the action itself really means a lot. The fact that this is even happening is very inspiring. I was in a hostile beer-less nation, I can't think of anything more patriotic then what you are doing!
Let me know whose coming back and what I need to do to send out some of my n00b homebrew. I think I might be able to share a sixer or so...
God Bless you all and Cheers Cake! Happy brewing!

Local Bands Getting TV, Film Exposure
By Alison Babka
Call it the Sharon Jones effect: Funk bands are no longer able to make waves based solely on instrumental prowess and stone-cold groovesmanship — they must have a vocal powerhouse to take center stage. California's Orgone knows this; the ten-person band labored as an instrumental unit for years before taking on Fanny Franklin as its lead vocalist. Franklin tempers her soulful delivery with a little modern R&B flavor, so don't expect slavish re-creations of funk's formative years. Do expect, however, loving nods to the Stax, Fania and Josie record labels with enough modern flair and muscle to keep things current.
Speaking of Sharon Jones: Orgone received the blessing from Jones and her Dap-Kings when Orgone served as an opening band on the 2010 tour, including a show at the Pageant.

'Best in Show' federal agencies
Every year, different groups, associations and magazines publish their lists of best federal agencies, best places to work, etc. A few places are always near the top but the lists do change.
